摘要
Intrapartum chemoprophylaxis is currently the most effective preventive strategy against the neonatal early-onset group B streptococcal infection. The principal controversies on strategies for intrapartum antibiotic administration, possible adverse effects, management of newborn and possible future preventive strategies reported in the literature are considered.
