Official Title: Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Prelabor Rupture of Membranes at Term - a Randomized Controlled Trial

Brief Summary: The aims of this study are to determine whether antibiotics administered routinely in women presenting with premature rupture of membranes later than the 37+0 weeks of gestation can alter the rate of maternal and neonatal infection and to compare these rates between prompt (< 12 hour) and delayed (≥ 12 hour) induction in the group of patients not submitted to antibiotic prophylaxis.
