How does it work?
Gynecologists (ACOG) recommend culturing all women at 35-36 weeks of pregnancy for Group Beta Streptococcus presence. This bacteria can be found in approximately 10-30% of pregnant women. Women with positive cultures are greater than 25 times more likely to deliver babies that get sick from Group B strep than women with negative cultures, It is not reasonable to perform the test in labor because the results are not available for two days. Use the Midwife Group B Strep Consent mobile app to allow pregnant mothers to consent to Group Strep B antibiotic treatment.
