Researchers track dangerous bacteria in mothers and babies

NCT ID NCT01719510

Summary

This study aimed to understand how a specific, potentially more harmful strain of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) bacteria spreads and persists in mothers and their newborn babies. Researchers followed 949 mother-newborn pairs, collecting samples from mothers and babies over 60 days to track where and how long the bacteria stayed. The goal was to gather knowledge about infection risks, not to test a treatment or cure.
