Extended Azithromycin Treatment in Prelabor Rupture of Membranes

The purpose of this study is to learn whether adding extra doses of azithromycin to the standard antibiotic treatment for preterm prelabor rupture of membranes may improve pregnancy outcomes for patients between 22 weeks and 28 weeks gestational age. Researchers will compare the standard antibiotic treatment to the standard antibiotic treatment with additional doses of azithromycin. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to one of two groups: * The standard antibiotic treatment * The standard antibiotic treatment plus 7 additional doses of oral azithromycin 500 mg every other day. * Participants will be asked to complete a survey regarding their experience and side effects.

Digital vs. Speculum Exams for PPROM

After preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM)\[breaking of the amniotic sac prior to 37 weeks gestation in pregnancy\], patients are recommended for inpatient admission and close monitoring for complications including preterm labor, intraamniotic infection (infection of the sac around the baby), and placental abruption (separation of the placenta from wall of the uterus). When evaluation of cervical dilation is clinically indicated, obstetricians traditionally perform sterile speculum exams due to concern for decrease in pregnancy latency (length of time between breaking the water and delivery) with sterile digital exams in retrospective studies. These studies are concerning, however, by the indications for the exams and are at risk for confounding by indication. This is a randomized, non-inferiority trial to examine if sterile digital versus speculum exams effect latency of pregnancy in patients with PPROM.

Antenatal Breastmilk Expression in Pregnant Women at High Risk of Preterm Birth

In this randomized controlled study, the investigators aim to examine if antenatal breastmilk expression (aBME) from week 28 in high-risk pregnancies is a safe and effective method to ensure early access to mother's own milk. In addition, this study will analyze and compare colostrum from pregnancy with colostrum after birth, investigates women's confidence in breastfeeding and breastfeeding establishment as well as measures oxytocin levels during aBME and active labour with no aBME.

Vaginal Probiotics During Pregnancy After Premature (24-32 Weeks of Gestation) Preterm Rupture of Membranes

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility of the randomized controlled trial (RCT). Secondary objectives include comparing the microbiota of preterm babies born after premature rupture of membranes across study groups. To achieve this, participants will be asked to: * Use the vaginal study product from the time of membrane rupture until delivery * Keep a diary documenting their symptoms and treatment adherence * Provide vaginal secretion samples and stool samples from their baby

Preterm Rupture of Membranes Optimising Antibiotics Trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which antibiotic regimen works best to prevent infection in pregnant women whose waters break early (preterm, pre-labour rupture of membranes, or PPROM) and assess the health outcomes of babies born to pregnant women who have received these antibiotics. PROMOAT aims to answer the question: Which antibiotic or combined antibiotic regimen most effectively prevents infection in pregnant women with PPROM \< 37+0 weeks' gestation. Researchers will compare three antibiotic regimens already used in clinical practice to prevent infection in pregnant women with PPROM. Participants will be randomly allocated to the antibiotic regimen they will follow for seven days, or until birth (whichever is earlier). All antibiotics will be taken orally. Neonatal health outcomes will be collected at 42 weeks postmenstrual age and maternal birth and postpartum care outcomes assessed at 42 days postpartum. Questionnaires will capture maternal mood at time of consent and at 42 days postpartum. Antibiotic tolerance will be assessed at the time antibiotic treatment is ceased. This trial will be undertaken as part of the PLATIPUS trial (NCT06461429).
