Abstract:

This study presents the results of a prospective cohort study involving 30 pregnant women at high risk of infectious complications. In the postpartum period, they were divided into two groups: the main group (n=14), which received a combined preventive approach, and the comparison group (n=16), which received standard antibiotic prophylaxis. Both groups were comparable in terms of age, somatic health, and obstetric and gynecological history. Comprehensive diagnostics included anamnesis analysis, clinical examination, microbiological testing, and instrumental diagnostic methods. The proposed combined prevention strategy, including intrauterine administration of a molded sorbent, significantly reduced bacterial contamination of the uterine cavity and improved outcomes compared to antibiotic prophylaxis alone.
