The results of microbiologic cultures from 186 vaginal samples obtained from 93 labouring women have been compared with the results of the microbiologic cultures from meconium of their newborns, to test possible risk-factors for IMF. The high frequency of positive cultures from vaginal samples (83.3%), constantly with strong bacterial charge, and the proved direct mother to foetus transmission for many potential pathogens (23.6%), cause various interpretative problems and require further studies.

Abstract

The results of microbiologic cultures from 186 vaginal samples obtained from 93 labouring women have been compared with the results of the microbiologic cultures from meconium of their newborns, to test possible risk-factors for IMF. The high frequency of positive cultures from vaginal samples (83.3%), constantly with strong bacterial charge, and the proved direct mother to foetus transmission for many potential pathogens (23.6%), cause various interpretative problems and require further studies.
