A Randomized Double-blinded Trial Comparing the Impact of One Versus Two Courses of Antenatal Steroids on Neonatal Outcome in the Patient With Prelabor Premature Rupture of the Membranes

This trial hopes to prospectively evaluate the impact of one versus two courses of antenatal
steroids on the incidence of major neonatal morbidity in pregnant women with pre-labor
premature rupture of the membranes.

This is a multicenter randomized double blinded trial that hopes to prospectively evaluate
the impact of one versus two courses of antenatal steroids on the incidence of major neonatal
morbidity including respiratory distress syndrome in pregnant women with a singleton

membranes.
