Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: Routine care: Placebo
In all pregnancies presenting at all centers, routine antenatal care will be strengthened:
Placebo tablets will be administered twice in pregnancy: at enrollment (<=24 weeks) and a follow up ANC visit at least 4 weeks later. |
Placebo 500mg (Idifarma): 2g (4 tablets) at 2 time points during pregnancy; enrollment (<24 weeks gestation), and follow up ANC at least 4 weeks later
|
Experimental: Routine care: Azithromycin
Azithromycin will be provided twice in pregnancy: at enrollment (<=24 weeks) and a follow up ANC visit at least 4 weeks later.
|
Azithromycin 500mg (Kern Pharma): 2g (4 tablets) at 2 time points during pregnancy: enrollment (<=24 weeks gestation), and follow-up ANC at least 4 weeks later
|
Experimental: Routine care: Enhanced Infection Management Package (EIMP)
At the study enrollment visit, pregnant women will receive presumptive deworming (albendazole) and screening for urinary tract infection and sexually transmitted infections (chlamydia and gonorrhea).
Women with identified infections will be treated with appropriate antibiotics.
A second dose of albendazole will be given at a follow up ANC visit at least 4 weeks after enrollment.
|
ENROLLMENT VISIT: Screening for bacteriuria with urine culture, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing; Screening for chlamydia and gonorrhea with Cepheid GeneXpert; Presumptive deworming with albendazole 500mg. FOLLOWUP TREATMENT VISIT: For women with identified urinary tract infection or asymptomatic bacteriuria, treatment with antibiotics based on antimicrobial susceptibility patterns. For women with identified chlamydia or gonorrhea, treatment of woman (and partner) with appropriate antibiotics. Test of cure sample and retreatment of infection. Second deworming with albendazole at least 4 weeks after enrollment ANC visit. |
Experimental: Enhanced Nutrition Package (ENP): Placebo
Pregnant women will receive a daily multiple micronutrient. Women with undernutrition, identified with mid-upper arm circumference <23 cm, will receive a daily fortified balanced energy protein supplement. Placebo tablets will be administered twice in pregnancy: at enrollment (<=24 weeks) and a follow up ANC visit at least 4 weeks later. |
Placebo 500mg (Idifarma): 2g (4 tablets) at 2 time points during pregnancy; enrollment (<24 weeks gestation), and follow up ANC at least 4 weeks later
Daily multiple micronutrient (MMN) tablet (Contract Pharmacal Corp) for women with mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) >=23 cm, OR Daily fortified balanced energy protein (BEP) supplement (DSM South Africa; Faffa Food Products): Fortified corn-soy blend (784 kcal/day) for women with MUAC <23 cm
|
Experimental: ENP: Azithromycin
Pregnant women will receive a daily multiple micronutrient. Women with undernutrition, identified with mid-upper arm circumference <23 cm, will receive a daily fortified balanced energy protein supplement. Azithromycin will be provided twice in pregnancy: at enrollment (<=24 weeks) and a follow up ANC visit at least 4 weeks later. |
