| The purpose of the review was to find evidence-based guidelines and meta-analyses to work out the most effective therapy and introduce it as a standard intervention in the regional hospital. The reviewers showed that other drugs—nitrofurantoin and cephalosporines—are more strongly recommended for therapy than ampicyllin, which is currently used in the hospital. The review also stated that therapy of these infections in pregnant women should be started immediately, and that duration and dosing should be calculated based on the chosen drug., 5 pp. | |
