Title: Trial of the Use of Antenatal Corticosteroids in Developing Countries
Brief Summary: Multi-country two-arm, parallel cluster randomized controlled trial to reduce neonatal mortality through increasing the rate of antenatal corticosteroid administration to eligible women.


Options:
A: This is an intent-to-treat design and thus all pregnancy outcomes of women who deliver in the study clusters and provide consent will be collected. Cluster-level inclusion criteria include

* At least 250 deliveries per year.
* Birth attendants within the health cluster will be consented to participate

Participant-level inclusion criteria include all pregnant women living in and delivering in the study cluster who:

* Are between 24 and 36 weeks GA;
* Present with signs of preterm labor, amniotic fluid leakage, hemorrhage, or hypertension;
* Provide consent for injection or present to a facility where it is standard of care.

Exclusion Criteria:

* There will not be any specific exclusion criteria for clusters or participants.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Preterm infants of ≤32 weeks of gestational
* Preterm infants ≤ 1500 gram of birth weight

Exclusion Criteria:

* Major congenital abnormalities
* Neurological dysfunction
* Infants who were mechanically ventilated and/or sedated, hemodynamically unstable
* Infants \> 32 weeks of gestational
* The infants whose parents denied consent were also not included.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female preterm infants with no limitation of race.
2. Gestational age 25(+0) - 31(+6) weeks.
3. Age 24-72 hours.
4. Echocardiographic evidence of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus at the first 24-72 hours of life.

   The diagnosis of hemodynamically significant PDA requiring treatment will be made by echocardiographic demonstration of a ductal left-to-right shunt, with a left atrium-to-aortic root ratio \>1.3 or a ductal size \>1.5 mm and excluding the cases in which the closing flow pattern suggests a restrictive PDA.
5. Willingness of the parents/legally authorized representative/child to sign the Consent Informed Form.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Outborn patients.
2. Major congenital anomalies, including but not limited to congenital heart defects, Down syndrome newborn and/or new born suffering from congenital anomalies diagnosed during the fetal period.
3. Known positive HIV and/or known positive Hepatitis C Virus newborn's mother.
4. Life threatening infection, complicated or not by multiple organ dysfunction and failure syndrome.
5. Fetal hydrops.
6. Pulmonary hypertension diagnosed in the first 24-48 hours of life by means of heart ultrasound when the presence of a right-to-left shunt through the foramen ovale or ductus arteriosus is demonstrated, or when the estimated pulmonary pressure, in terms of the tricuspid regurgitation jet, is greater than two-thirds of the systemic arterial pressure.
7. Grade 3 or 4 intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH).
8. Urine output \<1 ml/kg of body weight/h during a 24 h collection period or urine output \<0.5 ml/kg of body weight/h in case it is measured at 24 hours of life of newborn.
9. Serum creatinine concentration \> 1.5 mg/dl (132 μmol/l).
10. Platelet count \< 50,000/mm3.
11. Major bleeding, as revealed by hematuria, or blood in the endotracheal aspirate, gastric aspirate, or stools, or consistent oozing of blood from puncture sites.
12. Severe liver failure, defined as elevated liver enzymes (ALT/Glutamate-Pyruvate Transaminase and Aspartate aminotransferase/GOT) \> 2 times the upper boundary of the normal range. For this kind of population the following normal ranges will be considered \[Rosenthal, 1997\]:

    * ALT/Glutamate-pyruvate transaminase: 6-50 U/L
    * Aspartate aminotransferase/GOT: 35-140 U/L
13. Medical need of administering other Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drug (NSAID) different from ibuprofen.
14. Participation to another trial involving any investigational drug.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* preterm infants born \< 32 weeks gestational age

Exclusion Criteria:

* congenital malformation
* lethal disease
* chromosomal abnormality
* persistent pulmonary hypertension of a newborn
