Filter by:This is an observation study comparing prospective use of Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam (IMI/REL) to retrospective data using Meropenem/Vabobactam (MVB)and Ceftazidime/Avibactam CZA) in treatment of Klebsiella Producing Carbapenemase Enterobacteriaceae infections at a tertiary care hospital. The objectives of the study are to demonstrate successful treatment of KPC containing Enterobacteriaceae infections with IMI/REL including in bacteremia, and to analyze treatment outcomes in use of IMI/REL for KPC-producing infections compared to historical clinical outcome data with CZA and MVB use at the same institution.
PredictEndTB signature is a non-inferiority, prospective, parallel-group open-label randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of individualised antituberculous treatment durations that utilize the transcriptomic signature-based model compared to the standardised twenty months treatment in a cohort of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients.
Acute upper respiratory tract infection(AURI) is common in children, and viral infection is the main cause. However, several children with viral infection are easy to suffer from secondary bacterial infection, and the mechanism is unclear.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of antibiotic combinations containing Colistin in the treatment of children with multidrug-resistant gram negative infections admitted in the pediatric surgery intensive care unit. The main outcome measure is clinical and microbiological responses to therapy. The secondary outcome is the occurrence of adverse events during Colistin combination treatment.
No biological marker is highly specific of infection and currently available, especially for bacterial infection. The ideal marker would be easy to perform, rapidly, inexpensive, and correlated with the severity and prognosis of the infection. decreased in eosinophil count (EC) is unspecific of a particular clinical picture and may support a systemic inflammation, whereas the deeper the eosinopenia is, the darker is the prognosis in ICU. The duration of eosinopenia is not clearly documented, but it has been recently shown that EC tends to normalization, rapidly after appropriate and effective antimicrobial therapy in case of bacterial infection among adults patients hospitalized in a medicine ward. In the light of this findings, Terradas et al. described that EC returned back to normal between the day 2 or day 3 in survivors, indicating a potential interest as a predictive marker of the evolution among hospitalized patients. To the best of our knowledge, no work has studied eosinopenia as a prognostic marker of mortality during bacterial infections in the elderly patients in a hospital setting. Our study aims to evaluate the prognosis value of the EC in a geriatric unit of tertiary care hospital.
In this study, patients undergoing ear surgery (cochlear implantation, stapedotomy, tympanoplasty) will be randomized to one of two antibiotic treatment groups. One group will receive a single treatment with an antibiotic at induction The other group will receive the single intravenous treatment, plus a one week course or oral antibiotic
1. A retrospective analysis was performed to determine the prevalence of multidrug- resistant organisms infection in ICU from October 2017 to October 2019. 2. Non-MDRO patients were selected by random sampling in a ratio of 1:1 to the final MDRO group during the same period , and select the risk factors of infection with multi-drug resistant bacteria by comparing the two groups. 3. Randomly select 30% of the sample size as the validation set, and the remaining 70% for the training set to establish a model. Using multi-factor Logistic regression, decision tree classification, artificial neural network, support vector machine, Bayesian network Method to establish risk assessment system for multidrug-resistant organisms infection respectively.Using validation set data to calculate the area under the ROC curve (AUC) and sensitivity, specificity of models and comparing the prediction accuracy of several models. Finally, choose a more suitable risk assessment system for multidrug-resistant organisms infection. 4. Predict the patient's infection risk level according to the best risk assessment system and develop a low-to-high intervention plan.
To assess the efficacy of temocillin compared to carbapenems for the management of ESBL-E UTI.
Respiratory infections such as colds, flu and pneumonia affect millions of people around the world every year. Most cases are mild, but some people become very unwell. Influenza ('flu') is one of the most common causes of lung infection. Seasonal flu affects between 10% and 46% of the population each year and causes around 12 deaths in every 100,000 people infected. In addition, both influenza and coronaviruses have caused pandemics in recent years, leading to severe disease in many people. Although flu vaccines are available, these need to change every year to overcome rapid changes in the virus and are not completely protective. This study aims to find and develop predictive tests to better understand how and when flu-like illness progresses to more severe disease. This may help to decide which people need to be admitted to hospital, and how their treatment needs to be increased or decreased during infection. The aim is to recruit 100 patients admitted to hospital due to a respiratory infection. It is voluntary to take part and participants can choose to withdraw at any time. The study will involve some blood and nose samples. This will be done on Day 0, Day 2 and Discharge from hospital, and an out-patient follow-up visit on Day 28. The data will be used to develop novel diagnostic tools to assist in rational treatment decisions that will benefit both individual patients and resource allocation. It will also establish research preparedness for upcoming pandemics.
This observational, prospective, multicenter study, conducted in nine French Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Units (ICUs), will assess the antibiotic therapy for a child hospitalized in ICU and receiving systemic antibiotics for an episode of suspected or proven community-acquired or nosocomial bacterial infection. The study will describe the mean duration of antibiotic therapy, as well as compliance with the recommendations concerning the duration of antibiotic therapy, the choice of antibiotics, the daily dosage and the number of doses per 24 hours according to the type of bacterial infection. Patients will be monitored until the end of their hospitalization.
