Filter by:The microbiome of 80 orthopedic-device related infection (ODRI) patients treated with antibiotics and 10 healthy controls will be investigated. Samples (blood, stool, saliva, skin-swab) are collected 4x within 6 months. Composition and diversity of the microbiome will be assessed by 16sRNA sequencing, skins swabs are screened for rifampicin-resistant staphylococci onto Mannitol-salt-agar plates supplemented with rifampicin, inflammation markers and antibodies in blood and saliva are monitored to track changes in the immune response. For further analysis patients are assigned to one of two groups: 1) antibiotic therapy including rifampicin and 2) non-rifampicin antibiotic therapy.
In this pilot study, we will investigate whether - with the current dosing regimens, used in the Ghent University Hospital - pharmacodynamic targets regarding beta-lactam antibiotics (more specific Amoxicilline-Clavulanate, Piperacillin-Tazobactam and Temocillin) are attained in frail patients admitted to the geriatric department.
This is a randomized controlled clinical study evaluating the use of next-generation sequencing (NGS) to improve antibiotic prescribing before ureteroscopy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy.
QPX7728 is an ultra-broad-spectrum beta-lactamase inhibitor, with activity against numerous beta-lactamases, including class A extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs), class C cephalosporinases, and extended spectrum class D oxacillinases (OXA) that can hydrolyze cephalosporins and can be found in Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa). QPX7728 is also a potent inhibitor of carbapenemases from all molecular classes, such as class A Klebsiella pheumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), class B New-Dehli Metalo-beta-lactamase (NDM) and Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase (VIM), and class D OXA-48 that are found in carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae, and also class D carbapenemases such as OXA-23 that are found in carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.
The main purpose of this monocentric, non-interventional, prospective study carried out in acute geriatrics (UGA) and post-rehabilitation care, is to determine if eosinopenia is associated with bacterial infections.
Ceftazidime-avibactam is used for treatment of invasive Gram-negative bacterial infections among critically ill patients, including those on continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration . However, dosing of ceftazidime-avibactam for these patients remains undefined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime and avibactam among critically-ill patients, including those receiving CVVHD. This is a registration of Dr. Shields' exempt project under IRB approved research study STUDY19040363
The primary objectives of this study are: - To assess the safety and tolerability of cefiderocol after single-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 18 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of cefiderocol after single-dose administration of cefiderocol in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 18 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the safety and tolerability of cefiderocol after multiple-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 12 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the PK of cefiderocol after multiple-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 12 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections
This study consists in a double-blinded randomized controlled trial which objective is to assess the effect of the implant-abutment connection type -external hexagon, internal hexagon and conical connection- in the periimplant marginal bone loss in vertical side and the bacterial leakage 12 months after prosthesis placement.
Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli [Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), and Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPsA) ] and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is prevalent around the world, and the isolation rate and resistance rate has increasing in China. The limited treatment and high mortality rate of these pathogens infections has resulted in difficulty in clinical anti-infection treatment, so it is urgent to illustrate the transmission mechanism, resistance mechanism and horizontal transfer mechanism of resistance genes in intensive care unit (ICU). Furthermore, this study was aimed to investigate the epidemiology and risk factors, outcomes and the rationality of the current therapy for these pathogens infections in China.
Vancomycin is a widely used antibiotic in the treatment of complicated gram positive infections. Approaches to vancomycin therapeutic drug monitioring (TDM) vary. This clinical trial aimed to compare the pharmacoeconomic outcomes between various vancomyicn TDM approaches. Research questions: Which vancomycin therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) approach is associated with superior economic outcomes? -Objectives: In this proposed multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT), we aim to compare the pharmacoeconomic outcomes of various vancomycin TDM approaches.
