Filter by:This is a randomized study to compare the safety and efficacy of a single dose of up to 2 grams of cefazolin administered using a new drug delivery method called Ultrasonic Drug Delivery (UDD), combined with standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy, oral or IV, compared to standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy alone, in treating chronic wounds with skin and soft tissue infection, containing gram-positive pathogens, in lower extremities.
This is a prospective randomized controlled study to the difference between using normal saline or betadine irrigation of wound prior to skin closure in reducing the incidence of wound infection after Cesarean section.
Sepsis is a leading cause of hospitalization in pediatric intensive care units, In the last decade, a series of initiatives were implemented that aim not only to improve the understanding of sepsis and the clarity of concepts related to this condition but also to reduce morbidity and mortality due to sepsis through earlier diagnosis and initiation of antibiotic therapy as well as through the provision of specific guidelines for the treatment of pediatric sepsis. Despite these measures and the lower mortality from sepsis in children compared to adult patients, the impact of sepsis in the pediatric population remains high.
The study will identify the epidemiological and treatment profiles of acute peritonitis in Italy
The aim of this study is to compare the incidence of catheter associated culture-based urinary tract infection (UTI) after elective CD with or without preoperative placement of a urinary catheter.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy of a new 14-day sequential therapy for the rescue treatment of refractory Helicobacter pylori infection, and whether it is safe while maintaining an ideal eradication rates. The researchers also want to testify whether a double-dose rabeprazole has equal efficacy to double-dose esomeprazole to provide sufficient acid inhibition.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immune mechanism of Sanjin tablets for the treatment of acute simple lower urinary tract infection and its influence on recurrence rate.
* Report the prevalence of fungal infections among patients with hematological malignancies in South Egypt Cancer Institute. * Detect the most endemic fungal pathogen isolated from patients with hematological malignancies in South Egypt Cancer Institute. *Antifungal susceptibility testing which guide the optimal approach to treat fungal infections. * detection of resistant gene expression by real time PCR. * Fungal genome sequencing analysis to determine the genetic back ground upon which mutation and resistance occur.
Consensual antibiotic protocols have been developed and validated locally by infectious disease specialists, internists and emergency physicians, in order to encourage their compliance. A preliminary study was conducted from June 2015 to February 2016, including 622 patients admitted to the emergency department for infectious syndrome such as / - Pneumoniae - Urinary tract infection - Cellulitis - Meningitis - Malaria - Febrile neutropenia - Febrile acute diarrhea - Fever back to the tropics - Angina - sexually transmitted infection This prospective study will observe and analyze the adherence of prescribers to these protocols. With description of patients who benefited or not the antibiotic protocol, according to a syndromic approach and analysis of the causes of non-adherence to the protocols. In order to limit the length of stay and reduce the cost of hospitalization..
This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, non-inferiority study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of FEP-TAZ vs. meropenem in the treatment of hospitalized adults with cUTI or AP.
