Filter by:The safety and efficacy of a urinary catheter designed to prevent catheter associated urinary infections is studied.
The purpose of this study is to examine the immune response to traumatic injury and subsequent infections in critically ill adults. Traumatic injuries lead to severe dysregulation of the immune system, and predispose to severe infections. Diagnosing these infections in a timely manner is paramount in reducing morbidity and mortality, but diagnosis is made difficult by the inflammatory response to trauma. The main purpose of the study is to prospectively test the diagnostic power of the expression of an 11-gene set which the investigators recently published (Sweeney et al., Sci Transl Med, 2015). Since the timing of an acquired infection cannot be determined a priori, this study is designed to be a longitudinal examination of a cohort of traumatically injured adults. The investigators will draw blood at regular intervals, as well as at day of diagnosis of infection for any patient that are diagnosed with an infection. The investigators will then assay the blood for gene expression levels post hoc, and correlate the molecular profiles with clinical information to establish a prospective estimate of diagnostic power.
This is a pilot study of intervention in a group of patients with tropical spastic paraparesis/ myelopathy to evaluate virologic and clinical response of raltegravir plus zidovudine in this group of patients.
Determine the PK and safety and tolerability of aztreonam-avibactam (ATM-AVI) in the treatment of hospitalized adults with cIAI
The investigators believe that there is an association between H. pylori infection and nutritional status and between H. pylori infection and cognitive development. The current study will examine this association in Israeli children, aged 6-12 years.
Phase IV trial,Single-arm, multi-centre clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of Fuganlin Oral Liquid in children with acute upper respiratory infection
This is a prospective observational study to determine the role of colonization and identify the timing of development of drug resistance in multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacilli (MDR-GNB) causing infection among critically ill burn patients.
The purpose of this study is determine safety and effectiveness of Neutrolin, a catheter lock solution, for prevention of central venous catheter associated bloodstream infection in hemodialysis patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks of treatment with the ABT-493/ABT-530 combination regimen in adults with chronic HCV genotype 1 - 6 infection and chronic severe renal impairment.
Hypothesis: A short course (3-5 days) of antibiotic therapy (experimental arm) is as safe and effective as a long course of antibiotic therapy for the treatment of catheter-associated urinary tract infections.
