Minimally invasive upper tract lithotomy is currently a common operation method on treatment of urinary tract stones, but the postoperative complication urinary tract infection or urinary sepsis has turned into a serious threat to the patient's life, when severe, can result in a higher death rate.Although more the more importance were attached to, an effective prevention measures still have not been found. Among Urinary calculi, the higher rates of infection stone resulted in a higher incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection. The conventional postoperative prophylaxis medicine was the use of antimicrobial drugs half an hour before surgery.Foreign studies had shown that continuous preoperative one week use of nitrofurantoin can significantly reduce the incidence of urinary sepsis. So the investigators assume that preoperative extended use time of prophylaxis antibiotic may reduce the incidence of urinary tract infection or urinary sepsis. This study uses a computerized random method. According to preoperative use of different antimicrobial drug or treatment, all patients are randomly divided into five groups, namely levofloxacin 3days group,levofloxacin 7days group, nitrofurantoin 3days group,nitrofurantoin 7days group and cefuroxime group.The levofloxacin group receives levofloxacin 0.5g, qd, po, the nitrofurantoin group was given oral nitrofurantoin 100mg, tid, po.to explore the better antibiotics types, medication timing and duration of treatment to prevent postoperative infection after minimally invasive upper tract lithotomy, so as to reduce the incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection or sepsis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the diagnosis accuracy of modified wet suction technique and 5ml dry suction technique on solid occupying lesions.
To assess the safety and biological efficacy of therapeutically administered most closely HLA-matched third party donor-derived specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) targeting cytomegalovirus (CMV) or Adenovirus (Adv) or Epstein Barr virus (EBV) or fungi including Aspergillus and Candida species for the treatment of viral infection following allogeneic blood or marrow stem cell or solid organ transplantation.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the infiltration of 0.5% Bupivacaine in the surgical wound is effective to diminish the pain and the risk of surgical site infections in patients who go to a open gastrointestinal procedure.
The purpose of the study is to investigate if treatment with fecal microbiota transplantation or rectal bacteriotherapy is superior to standard vancomycin in patients with recurrent Clostridium Difficile infections.
Obesity alters the movement through the body of several antibiotics, including vancomycin. Based on literature to date, total body weight should be used to determine dosages and shorter dosing intervals may be needed. However, hospitals have different approaches to managing vancomycin in this patient population. The most common example is not exceeding a dose of 2,000mg of vancomycin at one time in these patients. However, some institutions including the Charleston Area Medical Center do not have a set maximum one time dose. To date, a study has not been done comparing two different dosing regimens in obese patients to determine if having a maximum dose cap is beneficial. This research study is attempting to add to the limited existing body of literature regarding vancomycin dosing in obese patients. The investigators hypothesize that optimizing the initial or loading vancomycin dose that obese patients receive will decrease the time to target concentrations. For this study, obese adult patients will be randomized to receive either 1) a loading dose of 20 mg/kg with a maximum dose up to 2,000mg OR 2) a loading dose of 20 mg/kg with a maximum dose of up to 4,000mg. The study's primary aim is to determine differences in the time needed to achieve target vancomycin concentrations and the occurrence of adverse events.
Febrile shivering in the pediatric population is assumed to be related to a Severe Bacterial Infection (SBI). Research supporting this assumption is scant. The purpose of this study is to describe the frequency of febrile shivering in the pediatric population arriving at the emergency department and to define its role in predicting a SBI.
The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single intravenous dose of ceftolozane/tazobactam in pediatric participants. Ceftolozane/tazobactam is a novel antibacterial consisting of ceftolozane, a unique antipseudomonal cephalosporin, with tazobactam, a well-established β-lactamase inhibitor. This is the first study investigating the use of ceftolozane/tazobactam in pediatric participants.
500 pregnant patients with HBeAg-positive and HBV-DNA≥ 106copies /ml who will do their pregnant check in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University will be enrolled into the study. There will be five groups to be observed. Four groups are taking tenofovir to prevent intrauterine infection during pregnancy. One group is not taking any anti-HBV virus treatments.The clinical value and effectiveness of tenofovir on blocking HBV intrauterine infection will be evaluated; The HBV-DNA infection status of placenta tissue will be checked by quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) to assess the changes of HBV-DNA of placenta after treating with tenofovir and explore the mechanism of tenofovir blocking HBV intrauterine infection. The safety of Tenofovir will be assessed as well.
