Filter by:The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of immune function on prognositic outcome in critical ill patients with Acinetobacter baumannii infection.
Urinary retention is a common problem, particularly in hospitalized patients. When a Foley catheter is removed, a patient must be monitored for urinary retention. The usual method is a passive voiding trial where the catheter is removed, the bladder fills with urine and the patient is monitored for voiding over approximately 6 hours. Another option is an active voiding trial where the bladder is filled with saline before the catheter is removed and the patient is immediately assisted to void. This study seeks to determine the effect of active vs passive voiding trials on time to hospital discharge, rate of urinary tract infections, and rate or urinary retention in the general hospitalized population.
Only 24 cases of Campylobacter bone and joint infection (BJI) have been reported worldwide between 1955 and 2008. Between 2010 and 2012, 7 cases were observed in two University hospitals in France. This increasing number of cases raises several issues. Are they the consequences of better detections and reporting, or are they reflecting any epidemiologic changes? For answering these questions, we performed a 10 year (2002-2012) retrospective multicenter (6 centers) study on BJI (native and implanted joints) due to Campylobacter species.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of omadacycline as compared to linezolid in the treatment of adults with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.
The value of CSF IL-6, IL-8 and Procalcitonin in detecting an early diagnosis of intrathecal infection in neurosurgical patients with an external ventricular drainage is evaluated.
The purpose of this study was to use participant samples to simultaneously evaluate three nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) diagnostic platforms.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in pediatric participants who are undergoing cancer chemotherapy.
MET-2 clinical study is an Open label, single center, multiple dose pilot study of 19 patients. The study is designed to measure the resolution of diarrhea as well as the feasibility of administration and safety of MET-2 for the treatment of recurrent CDI in patients who have experienced at least two prior episodes of CDI and have developed recurrence after having completed standard-of care oral antibiotic therapy to treat CDI.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) are involved in up to 95 % of anal canal neoplastic lesions. Little is known about HPV carriage in anal canal previous to cancer occurrence in the population and pre-neoplastic lesions, and their risk factors. PAPILLAN is a prospective study that aims to study HPV infection (HPV low grade and high grade genotypes) prevalence in anal canal in a population non selected by its HIV status. In that purpose patients are prospectively recruited in a french university hospital gastroenterology unit and anal smears are collected during a colonoscopy with cytobrush.
A three-arm, multi-site clinical evaluation of the ARIES Bordetella Assay for the detection and identification of Bordetella pertussis (B. pertussis) and Bordetella parapertussis (B. parapertussis) nucleic acids in prospectively collected, de-identified, left-over clinical specimens; banked, pre-selected clinical specimens; and contrived specimens.
