Filter by:Purposes of this study will be as follows: 1. To design a prospective, randomized, and open-labeled study to investigate the effect and the side effect of MPD in combination with conventional antibiotics to affect clinical course, outcome, and medical expenses. 2. To compare level of the urinary and serum cytokines before and after received MPD for the following sub-aim: I. To determine the population who is benefit from MPD to reduce the severity of clinical course and subsequent renal scarring. II. To understand the mechanism by which the MPD could shorten the clinical course and reduce the renal scarring.
Urinary tract infection is most common serious bacterial infection in children who admit into the emergency department (ED). However the collection of urine from young children is time consuming process. So many children and their family guardian waste time until medical disposition established. In 2013, Maria Luisa Herreros Fernandez etc have suggested a new urine collection technique for newborn, that bladder and lumbar stimulation technique is fast and safe. The aim of this study is to determine clinical efficacy of bladder and lumbar stimulation technique (BLST) for pediatric patient in ED.
The investigators hypothesize that antibiotic therapy for asymptomatic bacteriuria in renal transplant patients does not have impact on the development of symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) or progression of renal impairment in patients during the first year after transplantation.
The population of children presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) for treatment increases day by day, creating a further burden on the limited nursing staff and where many children and their parents are forced to wait many hours until their medical investigation ends. Part of the many hours waited are for various tests the patient has to undergo, where the urine test is one of the main ones. Urinary tract infections in children are a common cause of death due to acute and chronic complications alike. Our study aims to test a urine collection method to see whether it reduces parents' and/or nursing staff's involvement and thereby reducing the urine sample's percentage of contamination.
Catheter associated urinary tract infection is one of the most common types of catheter acquired infections and adds greatly to patient morbidity, mortality and medical cost. Urinary catheters may readily acquire biofilms when inserted. The longer the catheter remains in place, the greater the tendency of these organisms to develop biofilms and result in urinary tract infections, which are difficult to treathe UroShield System is intended to prevent bacterial biofilm formation by means of the Active NanoShield technology it has developed. A number of scientific concepts and principles shown in prior studies have shown some promising results in the treatment of biofilm based sequele using ultrasound energy. The NanoShield technological basis of the UroShield System has taken these concepts to a level where acoustical waves in the ultrasound range can be created by low cost disposable actuators which actually create a physical coating on all of the surfaces of the catheter thereby interfering with the attachment of bacteria which is the initial step in biofilm formation.
