Filter by:Worldwide emergence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) had become a major problem in ICU, with at least 10% of incidence at the admission in Europe. A systematic rectal swab is used in 70% of French ICU to detect intestinal ESBL-E carriage The relationship between intestinal carriage and ICU-acquired infection is not perfectly known. The investigators conducted a five years study monocentric retrospective observational cohort in patients with presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in systematic rectal swabs to investigate which type of infections and which bacteria are involved. The investigators also collect data about antibiotherapy used to treat these infections.
There is a variety of in vitro, in vivo (animal model), and human case series data which suggests that the addition of ertapenem to cefazolin could improve outcomes in methicillin-susceptible S. aureus bacteremia. No randomized controlled trial has been performed. This study is an approved sub-study of The Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial (NCT05137119)
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center, interventional, active-controlled Phase 4 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI versus BAT in the treatment of infected participants with selected infection types (Hospital Acquired Pneumonia [HAP] (including Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia [VAP]); Complicated Urinary-Tract Infection [cUTI]; Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection [cIAI]; Bloodstream Infection [BSI]) due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens in China.This study will be an estimation study. The statistical inference will be based on point estimate and confidence interval.
The Investigators aim to study the outcomes of serious infections due to vancomycin susceptible infections in gram-positive organisms susceptible to vancomycin in people who use drugs (PWUD). The Investigators hypothesize, that a simplified 2-dose dalbavancin regimen, will improve compliance with antimicrobial therapy and that it may facilitate engagement in the treatment of the underlying substance use disorder, and particularly injection drug use - often the true etiology behind these severe infections.
The increasing number of persons >65 years of age form a special population at risk for nosocomial and other health care-associated infections. The vulnerability of this age group is related to impaired host defenses such as diminished cell-mediated immunity. Lifestyle considerations, e.g., travel and living arrangements, and residence in nursing homes, can further complicate the clinical picture. The magnitude and diversity of health care-associated infections in the aging population are generating new arenas for prevention and control efforts. Common infections leading to hospitalizations in this age group result in respiratory infections and bacteraemia and the impact of these infections on the quality of life and disability in aged populations has not been accurately quantified in a European setting. This study aims to capture and quantify the impact of infectious diseases on quality of life in an aged population.
This study seeks to identify and test host RNA expression profiles as markers for infections in young infants. Preliminary studies have shown high sensitivity and specificity for the discrimination of bacterial from non-bacterial infections in children, but the method has only been investigated in a limited number of young infants. The study aims to include 65 young infants with serious bacterial infections. The samples will be analysed by RNA sequencing. New diagnostic tools may help reduce unnecessary antibiotic treatment, antibiotic resistance, side-effects, hospitalisation and invasive procedures.
Infection with bacteria and other germs in the blood can be deadly. How long germs stay in the blood is important for two reasons. The first is that if they stay in the blood for many days it is a sign that antibiotics may need to be changed. The second is that if they stay in the blood for only a short time it may give doctors confidence to switch to tablets and consider early discharge from hospital. This study is evaluating the diagnostic and prognostic performance of two novel technologies when used to measure the duration of the bloodstream infection.
This is a Phase 2b clinical study, multicenter, randomized, open-label, assessor-blinded, superiority study. The study will compare dalbavancin to standard of care antibiotic therapy for the completion of therapy in patients with complicated bacteremia or right-sided native valve Infective Endocarditis (IE) caused by S. aureus who have cleared their baseline bacteremia. Approximately 200 subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive either dalbavancin or a standard of care antibiotic regimen that is based upon the identification and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of the baseline organism. Subjects randomized to the dalbavancin treatment group will receive 2 doses of dalbavancin intravenously (IV) 1 week apart (1500 mg on Day 1 and Day 8 after randomization, with renal dose adjustment if appropriate). Subjects randomized to the standard of care antibiotic therapy treatment group will receive an antibiotic regimen considered to be standard of care based on the methicillin susceptibility pattern of the pathogen isolated at baseline for a duration of 4 to 6 weeks and up to 8 weeks for patients with vertebral osteomyelitis/discitis. The primary objective is to compare the Desirability of Outcome Ranking (DOOR) at Day 70 of dalbavancin to that of standard of care antibiotic therapy used to consolidate therapy for the treatment of subjects with complicated S. aureus bacteremia in the intent-to-treat population (ITT).
This is an open-label study, where participants will be given ceftolozane-tazobactam as the primary treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Open-label means both the investigator and the participant will known what drug will be given. Participants will be followed for approximately 60 days. Ceftolozane-tazobactam is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of serious bacterial infection and the investigator hypothesizes that ceftolozane/tazobactam may be effective as the primary antibiotic treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections.
