Filter by:The purpose of this study is to obtain additional data on efficacy and safety of Ergoferon in the treatment of viral intestinal infections in inpatient children.
The international multicenter double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical study in parallel groups.The objective of this study is to obtain additional data on the efficacy and safety of Ergoferon in the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) in children aged from 6 months to 6 years old.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability of treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in adults with chronic HCV infection who are on dialysis for ESRD.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of eravacycline compared to ertapenem in treating participants with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI).
Our trial try to eradicate digestive tract colonization of patient harboring Extreme Drug Resistant (XDR) bacteria by performing a fecal transplantation.
Clostridium difficile is the first cause of nosocomial infectious diarrhea, due to its mode of transmission and its resistance in the environment. Nosocomiality is defined by the apparition of an infection 48 hours after the patient's hospitalization. Clostridium difficile contamination occurs oro-fecally and is transmitted directly through the hand or from the contaminated environment (during care or not). By implementing prevention and optimal treatment, nosocomial infections are preventable. A clostridium difficile infection causes an additional cost of patient care for the hospital. This additional cost is principally due to the increase of the length of the stay. It varies according to patient risk factors,and also according to the reason of the hospitalization and can vary from 300 euros (~317$) to more than 25.000 euros (26.460$). By determining the increase in the length of the stay and the additional cost due to a clostridium difficile infection in the GHICL (Groupement des Hôpitaux de l'Institut Catholique de Lille), prevention will be valued and measures against those infections should be easier to set up. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the additional cost of an infection by clostridium difficile.
This study will have 2 parts: Pharmacokinetics (PK) Lead-in Phase and the Treatment Phase. The primary objective of the PK Lead-in Phase is to evaluate the steady state PK and confirm the dose of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in pediatric participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The primary objective of the Treatment Phase is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SOF/VEL for 12 weeks in pediatric participants with chronic HCV.
Inappropriate antibiotic use is a major public health concern. Excessive exposure to antibiotics results in emergence and spread of drug-resistant bacteria, potentially avoidable adverse drug reactions, and increased healthcare utilization and cost. As antibiotic prescribing in emergency departments and urgent care centers remains unchecked, national professional organizations including the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) and the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology (SHEA), and an Executive Order from the President of the United States, recommend expansion of antimicrobial stewardship to these ambulatory care settings. The goal of antimicrobial stewardship is to effectively promote judicious antibiotic use in all healthcare settings, yet stewardship programs have not achieved their potential in terms of either reach or effectiveness. Reach has been limited by implementation mostly in inpatient settings; at the same time, recent critical experiments in behavioral science suggest that the effectiveness of existing stewardship programs could be greatly augmented through inclusion of behavioral nudges, benchmarked audit and feedback, and peer-to-peer comparisons.
The main focus of this observational study is to analyze the possible effects of cranberry dietary supplements on the intestinal microbiota in women with recurrent uncomplicated urinary tract infections. In a secondary analysis the possible influence of the microbiota changes on the recurrence frequency in the follow-up should be analyzed.
RCT to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 16666 & Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 to significantly modify the frequency of clinical or bacteriological cure in women with non complicated acute cystitis who receive probiotics for 12 days compared with the frequency in women who receive placebo.
