NCT ID: NCT04573894 Completed - Bacteremia Clinical Trials

Diagnostic Performance of Plasma Procalcitonin for the Detection of Blood Cultures Contaminations

Start date: June 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In blood cultures, species considered as potentially contaminating (coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS), Bacillus spp., Corynebacterium spp., Cutibacterium acnes, Micrococcus spp., viridans group streptococci, and Clostridium perfringens) can, however, be responsable for true bacteremia. Blood levels of the prohormone procalcitonin (PCT) markedly increase in the early stages of bacterial infections. The aim of our study is to determine the role of plasma PCT as a biomarker differentiating blood culture contaminations from true bacteremia.

NCT ID: NCT02299752 Recruiting - Catheterization Clinical Trials

Unnoticed Gloves Perforation

Start date: November 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study was to investigate the incidence of glove perforation in cannulation of blood vessels (CBV) during resuscitation and compare perforation rates between single and double-gloves.
