Filter by:The purpose of this study is to see whether chlorhexidine is superior to povidine-iodine vaginal antisepsis at reducing bacteria colony counts in pregnant women by comparing three groups: vaginal washing with chlorhexidine-alcohol, vaginal washing with povidine-iodine, and vaginal washing with saline alone.
The study will assess the utility of 4% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) daily bathing to reduce hospital acquired infections in patients admitted to intensive care units. One group will be daily bathed with 4% CHG and the other group with standard soap.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-armed, parallel-group study in healthy children aged 2-6 years. The study will investigate the effect of daily intake of a probiotic on Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URTI) during a 16-week intervention.
Subjects who are planned to undergo an abdominal (colon) surgery and who will meet the study entry criteria will be randomly divided into 2 groups: for half D-PLEX will be administered concomitantly with the standard of care (SOC). The other half will receive the Standard of Care treatment. Following the surgery subjects will be followed up for additional 5 visits, at least half are in line with the routine practice of surgery Follow-Ups. Visits will include patient safety and wound assessments.
This study concerns patients having had an infection on their prosthesis (hip, knee,..) and for whom a 2-step exchange of prosthesis has been done. A 2-step exchange consists in explantation of the prosthesis and implementation of a spacer at the first stage, and reimplantation of a new prosthesis in a second stage. Patients with late prosthetic joint infection are at risk for superinfection at the time of reimplantation. The aim is to determine the microbiological epidemiology in patients experiencing failure following reimplantation to establish, based on the drug susceptibilities, which cement could be the most active.
The aim of this study is to describe the bone or joint infection due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa in patients having implant.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the gut microbiota and clinical outcomes of oral FMT during antibiotic treatment, immediately following antibiotic treatment, and placebo. The second objective is to assess the safety and feasibility of daily oral Fecal Microbiome Transplant (FMT) as a treatment option.
This is a randomized, unblinded, single-centre study. After eventual surgical debridement (not amputation), patients will be randomized to receive 1 of 2 targeted antibiotic regimens, in the ratio 1:1. For diabetic toe osteomyelitis, the patients will be randomized between a 3 and a 6 week's arm, for soft tissue infections between 10 and 20 days. The final assessments used in the primary efficacy analysis will be obtained at the test-of-cure (TOC) visit approximately 60 days after treatment is stopped.
This study concerns patients having had an infection on their prosthesis (hip, knee,..) and for whom a 2-step exchange of prosthesis has been done. A 2-step exchange consists in explantation of the prosthesis and implementation of a spacer at the first stage, and reimplantation of a new prosthesis in a second stage. Patients with late prosthetic joint infection are at risk for superinfection at the time of reimplantation. The aim of this study is to determine the global cost of management of prosthetic joint infection.
The investigators tested the working hypothesis if 4 weeks of systemic antibiotic treatment in implant-related orthopaedic infections is non-inferior to 6 weeks after complete removal of the infected implant. Randomization 1:1. The study is completed. It halted prematurely and will not resume; participants are no longer being examined or receiving intervention.
