Filter by:To assess the safety and the preliminary efficacy data on the three doses of the new Cosmo Technologies oral rifamycin SV colon-release 200 mg tablets manufactured according to MMX technology (CB-01-11) in the treatment of infectious diarrhoea.
This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IV ETX2514SUL in patients with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs) who are otherwise relatively healthy.
A multicenter double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group comparative Phase II / III clinical study to assess safety, tolerability, efficacy and optimal dose ranging of XC8 vs. placebo in patients with uncomplicated influenza or other ARVI during a 5-day treatment. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate the difference in time before the onset of a sustained improvement in clinical symptoms according to the Severity Rating Scale for ARVI, and to determine the optimal dose of XC8 in the treatment of influenza and other ARVI.
Background: Women undergoing cesarean delivery have 5 to 20 fold greater risk for infection and infectious morbidity compared with those undergoing vaginal birth. Endometritis, febrile morbidity, and wound infection are the most frequent complications of post cesarean infections. Endometritis accounts for 6-27% followed by clinically significant fever, which was reported about 5-24%,while the incidence of wound infection is about 2-9%.Previous studies evaluated whether vaginal cleansing can reduce the incidence of postoperative infectious morbidity. In most of the studies, povidone iodine was used as intervention. Objectives: The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that preoperative vaginal cleansing with chlorhexidine would be superior to iodine for the prevention of maternal infectious morbidities including endometritis, fever and wound complications. Methods: This prospective randomized single blinded controlled trial will be conducted at Makassed General Hospital between February 2018 and January 2019. Total of 300 patients, 150 in each group, will be enrolled. Group 1 patients will receive chlorhexidine vaginal cleansing while group 2 patients will receive iodine prior to C-section. Adverse post infectious morbidities such as endometritis, febrile illness and wound infections will be observed within 30 days of C-section.
Data extraction from bacteriological laboratory of Martinique University hospital to determine the frequency and the distribution of nosocomial infections due to Achromobacter xylosoxidans (ACHX), an emerging multi-resistant environmental bacteria. The specific tropical environment and climatic conditions in Martinique may favor ACHX development and the investigators suppose that this new opportunistic pathogen can represent a danger for hospitalized patients. The aim of our study is to describe the most affected population and try to identify the main environmental sources of contamination.
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is acknowledged as a highly effective treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Usually single fecal infusion achieves satisfactory cure rates of recurrent CDI). However, several retrospective studies show that severe clinical picture of recurrent CDI is a risk factor for the failure of single-infusion FMT, suggesting that multiple fecal infusions are required to cure this condition. This is an open-label randomized clinical trial aiming to assess if multiple-infusion FMT is more effective than single-infusion FMT in curing severe CDI
The trial is an open-label, non-controlled, multicenter, pilot clinical trial of inhaled molgramostim (recombinant human Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor; rhGM-CSF) in subjects with persistent pulmonary Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) infection. Subject will be treated for 24-weeks with inhaled molgramostim and will be followed up for 12-weeks after end of treatment. The primary aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy of inhaled molgramostim on NTM sputum culture conversion to negative.
This is a prospective surveillance study to estimate excess deaths due to and risk factors associated with antibiotic-resistant infection among patients with hospital-acquired infection (HAI) in a resource-limited setting. We will focus on six pathogenic bacteria that are of clinically important in the hospital.
This prospective observational study examines the associations of presence, duration, type, number and location of surgical drains with the risk of surgical site infections in a contemporary and multicentric cohort of general, orthopedic trauma and vascular surgery procedures.
This study evaluates antibiotic serum concentrations in correlation with perioperative fluid balance. Patients will be recruited in rectum and esophageal surgery (representative for low blood loss and restrictive fluid management) and in liver surgery (representative for high blood loss and liberal fluid management). The hypothesis is that high blood loss and liberal fluid management dilute antibiotic serum concentrations thereby potentially increasing surgical site infections.
