A Cohort Study on Anti-microbial Stewardship in PICU

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Appropriate antimicrobial therapy is essential to ensuring positive patient outcomes. Inappropriate or suboptimal utilization of antibiotics can lead to increased length of stay, multidrug-resistant infections, and mortality. Critically ill intensive care patients are at risk of antibiotic failure and secondary infections associated with incorrect antibiotic use. Initiating effective therapy for infections based upon patients' risk factors, collection of appropriate cultures, daily evaluation of clinical status, and laboratory data, including antibiotic time outs, and shortened duration of therapy are ways to improve patients outcomes. Antimicrobial stewardship teams can assist ICU providers in managing and implementing these tactics. ICUs would benefit from employing empiric guidelines for antibiotic use, collecting appropriate specimens and implementing molecular diagnostics, optimizing the dosing of antibiotics, and reducing the duration of total therapy.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
