Filter by:Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infections (cIAIs) represent an emergent surgical situation which lead to important non trauma-related mortality in several Emergency Surgical Centers worldwide. Their prevalence seemed to be unrelated to age, gender, health status and socioeconomic condition. Early diagnosis, timely septic source control, wide-spectrum antibiotic delivery and resuscitation with fluids and vasoactive agents in critically ill patients are fundamentals for successful cIAIs management. Moreover, septic shock, antibiotic resistant multi-pathogens and comorbidities have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality of cIAIs. Several international health associations announce updated guidelines for cIAIs management. Nevertheless, such guidelines could not be widely implemented, because of specific features of several healthcare systems worldwide. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of cIAIs among the Greek health system and the potential association of time interval of septic source control, preoperative resuscitation and multidrug resistant pathogens with morbidity, mortality, ICU stay and length of stay in patients with cIAIs.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center, interventional, active-controlled Phase 4 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI versus BAT in the treatment of infected participants with selected infection types (Hospital Acquired Pneumonia [HAP] (including Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia [VAP]); Complicated Urinary-Tract Infection [cUTI]; Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection [cIAI]; Bloodstream Infection [BSI]) due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens in China.This study will be an estimation study. The statistical inference will be based on point estimate and confidence interval.
This is a Phase 3, multi-site, non-randomized, open-label study evaluating the safety and efficacy of MK-7625A 1.5 g (ceftolozane 1 g/tazobactam 0.5 g) plus metronidazole 500 mg for the treatment of Complicated Intra-abdominal Infections (cIAI) in Japanese participants. Efficacy will be primarily assessed by clinical response defined as complete resolution or significant improvement in signs and symptoms of the index infection.
This study focuses on the use of contrast enhanced low-dose CT imaging as a modality to differentiate between uncomplicated and complicated acute appendicitis. Differentiation between the two forms of acute appendicitis is important because according to recent studies their treatment differs. Complicated forms are still treated operatively, while uncomplicated forms can be treated conservatively with antibiotics. In the initial phase of the study, several optimized CT protocols will be created with a phantom model. The two best performing models will be selected for the second phase of the study, in which patients presenting with suspected acute appendicitis will be imaged with the two protocols. All patients participating in the study will be treated operatively, primarily with a laparoscopic appendectomy. Thus histological confirmation for the diagnosis can be achieved and compared with the CT images. The goal of this study is to optimize a well-performing low-dose CT imaging protocol to use in the diagnosis of uncomplicated acute appendicitis.
This is a comparative study of the efficacy and safety of tigecycline to imipenem/cilastatin in hospitalized patients with a complicated intra-abdominal infection.
Adjuvant use of fibrin glue in the fistula tract may promote healing in low-output enterocutaneous fistulas. However, there are only few studies that report autologous glue application in a larger patient group or clinical-controlled studies in this setting. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous platelet-rich fibrin glue (PRFG) in the treatment of low-output digestive fistulas and compare them with conservative management without the use of adjuvant application of FG into the fistulous tract.
On the basis of monotherapy for intra-abdominal infection, the investigators are conducting this study to identify the difference of drug efficacy between ampicillin/sulbactam and moxifloxacin.
The aim of the study was to compare the activity (efficacy and safety) of Ertapenem administered according to a short treatment for three days versus a short treatment for three days with AS in patients with an community acquired IAI of mild to moderate severity.
Meropenem is an antibiotic that is commonly used to treat serious infections. Although it is used in premature and young infants, the correct dose is not known. The purpose of this study is to determine the correct dose and the safety of meropenem for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections in these young babies.
To determine the pharmacokinetic profile and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ascending multiple doses of tigecycline in patients aged 8 to 11 years with selected serious infections; complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI), complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI), or community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
