Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the microbiological cure rate of doripenem in the treatment of patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis. The study will also characterize the safety and tolerability of treatment with doripenem in patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two antibiotics in the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection or acute pyelonephritis (kidney infection). A 5-day course of 750 milligrams of levofloxacin given intravenously and/or by mouth once daily will be compared to a 10-day course of 400 milligrams of ciprofloxacin given intravenously and/or 500 milligrams of ciprofloxacin given by mouth twice daily.
To evaluate the changes in the microcirculation of the liver, kidney and spleen during acute infection in patients with malaria (cohorts 1 and 3) and other infectious diseases such as acute pyelonephritis at day 0 (within 8 hours of the treatment start), day 2 to 4 and day 28-32, using functional US with continuous infusion of a contrast agent (SonoVue, Bracco, Italy). Study hypothesis: malaria patients should exhibit a different pattern of enhancement, particularly when quantitative measurements of the SU signals is performed with destruction reperfusion kinetics.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the equivalence of the therapeutic efficacy of cefixime by mouth (PO) 10 days (d) and ceftriaxone intravenous route(IV) 4d followed by cefixime PO 6d on renal scars 6 months after a first acute pyelonephritis episode. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with cefixime PO will allow no more renal scars than intravenous route (IV) treatment of pyelonephritis in infants and children less than 3 years old, 6 months after the first episode. If it is true, treatment will no longer need hospitalisation and the advantages for children, families and the health system will be very important.
