Short (5 Days) Versus Long (14 Days) Duration of Antimicrobial Therapy for Acute Bacterial Sinusitis in Children

Sinusitis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Short (5 Days) Versus Long (14 Days) Duration of Antimicrobial Therapy for Acute Bacterial Sinusitis in Children

Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators objective is to compare short course (5 days) to long course (14 days)antibiotics for the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis in children. The investigators hypothesize that short course therapy will lead to more frequent relapses of sinusitis and will not reduce resistant organisms.

Clinical Trial Description

This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind study comparing short course (5 days) to long course (14 days) antimicrobial therapy for children between 1 and 10 years of age with acute bacterial sinusitis. The major outcome measure is the proportion of children with a clinical relapse on day 10 in the short course therapy group compared to day 20 in the long course therapy group. In addition, the proportion of respiratory flora that are resistant to antibiotics on day 30 will be compared to baseline in each group. ;
