NCT ID: NCT03468621 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Wound Infection

Relation of Skin Closure Method to Groin Wound Infections After Proximal Femoral Artery Exposure.

Start date: March 29, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to asses whether the rate of surgical wound infections in vascular surgery procedures involving exposure of the proximal femoral artery can be reduced using a different skin closure technique.

NCT ID: NCT03459261 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Site Infection

Acute Posttraumatic Osteomyelitis in Patients With High-energy Tibial Fractures and Biomarkers

POMTIBIAL
Start date: January 1, 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The present trial was aimed to identify which biomarkers could be associated in perioperative period after surgical treatment of tibial fracture to the development of POM.

NCT ID: NCT03453684 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Site Infection

Pharmacokinetics of Preoperative Vancomycin

Start date: December 1, 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

A study of plasma and tissue vancomycin pharmacokinetics in pediatric surgical patients.

NCT ID: NCT03442218 Completed - Endometritis Clinical Trials

Use of Antiseptic Solution for Vaginal Wash Before Cesarean Section

Start date: June 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the rate of infections after cesarean sections in patients with premature rupture of membranes after vaginal wash either with an antiseptic solution (clorhexidine solution) vs. saline solution (placebo).

NCT ID: NCT03408782 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Site Infection

Drains and Surgical Site Infections

Start date: February 22, 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT03408457 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Wound Infection

Influence of Perioperative Fluid Balance on Serum Concentrations of Antibiotics and Surgical Site Infections

Start date: March 14, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT03393819 Completed - Clinical trials for Arthroplasty, Hip Replacement

Efficacy of Surgical Skin Preparation Solutions in Hip Arthroplasty Surgery

Start date: October 29, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the efficacy of two of the most commonly used surgical skin-preparation solutions: Chloraprep (chlorhexidine-alcohol) and Duraprep (iodine-alcohol) at eliminating bacteria from the hip site by evaluating the residual bacteria present following surgical skin-preparation.

NCT ID: NCT03385304 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Site Infection

Pre-operative Aqueous Antiseptic Skin Solutions in Open Fractures

Aqueous-PREP
Start date: April 8, 2018
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The prevention of infection is the single most important goal influencing peri-operative care of patients with open fractures. Standard practice in the management of open fractures includes sterile technique and pre-operative skin preparation with an antiseptic solution. The available solutions kill bacteria and decrease the quantity of native skin flora, thereby decreasing surgical site infection (SSI). While there is extensive guidance on specific procedures for prophylactic antibiotic use and standards for sterile technique, the evidence regarding the choice of antiseptic skin preparation solution is very limited for open fracture surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03365219 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Wound Infection

Alexis O-Ring Wound Retractor for the Prevention of Post-cesarean Surgical Site Infections

Alexis
Start date: October 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Post cesarean section surgical site infection (SSI) is a common complication that can affect patient recovery and overall outcome. Several approaches have been studied to improve SSI rates such as timing of antibiotic administration and skin preparation. Alexis retractors have been suggested as a reasonable option to decrease SSI. However, to date there is only one randomized controlled study assessing its efficacy. The aim of this study is to whether Alexis wound retractors are beneficial in preventing cesarean section SSI.

NCT ID: NCT03353532 Completed - Clinical trials for Staphylococcus Aureus

Staphylococcus Aureus Surgical Site Infection Multinational Epidemiology in Europe

SALT
Start date: August 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a retrospective multinational, multicenter cohort study with a nested case-control. The study includes all surgical procedures performed at a participating site to prevent bias. Data will be assessed in two populations. Cohort population: Export of electronic file data on demographics, surgical procedure ICPM code, duration of procedure, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, body mass index, comorbidity ICD codes, and wound class of all patients undergoing surgery. Nested case-control population: For patients establishing S. aureus SSI and 1:1 matched controls from the same center further data will be captured: Length of hospitalization, length of ICU stay and reason as well as attribution to SSI, survival at 30 and at 90 days, antibiotic treatments including duration, functional status at admission and at final discharge; necessity for surgical revision, and death attributed to SSI. If readmission is necessary, reason and attribution to SSI, length of hospitalization and length of ICU stay as well as all antibiotic treatments and their duration will be recorded. The cases causative pathogens including resistance patterns and type of SSI according to CDC criteria will be captured. Matching criteria comprise the following: - Type of procedure - Age - ASA score - BMI - Duration of procedure (as percentile for this procedure) - Diabetes - Sex
