Filter by:This research aims to evaluate the potential benefit of an oral nutritional supplement based on Anthocran phytosome compared to placebo on the prevention of urinary infections, including microbiota analyzes, in postmenopausal women (> 70 years) with diabetes. For each subject enrolled, all parameters relating to urinary infections will be assessed at the beginning (baseline), every 2 months from the start of treatment and at the end of treatment (6 months), with urine analysis and quality of life questionnaires.
3rd generation cephalosporins (C3G) are the antibiotics recommended in probabilistic in most enteric infections in France including pyelonephritis and bacteraemia. However, the prevalence of resistance of Enterobacteriaceae including E. coli to C3G is continuously increasing for several years. In 2012, in France, the proportion of E. resistant or intermediate coli categorized to C3G is 10 to 25% (EARSS data). Antibiotics not adapted early in severe sepsis is responsible for worse prognosis for patients in terms of morbidity and mortality and unnecessary prolongation of the DMS. At St. Joseph's Hospital on enterobacteria levels of resistance to C3G is 15.4%. To avoid overuse of carbapenems for probabilistic antibiotic and to quickly prescribe antibiotics adapted to the resistance of the bacteria, it is interesting to use a rapid test for detection of resistance to C3G. The Lacta ™ test could be used in this indication. This is a rapid test diagnostic orientation detecting hydrolysis of a substrate (chromogenic cephalosporin) by the enzymatic action of ESBL, cAMP-type cephalosporinases and carbapenemases. This test was initially marketed for rapid detection of resistance to C3G enterobacteria from isolated bacterial colonies in culture.
The objective this trial is to compare immediate and 12 hours postoperative removal of urinary catheter after elective cesarean section; and whether early removal is associated with lower risk of urinary infection compared with delayed catheter removal.
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a frequently suspected cause of fever in young children, justifying urine cultures. Sampling procedures are decisive for the reliability of UTI diagnosis. Even though official guidelines recommend clean catch method, catheterization or suprapubic aspiration, urine bag collection remains widely used. In our experience, the rate of contaminated bag-obtained cultures reaches 30.2 %. In a recent study, the investigators have noticed that the rate of contaminated urine cultures was lower when children were kept in an upright position at the time of urine collection. The upright position could explain this decrease, perineum being less in contact with urine. These results are borderline significant, the investigators would like to confirm them with a specific study.
Urinary infection is one of the most common bacterial infections in pediatrics and requires urine collections to be diagnosed. In France, among children under 3, urine samples are collected thanks to collecting bags. Work teams have set as their main goal to compare the different levels of acute pain involved for children under 3 during the removing of the collecting bag, depending on the use, or not, of the Oiled-limestone liniment (randomized into 2 parallel groups), with, as a main endpoint, the difference between the results assigned to the acute pain by a pain evaluation scale (FLACC: Face-Legs-Activity-Cry-Consolability).
