Filter by:The goal of this two-arm parallel cluster-randomized trial of 40 hospitals is to test the effectiveness of the ROAD Home Intervention on days of antibiotic overuse at discharge in patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) or urinary tract infection (UTI). The main question it aims to answer is: Does an antibiotic stewardship approach that is customized to the needs, goals, and resources of a hospital (i.e., the ROAD Home Intervention) compared to standard stewardship approaches reduce antibiotic overuse at discharge in hospitalized patients with CAP and UTI? The investigators will randomize 20 hospitals in the Michigan Hospital Medicine Safety Consortium (HMS) to the intervention group and 20 HMS hospitals to the "usual care" control group. During the study the investigators will: (a) assess baseline performance, existing stewardship strategies, hospital priorities, and resources; (b) develop a customized discharge stewardship "suite" for each intervention hospital based on the findings of the baseline assessment and informed by the ROAD Home Framework; and (c) support hospitals in selecting strategies and creating an implementation blueprint to be implemented over 12 to 15 months. After the intervention period, the investigators will compare days of antibiotic overuse at discharge and patient outcomes between intervention and "usual care" hospitals. It is hypothesized that hospitals randomized to the ROAD Home Intervention will have fewer days of antibiotic overuse at discharge compared to "stewardship as usual" control hospitals.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of oral TBP-PI-HBr as compared with intravenous (IV) imipenem-cilastatin with respect to the overall response (combined clinical cure plus microbiological eradication) at the Test-of-Cure (TOC) visit in hospitalized adult participants (≥18 years of age) with cUTI or AP.
This study investigates whether the oral intake of a nettle and cranberry complex capsule may prevent recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI). Participants will be aged between 30 - 75 years of age, with confirmed diagnosis of UTI status. The participants will be assessed for several parameters and asked to take 2 nettle and cranberry complex capsules twice daily for 8 weeks. The parameters will include international prostate symptoms score (IPSS), overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS), international consultation on incontinence questionnaire - overactive bladder (ICIQ-OAB), 3-day bladder diary (3dBD), and urine routine.
This study is a multicenter, randomized controlled study, with the urinary tract infection rate at the time of catheter insertion for 1 week as the primary end point. By comparing the clinical safety and effectiveness of two kinds of urethral catheters, to evaluate the clinical application effect of one kind of urethral catheters.
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 trial investigates whether a one-month course of preventative (prophylactic) antibiotics helps to reduce urinary tract infections after robot-assisted surgery to remove all of the bladder as well as nearby tissues and organs (radical cystectomy). Urinary tract infections are a common occurrence after robot-assisted radical cystectomy. Antibiotics such as trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole or nitrofurantoin may prevent or control infections in patients with urinary tract infection and may help improve their response to radical cystectomy. Information gained from this study may help researchers to predict patient complications and identify better ways to manage these complications.
This is a Phase 4, multi-center, open-label, randomized pragmatic superiority clinical trial comparing two strategies for initial or step-down oral therapy for complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) after 0-48 hours of parenteral antibiotic therapy. The trial will evaluate the success and safety of a strategy of initial or step-down fosfomycin, administered at a dose of 3 g once daily, vs. a strategy of initial or step-down levofloxacin administered at a dose of 750 mg once daily. Investigator-directed adjustment to another adequate oral therapy is allowed 1) if the causative pathogen is not susceptible in vitro to quinolone initial or step-down therapy in a subject randomized to the levofloxacin strategy, OR 2) if the subject develops an intolerance or allergy to the initial step-down oral therapy and at the investigator's discretion, OR 3) the subject has an underlying condition posing increasing risk for adverse events from quinolone therapy. The duration of oral therapy (initial + investigator-directed adjustment if indicated) in each strategy is 5-7 days of any per protocol antibiotic to which the pathogen is susceptible. The dosing of oral therapy depends on creatinine clearance (CrCl). The trial will enroll approximately 634 patients that are either male or female aged 18 or older with cUTI from outpatient and inpatient settings. The study will take place over 25 months in up to 15 US sites. The primary objective is to compare Strategy 1 and Strategy 2 in terms of treatment success rates at Test of Cure (TOC).
This thesis is a comparative study of the epidemiological characteristics of health-care associated bacteriuria in short and medium term of geriatrics wards in Strasbourg's University Hospital, between 2003 and 2017, in the follow-up of Eric de Pasquale's thesis in 2010. This comparative study will allow to see the evolution of urinary bacterial ecology, bacterial sensitivity to antibiotics, and the part of multi-resistant bacteria, during these 14 years in geriatric services in Strasbourg.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most commonly occurring bacterial infections in women, Asymptomatic bacteriuria (AB) is a common complication during pregnancy, with a prevalence of 2-10%. It has been associated with a greater incidence of symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI), as well as foetal and obstetric complications. Appropriate treatment reduces the incidence of UTI by 80-90%, as well as the risk of a premature birth and low-birth-weight baby Fosfomycin trometamol (Monuril) is approved in numerous countries worldwide, including various European countries and the USA, mainly for the treatment of uncomplicated UTIs
A clinical controlled, randomized and double blind trial that included adult patients (≥18 years) receiving kidney transplantation (KT) at the INCMNSZ. The intervention group will receive disodium fosfomycin 4 g intravenously in three moments: preoperative of transplant surgery, prior to removal of the urinary catheter and finally prior to removal of ureteral catheter. The control group will receive placebo in the same moments. Both groups will receive prophylaxis standard for urinary tract infection (UTI), with trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole 160/800 mg per day. This prophylaxis will be administered once the estimated glomerular filtration rate is greater than 30 mL/min/1.73m2. The primary objective is to compare the average number of episodes of UTI´s and asymptomatic bacteriuria in both groups after 7 weeks of follow-up. The secondary objectives are to know the incidence of asymptomatic bacteriuria, the incidence of hospitalizations for IVU, the days of hospital stay, the pattern of bacterial resistance, the safety of disodium fosfomycin, and assessment of the function of the graft and rejection rate.
