Filter by:The SCOUT study is a multi-center, centrally randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled non-inferiority clinical trial. 746 participants will be enrolled over a 4.5 year period. 672 will be evaluated for the study's primary outcome measure. After the first 5 days of primary care physician initiated antimicrobial therapy, patients who are afebrile and asymptomatic will then be randomized (1:1) to the standard course therapy arm of 5 more days of the same antibiotic therapy or the short course therapy arm of a placebo for 5 more days (for 10 days total). The primary objective of this study is to determine if halting antimicrobial therapy in subjects who have exhibited clinical improvement 5 days after starting antibiotic therapy (short course therapy) have the same failure rate (symptomatic UTI) through visit Day 11-14 as subjects who continue to take antibiotics for an additional 5 days (standard course therapy).
In this study, patients with uncomplicated urinary infection are investigated. It is investigated if treatment of only symptoms of the uncomplicated urinary infection is as effective as treatment with antibiotics with respect to the outcome of the urinary infection. If this is the case, the use of antibiotics in the treatment of uncomplicated urinary infections might be reduced. Secondary aim of the study is the safety evaluation of both treatment strategies with respect to SAEs during treatment. Additionally, relapse frequency after 28 days is evaluated.
The objective of the study is to assess safety and impact of a non-antibiotic therapy approach with Canephron® N in the management strategy of uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections (UTIs).
This is a study of patients undergoing gynecologic surgery who require post-operative catheterization to determine if prophylactic antibiotic treatment decreases the risk of post-operative urinary tract infection in these patients.
The investigators will measure the pharmacokinetics of doripenem in skeletal muscle, subcutaneous adipose tissue, bronchoalveolar lavage and plasma of intubated intensive care patients.
PP4001 is a medication not yet approved by the US FDA. This is a phase 2, multi-center, randomized, double-blind study of 3 doses of PP4001 versus placebo in the treatment of symptoms associated with uncomplicated urinary tract infection. After the screening, patients are randomized to receive one of three doses of PP4001 or placebo. Patients are screened and randomized on the same day, and take 4 doses of study drug, one dose every 12 hours. Data about uncomplicated urinary tract infection symptoms are collected from the subjects on electronic handheld devices throughout the 48-hour study period. The primary endpoint is burning during urination.
In this study the investigators will determine whether corticosteroids given at the time of urinary tract infection help prevent permanent damage to the kidneys.
Symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the main causes of morbidity and the main cause of re-hospitalization in subjects with neurogenic bladder. Long-term antibiotic therapy increases the risk of multi-resistant bacterial infections, without reducing the rate of symptomatic UTIs. Our non-comparative preliminary study has shown that Weekly Oral Cyclic Antibiotic Programme (single, weekly dose of antibiotic X on even weeks, and antibiotic Y on odd weeks) seem to drastically reduce both the number of symptomatic UTIs and the number of hospitalizations in patients with neurogenic bladder, without affecting bacterial ecology. The objective of this study is to validate this preliminary work with a large-scale randomized, parallel-group, multicenter study.
The purpose of this study is to compare urinary tract infection rates among women undergoing urogynecological procedures with a silver-alloy suprapubic catheter compared to the standard suprapubic catheter.
Approximately 10-27% of patients undergoing gynecologic surgeries develop a catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) in the post operatory period, as bladder catheterization is a common practice in gynecologic surgery. Cranberry products provide alternative means for preventing CAUTI and could result in decreased use of antimicrobials. In this pilot study we will enroll 200 women post gynecologic surgery and randomize them to take either cranberry powder capsules or placebo powder capsules. The low risk of harm associated with using cranberry to reduce UTI coupled with its potential benefit makes it a desirable intervention for the prevention of CAUTI. The conduct/ results of this pilot /feasibility study will prepare us for the conduct of a large scale clinical trial.
