Filter by:Antibiotic resistance is a serious and increasing worldwide threat to global public health. One of antibiotic stewardship programmes' objectives is to reduce inappropriate broad-spectrum antibiotics' prescription. Selective reporting of antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) results, which consists of reporting to prescribers only few (n=5-6) antibiotics, preferring first-line and narrow-spectrum agents, is one possible strategy advised in recommendations. However, selective reporting of AST has never been evaluated using an experimental design. This study is a pragmatic, prospective, multicentre, controlled (selective reporting vs usual complete reporting of AST), before-after (year 2019 vs 2017) study. Selective reporting of AST is scheduled to be implemented from September 2018 in the ATOUTBIO group of 21 laboratories for all E. coli identified in urine cultures in adult outpatients, and to be compared to the usual complete AST performed in the EVOLAB group of 20 laboratories. The main objective is to assess the impact of selective reporting of AST for E. coli positive urine cultures in the outpatient setting on the prescription of broad-spectrum antibiotics frequently used for urinary tract infections (amoxicillin-clavulanate, third generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones). The primary endpoint is the after (2019) - before (2017) difference in prescription rates for the previously mentioned antibiotics/classes that will be compared between the two laboratory groups, using linear regression models. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the feasibility of selective reporting of AST implementation by French laboratories and their acceptability by organising focus groups and individual semi-structured interviews with general practitioners and laboratory professionals.
The study will test the ability of specially formulated nutritional supplement capsules to extend the time between recurrent urinary tract infections in women. This objective will be completed by enrolling women who have suffered from 3-4 uncomplicated UTIs in the past 12 months into a double blind placebo controlled cross-over trial. Cross-over and study completion are triggered by the next two UTI recurrences. The goal of the study is for the supplement to extend the time to the next UTI for study participants as compared to placebo.
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.
Gepotidacin (GSK2140944) is a novel triazaacenaphthylene bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor that is being developed for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs; acute cystitis). This Phase IIa study will evaluate plasma and urine pharmacokinetics of gepotidacin in female subjects with acute cystitis. Eligible female subjects will receive twice daily (BID) dose of gepotidacin 1500 milligram (mg) for 5 days via oral route. Pre-treatment and post-treatment samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) assessments will be collected throughout the study. The total duration of the study is approximately 28 days.
Asymptomatic bacteriuria (AB) is a condition in which bacteria are detected in urine culture without urinary symptoms. The inappropriate use of antibiotic treatment for AB selects bacterial flora to express resistance mutations. Reducing inappropriate antibiotic use for AB is difficult, since the microbiology laboratory cannot distinguish patients with AB. The investigators study will use a restricted laboratory report requesting the physician to call the laboratory for culture results. The restricted report may reduce the rate of inappropriate treatment of AB.
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
TEMO-CARB is a phase 3, randomized, controlled, multicentre, open-label pragmatic clinical trial to test the non-inferiority of temocillin versus carbapenem as initial intravenous treatment of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) due to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing enterobacteriaceae.
The purpose of this study is to: 1) describe drug utilization for Fluoroquinolone(FQ), Azithromycin (AZ) and Sulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim(ST) in the entire Truven MarketScan Commercial Claims and Encounters database (CCAE) database, and specifically among individuals in the Health and Productivity Management (HPM) during the observation period; 2) describe the rate of disability associated with 2 or more System Organ Class adverse events (SOC AEs) and exposure to FQs for several acute, uncomplicated indications; and 3) compare the rates of disability for 2 or more SOC AEs and exposure to FQs and AZ/ST for the same indications.
The primary focus of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the usefulness of urinalysis prior to in-office urology procedures.
We aim to compare the effectiveness of cranberry capsules versus nitrofurantoin prophylaxis in preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs) after urogynecologic surgery by conducting a double-blinded randomized clinical trial involving women with pelvic organ prolapse and/or urinary incontinence scheduled to have surgery with the Urogynecologists who comprise the Brigham and Women's Urogynecology Group.
