Filter by:The aim of this cohort study is to validate Viture®, a continuous temperature telemonitoring system, evaluating the level of agreement with a standard commercially available digital axillary thermometer. The study also aims to evaluate the safety and comfort of the system and to evaluate the impact that the introduction of Viture has on the health care practice of a HaH unit. Furthermore, the advantages of Viture compared to the standard method will be evaluated.
Double-blind placebo-controlled randomized trial aiming to assess the role of Vitamin C supplementation in the prevention of catheter-associated urinary tract infections in women undergoing elective gynecological surgeries.
This study is a multi-center, randomized, single-blind, parallel-group study to assess the efficacy and safety, when nacubactam is coadministered with cefepime or aztreonam, compared with best available therapy (BAT), in the treatment of patients with cUTI, AP, HABP, VABP, and cIAI, due to Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacterales.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common bacterial infections in women. 50% of women experiencing at least one UTI in their lifetime with an annual prevalence of 0.5-0.7%. An interventional, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will be conducted to investigate the effect of a probiotic strains on the urinary tract microbiota in participants with recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI). The study duration will be 6 and a half months, including 6 months product intake. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three study groups: control group with placebo administration, probiotic administration group (1 dose) and probiotic administration group (2 doses).
Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cefepime/nacubactam or aztreonam/nacubactam compared to imipenem/cilastatin in the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) or acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis (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.
The number of care home residents is increasing and urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common amongst this group. Accurate diagnosis of UTI is important because not treating an infection may lead to serious consequences including death. However, giving antibiotic treatment when there isn't an infection causes side effects and antibiotic resistance, making future infections harder to treat. Unfortunately, there are several challenges that mean that it is difficult to diagnose UTI accurately in care home residents. Firstly, UTIs don't always cause clear symptoms for people who live in care homes. They sometimes just cause symptoms like confusion which can have lots of different possible causes. Secondly, it may be hard for people living with dementia to say how they are feeling or to easily provide a urine sample. Thirdly, many people who live in care homes have bacteria present in their urine even when they are well, but this not harmful and does not need treatment. Finally, urine tests that are currently available do not give accurate or quick results. We have thought about some new ways that might help show us if someone in a care home really has a UTI but we don't know yet whether these will work. Our ideas include 1) Working out which symptoms or signs mean a UTI is more likely 2) Detecting new markers of infection in urine samples and 3) Trying out new bedside tests that give rapid results. For this study we plan to recruit 100 care home residents who will be followed up over 6 months. All 100 participants will provide information and a urine sample at the beginning of the study. 25 of these participants will also provide repeated weekly samples for 4 weeks to look at any changes in the urine over time. Additional information and urine samples will be collected if a participant develops a possible UTI during the study and any treatments will be recorded. Our findings will be used to develop a funding application for a larger study aiming to improve the diagnosis of UTI in care home residents.
The goal of this individual patient data meta-analysis is to estimate the attributed and the associated health burden related to bloodstream infections, pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infections, surgical site infections and urinary tract infections, caused by target drug-resistant pathogens, in high income countries. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are common infections caused by drug-resistant pathogens associated with an increased health burden, when compared with individuals with the same infection caused by a susceptible strain (attributed burden)? - Are common infections caused by drug-resistant pathogens associated with an increase health burden, when compared with individuals without the infection under study (associated burden)?
This is a comparative, randomized, controlled pilot study. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, comfort, and patient experience in people with long-term bladder catheterization with T-Control® versus patients with a conventional Foley-type catheter.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections managed in general practice: they are the 2nd site of community-acquired bacterial infection after respiratory infections (4-6 million consultations per year in France). UTIs represent 15% of total antibiotic prescriptions in France. Antibiotics recommended for UTIs, except for cystitis, are considered as "critical" (highly generating bacterial resistances). UTIs are a potential source of antibiotic resistance: often inappropriate antibiotic prescriptions, evolution of the resistance profiles of the bacteria involved, emergence of multi-resistant strains. The first hypothesis is that there are other profiles of clinical UTI situations in general practice than typical cystitis or pyelonephritis, including intermediate forms. The second hypothesis is that these intermediate forms of UTI are subject to longer durations of antibiotherapy, and that probable explanatory factors need to be identified.
