Filter by:The purpose of this prospective study is to investigate the association between the amount of residual urine and asymptomatic bacterial prostate infection with the occurrence of recurrent (>2 /year) symptomatic urinary tract infections in patients suffering from chronic (> 1 year) spinal cord injury (SCI) and neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction performing intermittent catheterization. The following hypotheses will be tested: 1. The amount of residual urine after intermittent catheterization is significantly greater in SCI patients suffering from frequent (>2 /year) urinary tract infections compared to those without. 2. The incidence of asymptomatic bacterial prostate infections is significantly higher in SCI patients suffering from frequent (>2 /year) urinary tract infections compared to those without.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Ceftazidime Avibactam compared to Doripenem for treating hospitalized patients with complicated urinary tract infections, including acute pyelonephritis
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).

This study is aimed at demonstrating the efficacy of temocillin in the treatment of complicated Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) due to confirmed Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL) producing or AmpC hyperproducing Enterobacteriaceae in the United Kingdom.
Children with posterior urethral valves (PUV) are at risk of presenting febrile urinary tract infections (UTI). Circumcision has been shown to decrease the number of febrile UTIs in healthy children. The effect of circumcision on the number of UTIs in boys with PUV has not yet been studied. Through a prospective randomised trial of children with posterior urethral valves the investigators wish to determine the effect of circumcision on the risk of presenting febrile UTIs. One group will be on antibiotic prophylaxis alone and the other will be on antibiotic prophylaxis plus circumcision performed at the time of valve resection. Both groups will be followed for two years, with clinical examination at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. A DMSA scan will be performed at 1-2 and 24 months and biological renal function will also be monitored. The relative risk of presenting a febrile UTI in each group will be determined. Clinical, radiological and antenatal data concerning each child will be analysed. At 24 months follow-up, an "impact on family scale" survey (IOFS) will be proposed parents.
The prevalence of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria found in urine sample cultures has been increasing over the past decades. The study hypothesis is to assess the clinical and microbiological outcome of pivmecillinam treatment of ESBL producing E. coli and K. Pneumoni, as well as to observe the clinical and microbiological outcome of the same group of bacteria treated with other antiinfectious agents. Samples are gathered in primary care setting.
Urinary tract infection is the most common bacterial infection during pregnancy. Asymptomatic bacteriuria is the most common infection, in up to 8% of the population. Symptomatic infection may cause cystitis or cause pyelonephritis. Among pregnant women with recurrent bacteriuria, preventive antibiotic treatment has been found to be efficacious in reducing the bacteriuria rate and the complications. the changes of the urinary tract which appear during pregnancy usually resolve up to 3 months post-partum. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of preventive antibiotic treatment during the puerperium.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of adding 125 mg or 250 mg doses of MK-7655 (relebactam) to imipenem/cilastatin in adults 18 years or older with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI). The primary hypothesis is that the relebactam + imipenem/cilastatin treatment regimen is non-inferior to imipenem/cilastatin with respect to the proportion of participants with a favorable microbiological response at completion of intravenous (IV) study 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.
