Filter by:Recently more advanced techniques, including Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) are available to detect bacteria in urine based on bacterial genomes. Comparing to traditional culture, these techniques have more sensitivity and could potentially be of a great help in patients with Colony Count of less than 10,000 and more than zero.
In this study, we evaluate peri- and postoperative parameters of patients undergoing a cystectomy and try to find risk factors for infectious complications. In detail, we analyze their medical history, demographic data, lab values, microbiological tests as well as histological and radiological findings. Furthermore, after discharging our patients, we send them several follow-up questionnaires at regular intervals and offer them free follow-up examinations.
INVICTUS PED primary objective is to show the non-inferiority of an empirical antibiotic therapeutic management guided by the early detection of integrons in the urine, compared to a usual empirical antibiotic treatment, for the recovery of children admitted to the pediatric emergency department (ED) with a non-severe urinary tract infection (UTI) with fever
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the rate of perioperative infection complications in transperineal prostate biopsy between the group that receives prophylactic antibiotic and the group that receives placebo. The types of infection studied included bacteriuria, urinary tract infection (UTI), UTI with fever (febrile UTI), and sepsis. This study hypothesized that the administration of prophylactic antibiotics during transperineal prostate biopsy would result in lower rates of perioperative infection complications.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, non-inferiority study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of FEP-ZID vs. meropenem in the treatment of hospitalized adults with cUTI or AP. Approximately 528 hospitalized adult subjects (≥ 18 years of age) diagnosed with cUTI or AP will be enrolled in the study. The diagnosis of cUTI or AP will be based on a combination of clinical symptoms and signs plus the presence of pyuria. The total duration of treatment with study drug is 7 to 10 days. Each subject must remain hospitalized during the study drug treatment period; no outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy is allowed.
Randomized clinical trial in which women aged 18 or older and with symptoms of uncomplicated lower urinary tract infection and a positive urine dipstick analysis will be randomized to one of the following four groups: 2-day 3 g fosfomycin o.d., 3-day pivmecillinam 400 mg. t.i.d, 5-day nitrofurantoin 100 mg t.i.d. or a single dose of 3 g of fosfomycin. Sample: 1,000 patients. Two co-primary endpoints are considered: clinical effectiveness at day 7 and bacteriological eradication at day 14. Follow-up visits are scheduled at days 7 (phone call), 14 and 28 for assessing evolution. Urine samples will be collected in the three on-site visits and urine cultures performed.
The value of cytobacteriological examination of urine (CBEU) before double J catheter removal has not been demonstrated. The aim of this study is to define the interest of this CBEU.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of 9-valent extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli vaccine (ExPEC9V) compared to placebo in the prevention of the first invasive extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli disease (IED) event caused by ExPEC9V O-serotypes.
Urinary tract infections (UTI) are commonly encountered in children, with 7% diagnosed with at least one UTI by the age of 19 years. The evidence for treatment of uncomplicated UTI is clear; oral antibiotics are as good as intravenous (IV) antibiotics, usually for a total of 7 days. Complicated UTIs (cUTIs) on the other hand, are common reasons for hospital admissions for IV antibiotics and constitute a major burden for healthcare systems. There is considerable variation in care for children who present with UTI and have complicating features such as vomiting, dehydration, urological abnormalities or have a previous history of UTI. Australian and international guidelines lack clear, evidence-based recommendations to guide treatment in this group. Without gold standard evidence, these children will continue to receive unnecessary IV antibiotics, longer hospital stays and poorer health outcomes. This multicentre, non-inferiority randomised trial will investigate if One dose - single dose of IV followed by 2 days oral antibiotics is as non-inferior to Three doses for children with UTI and co-existing complicating factors presenting to the Emergency Department (ED). In other words, this study will compare if a single dose of IV antibiotics plus two days oral antibiotics is as clinically effective as 3 doses antibiotics in resolving UTI symptoms at 72 hours after the first dose of IV antibiotics, for complicated UTIs in children presenting to the ED. All participants will receive a total of 7 days of antibiotics for the complicated urinary tract infection. If 1 dose IV and 2 days oral antibiotics is found to be as good as 3 days, the duration of IV antibiotics for complicated UTI can be reduced along with avoidance of the inherent risks of unnecessary hospital admission by administering a single IV dose in an outpatient/ED setting. On the other hand if a single IV dose results in prolonged symptoms or treatment failure, this will inform practice for the proportion of children who have a single dose of IV antibiotics in the ED and are sent home on oral antibiotics. Regardless of the outcome, this trial will inform clinical practice for complicated UTI to improve health outcomes for this group.
The aim of this study was to initially evaluate the optimal dose, efficacy, and safety of vitamin D3 for reducing recurrence of recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs).
