Usual practice
Empirical antibiotic treatment chosen based on the results of the integron search: when PCR is negative, patients will receive SXT (30 mg/kg/j of sulfamethoxazole and 6 mg/kg/j of trimethoprim) when PCR is positive or uninterpretable for integrons, patients will receive an empirical antibiotic treatment based on the usual practice of each center according to the GPIP guidelines.
Empirical antibiotic treatment based on the usual practice of each center according to the GPIG guidelines.
