Active clinical trials for "Bacterial Infections"

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tigecycline in the treatment of selected serious infections caused by VRE. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the clinical response for all subjects.

This study compares 2 different treatments administered to try to prevent serious bacterial infections (such as pneumonia) in HIV-positive children. A combination of drugs (azithromycin plus atovaquone) will be compared to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SMX/TMP) alone. This study also evaluates the long-term safety and tolerance of these different drugs. SMX/TMP is a commonly prescribed drug for the prevention of bacterial infections. However, the combination of azithromycin and atovaquone may be safer and more effective than SMX/TMP. This study compares the 2 treatments.

caries-free (CF) individuals caries-active (CA) individuals (DMFT ≥ 6) will be recruited. Subjects will be instructed to brush their teeth twice daily for 3 min using Colgate® Sensitive Pro-Relief® toothpaste (containing 8% arginine and 1450 ppm NaF) for 2 weeks. Supra- and subgingival plaque, saliva, and in situ plaque samples will be collected before and after the treatment for laboratory analyses.

Secondary bacterial pathogen infection has been demonstrated to aggravate COVID-19 clinical outcomes. Bacterial infections acquired during a hospital stay are likely resistant to several antimicrobial medicines, making COVID-19 patient management difficult. As a result, it is believed that aerosolized colistin might be a viable choice for treating secondary bacterial infections caused by gram-negative resistant strains in individuals who also have COVID-19 infection.

A study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of Retapamulin Ointment, 1%, in pediatric subjects (2-24 months) with secondarily-infected traumatic lesions, secondarily-infected dermatoses, or impetigo (bullous and non-bullous).

Purpose: To provide a mechanism for the emergency use of tigecycline in the appropriate clinical situations.

The aim of this study is to identify predictive factors of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms in patients with cirrhosis and to develop and validate (internally and externally) a predictive model that might be useful to use in clinical settings to stratify the risk and lead clinical decision-making strategies.

The goal of this observational study is to compare the results of a serum biomarker called the MeMed BV®, which is approved to help differentiate between bacterial and viral respiratory infections, to clinical diagnoses of adult emergency department patients presenting with recent fever and signs or symptoms of a respiratory infection. Active participation is completed during the emergency department visit and includes drawing blood, obtaining a sputum sample, and answering survey questions.

The current study aimed to explore the pharmacokinetics of temocillin in patients treated with haemodialysis and to demonstrated whether or not the pharmacodynamics target of a time above a MIC of 16 mg/L of more than 40 and 60 % of the dosing interval could be obtained with a dosing schedule of 1 gram/24 hours, 2 gram/48 hours and 3 gram/72 hours, all of these doses given after haemodialysis sessions only.

To compare the uptake of azithromycin in white cells relative to plasma concentrations in HIV-infected patients.
