Retapamulin Microdialysis Feasibility Study

Skin InfectionsBacterial

This feasibility study will allow for the determination of the in vivo recovery and time of dialysis to optimize a future thorough microdialysis study. This is a single session, open label study to evaluate the feasibility of microdialysis for Retapamulin in healthy subjects. Three healthy subjects will be enrolled and complete the study procedures. Subjects will be admitted to the research unit on Day 1 and three microdialysis probes will be placed in the thigh of each subject prior to the start of the microdialysis procedure. After normal saline solution infusion for 30 minutes, a Retapamulin solution will be infused for 90 minutes. Saline perfusion will occur during the washout period. Microdialysis sampling will be done for 30 minutes (during the last 30 minutes of drug perfusion) and dialysate sample collection will continue every 30 minutes for 4 hours. The approximate duration of study including follow-up is 4 days.

Study of New Antibiotic Regimen for the Treatment of Uncomplicated Cellulitis in Emergency Department...

Cellulitis

The primary aim of this study is to quantify the effectiveness of Bactrim as additional therapy for the treatment of uncomplicated cellulitis in adults, by comparing: standard therapy plus Bactrim, versus standard therapy plus placebo. The primary hypothesis of this study is that, in light of increasing CA-MRSA prevalence, subjects treated with standard therapy plus Bactrim will have higher cure rates than those treated with standard therapy plus placebo.

Comparison of Cephalexin Versus Clindamycin for Suspected CA-MRSA Skin Infections

Staphylococcal InfectionAbscess2 more

The purpose of this study is to help define the role of antibiotics in the treatment of pediatric skin infections caused by community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA). The investigators hypothesize that treatment with cephalexin, a penicillin-like antibiotic to which CA-MRSA would be expected to be resistant, does not result in poorer outcomes than treatment with clindamycin, an antibiotic to which CA-MRSA is most often susceptible.

Adjunctive Clindamycin for Cellulitis: C4C Trial.

Cellulitis

The aim of this study is to see whether the addition of Clindamycin, a protein inhibiting antibiotic, to the standard antibiotic treatment of limb cellulitis, with Flucloxacillin, results in less tissue damage and a more rapid resolution of both systemic and local features, in a cost-effective manner. This study is a randomised controlled trial comparing Clindamycin with placebo.

Retapamulin Versus Linezolid in the Treatment of SITL and Impetigo Due to MRSA

Skin InfectionsBacterial

The purpose of this study is to provide further evidence of the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of retapamulin in the treatment of subjects with SITL or impetigo due to MRSA. Subjects aged 2 months and older will be treated with either topical retapamulin for 5 days or oral linezolid for 10 days. The primary endpoint is the clinical response at follow-up (7-9 days after the end of therapy) in subjects who have a MRSA infection at baseline. The primary population is the per-protocol MRSA population. It is anticipated that approximately 500 subjects may be enrolled in order to obtain approximately 105 subjects who have a baseline MRSA infection.

Study of Wound Packing After Superficial Skin Abscess Drainage

AbscessSkin Diseases7 more

Superficial skin and soft tissue abscess are frequently managed by opening them up with a procedure called "incision and drainage". It is routine practice in the United States to place packing material inside the abscess cavity after opening them up, in order to promote better wound healing and limit abscess recurrence. However, this practice has never been systematically studied or proven to decrease complications or improve healing. Patients with wound packing usually return to the emergency room or practice setting for multiple "wound checks" and dressing/packing changes which lead to missed days from work or school and utilization of healthcare resources. This procedure can often be painful and may even require conscious sedation (and the risks entailed) especially in children. With rates of superficial skin and soft tissue abscesses on the rise, and emergency room resources being stretched, it is important to determine whether packing wounds is necessary or even advantageous to patients. This study is the first to systematically evaluate the efficacy of wound packing after superficial skin or soft tissue abscess incision and drainage in children. The investigators will be evaluating wound healing, complications, recurrence and pain associated with packing both short and long term. In addition, the investigators will also be evaluating the utility of bedside point-of-care ultrasound use in predicting the presence of pus inside the abscess cavity. This test may be useful to determine whether incision and drainage is necessary for an individual who has a skin infection that is suspicious for an abscess.
