AbscessWound Infection2 more

The primary object is to compare the early clinical efficacy (after 48-72 hours of therapy) of dalbavancin to the comparator regimen (vancomycin with the option to switch to oral linezolid) for the treatment of patients with a suspected or proven gram-positive bacterial skin or skin structure infection.

Staphylococcus Aureus Decolonization Study

Staphylococcal Skin InfectionsAbscesses3 more

The purpose of this study is to determine whether measures to eliminate the Staph germ from the skin of the index patient (with a special ointment and soap) are more effective when performed by everyone in the household rather than the patient alone, and whether these methods are effective in preventing future Staph infections. The investigators hypothesize that there will be a greater number of households who are successful in eradicating the staph germ from the index patient when all members of the household participate than households where only the index patient is treated.

Cold Atmospheric Plasma Device for Pediatric Molluscum and Verruca

Verruca VulgarisMolluscum Contagiosum Skin Infection

This study is going to test a cold atmospheric plasma device (CAP), in particular a floating electrode-dielectric barrier device (FE-DBD), to treat warts and molluscum. The treatment device in this study generates cold atmospheric plasma (gaseous ionized molecules) to rid the virus from the body. Based on the successes of previous dermatologic studies, FE-DBD is being tested for this study to treat warts and molluscum. Patients will be enrolled to test the efficacy and safety of this device. The duration of the study is 4-12 weeks depending on treatment clearance. The number of lesions will be chosen by the dermatologist. Patients will receive standard of care therapy and/or NTAP depending on the number of lesions.

The Effects of Iontophoresis in Women With Gynoid Hidrolipodystrophy.

CaffeineCellulitis

Introduction: Gynoid hydrolipodystrophy (HLDG) or cellulitis is a subcutaneous tissue disorder, with several strategies for its treatment, such as caffeine and iontophoresis. Objective: To evaluate the effects of caffeine-associated iontophoresis for the treatment of HLDG. Methods: In a longitudinal study, participants will be evaluated for: photographic documentation, ultrasound imaging, thermography and quality of life questionnaire. If included, they will be separated into 3 randomized groups (n = 30). G1: use of base gel (n = 10); G2: use of iontophoresis and gel with caffeine (n = 10) and G3: use of iontophoresis alone (n = 10). The groups will be treated with 10 sessions, 2 times per week. After that they will be reevaluated. Statistical analysis: The software used will be the SPSS StatisticalPackage (IBM SPSS Statistics, Chicago, IL, USA). The data distribution will be analyzed by the Shapiro-Wilk test. In case of normal distribution, the data will be described as mean ± standard deviation; otherwise, as median [interquartile range 25-75%]. For comparison of the data, we will use ANOVA and for comparison of means the Tukey test and case not normal distribution, krulskal-Wallis test and the Dunns test. The level of statistical significance adopted will be P <0.05. Expected contributions: It is expected that investigators can contribute to the treatment of patients with HLDG and analyze the effects of iontophoresis with caffeine, both in clinical and scientific practice, providing a method that is valid and reliable for this purpose; multidisciplinary training of highly qualified human resources and the strengthening and consolidation of a research team.

Evaluation of Daptomycin for the Emergency Department Treatment of Complicated Skin and Skin Structure...

CellulitisSkin Infections

This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial comparing daptomycin to vancomycin in the Emergency Department (ED) treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infection in the Rapid Diagnosis and Treatment Center (RDTC). In brief, a convenience sample of patients who are admitted to the RDTC cellulitis protocol in the ED will be randomized to either vancomycin, which is currently an accepted care standard in the RDTC cellulitis protocol, or daptomycin, which is the experimental treatment in this study. The primary hypothesis is that daptomycin treatment is as efficacious as standard therapy in the treatment of ED cellulitis.
