Active clinical trials for "Infections"

In this study, CE (European Conformity) marked, domestic manufactured standard orthopedic implants will be used after silver HA coating with electrospray method in 30 patients requiring hip joint prostheses, intramedullary nails or external fixator in 30 patients to antimicrobial effectiveness. These patients will be tasted for liver and kidney functions and blood and urine silver levels in addition to routine tests such as full blood, complete biochemistry, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate required in the normal diagnosis and treatment processes,

This Phase 3 study is intended to assess the efficacy of the Quadrivalent VLP Influenza Vaccine during the 2017-2018 influenza season in healthy adults 18 to 64 years of age. One dose of Quadrivalent VLP Influenza Vaccine (30 μg/strain) or of placebo will be administered to approximately 10,000 participants

One small recent trial in elderly volunteers showed that BCG vaccination can protect against infectious complications, while several studies have demonstrated an increased capacity of innate immune responses to react against pathogens. This process, also called trained immunity, generates the hypothesis that BCG vaccination can prevent or delay new infections in the elderly patients and is studied in the ACTIVATE trial

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and impact of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on the fecal and urine microbiome, urine metabolome, risk of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), and persistent multidrug resistant organism (MDRO) colonization of patients with a history of recurrent MDRO UTIs. This is an open label phase 1-2 study.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of 6 once-monthly doses of oral islatravir (60 mg and 120 mg) compared with placebo in adults at low risk of HIV-1 infection

The purpose of this study is to determine if use of the video camera surveillance system for HH observation and performance feedback about HH compliance rates can improve the HH compliance of HCWs and reduce healthcare-associated infections in the NICU.

This study determines the effectiveness of oral nystatin as prophylaxis in order to prevent systemic fungal infection in very low birth weight preterm neonates. 47 participants received oral nystatin and 48 participants received sterile water as part of oral hygiene.

This a cluster randomised controlled trial (cRCT) to evaluate the effect of a novel food hygiene intervention on infant health.

This is a comprehensive randomized cluster hand-hygiene improvement intervention to reduce: self-reported acute respiratory tract infections (ARI) / influenza-like-illness (ILI) and gastrointestinal (GI) illness, absenteeism, presenteeism; and related behavioral and attitudinal change over a 90 day trial. The Intervention group will receive hand hygiene supplies, and a variety of educational materials, including environmental posters in common areas. The control group will perform their usual hygiene activities and will not receive an intervention. Identical weekly surveys will be administered to the intervention and control groups to measure self-reported illness, absenteeism, presenteeism, along with behavior and attitudes measured at specified intervals during the study. The intervention and control groups were randomized by work floors before the onset of the enrollment period. It is hypothesized that employees in the intervention group will experience reduced self-reported illness, absenteeism and presenteeism along with improved protective hygiene behaviors and related attitudes, relative to those in the control group over the 90-day trial.

Twenty-four healthy hookworm-naive volunteers will be exposed to 50 L3 Necator americanus larvae for a maximum of three times.
