Active clinical trials for "Infections"

This retrospective analysis of medical records is to identify risk factors for treatment failures in fracture-associated infections (FAI) at the University Hospital Basel.

The overall objective of this investigation is to understand the patient response to a robotic platform used to facilitate telehealth triage in the emergency department during the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the manner in which emergency department triage is completed. Attempts at cohorting individuals with potential COVID-19 disease in order to prevent disease transmission to healthcare workers and minimize the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) have renewed interest in telemedical solutions as a method to triage and manage individuals with COVID-19. This investigation deploys a legged robotic platform to facilitate agile, highly mobile telemedicine to manage COVID-19 patients in the emergency department. The primary objective is to measure the patient response to interacting with these systems.

This cross-sectional study will screen out hepatitis D virus-infected patients in HBsAg-positive people. Observe and describe the prevalence of hepatitis D infection among HBsAg positive people. The provinces of China are divided into 5 geographical areas (North, South, East, West and Central) to recruit patients according to the population density of each area. After statistical calculation, the total number of population needed is 3808.

Subjects will receive an oral dose of SER-109 in 4 capsules once daily for 3 consecutive days. The purpose of this study is to provide access to SER-109 for adult subjects with recurrent Clostridioides Difficile Infection (RCDI) and to monitor subject safety and report to regulatory authorities, as appropriate.

Clinical trial, that aim is evaluation of the use of taurolidine and heparin in the prevention of bloodstream infection in venous catheter in children with intestinal failure.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the microbes (bacteria) that live in the vagina and the bladder. The investigators are doing this research study to understand the relationship between microbes (the microbiome) and the occurrence of urinary tract infection following surgical removal of the uterus and pelvic organ prolapse repair. The investigators expect Lactobacillus and Gardnerella will be the dominant organisms for most women. Non-Lactobacillus dominant microbiome communities will be more common in women who ultimately develop postoperative urinary tract infection.

Infectious endocarditis is a serious pathology with difficult diagnosis especially on prosthetic valves or cardiac device because of the plurality of clinical presentations and the low sensitivity value of echocardiography in these patients. Despite a well validated indication for the detection of septic emboli, the value of FDG-PET for the detection of prosthetic valves or cardiac implantable device is still unclear especially because of frequent non-septic inflammatory processes. To improve the specificity value, the use of radio-labeled leukocytes scintigraphy is conventionally proposed. An alternative method is to label leukocytes in vivo with an anti-murin anti body fragment ( Sulesomab , Leukoscan®). This scintigraphy is regularly used in the investigation of osteomyelitis and has been proposed in infectious endocarditis. To knowledge of investigators, the value of Leukoscan® scintigraphy on prosthetic valve or cardiac device infection had not been studied.

The purpose of this study was about survey of prevalence of fungal infections among drug users referring to methadone wards of Hospitals in northeast region of Iran

Vascular Prothesis Infection is a rare but an extremely serious complication. Diagnosis is often difficult (germs are found only in 50% of cases). Conventional imagery is often non-specific and difficult to interpret especially in early postoperative phase. Leukocytes isolated from the patient's blood are labeled with a radiopharmaceutical technetium 99mTc-HMPAO. The aim of this study is to assess the overall diagnostic performance of scintigraphy (hybrid SPEC-CT) with labeled leucocytes in diagnosis of subdiaphragmatic vascular prothesis infection.

Cosavirus and Salivirus are two new genera of Picornaviridae and are responsible for acute diarrhoea. They have been identified in the pathological stools of infants and immuno-compromised subjects on every continent with prevalences ranging from 2.8% to 8.8% depending on the virus, the cohort and the country studied. To date, no study on these two viruses has been conducted in France to evaluate the circulation and the pathogenicity of these viruses in subjects with diarrhoea. The aim of this study is thus to: show that these viruses are in circulation in France in infants younger than 5 years old and that the proportions are similar to those reported in the literature. confirm the relationship between the diarrhoea and the infection with these viruses.
