Active clinical trials for "Soft Tissue Infections"

This study is to determine whether antibiotic therapy is needed for patients with non-life threatening soft tissue infections. Most patients with these soft tissue infections are presently treated with antibiotics. Many of these infections resolve without proper antibiotic treatment. Treatment of patients with antibiotics after surgical drainage of an abscess may not be necessary and indiscriminate use of antibiotics may lead to colonization by drug-resistant organisms. Subsequent infection by drug resistant organisms may limit the choice of antibiotics in more complicated infections. A comparison between antibiotic treatment and no antibiotic treatment in surgically treated, uncomplicated soft tissue infections is needed to address this very important question.

To determine if linezolid is superior to vancomycin in the treatment of complicated skin and soft tissue infections due to MRSA in adult subjects

The presence of alveolar ridge deficiencies is considered major limitation to achieve an implant-prosthetic restoration with high aesthetics and stability over time. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) can be considered an effective solution for bone augmentation. The most advanced technology of GBR is the customized titanium mesh, which is developed with a fully digital work flow system. The aim of this study is to evaluate complications and bone augmentation rates after GBR, based on customized meshes with or without collagen membranes. After ethical committee approval, 30 patients with horizontal and/or vertical bone defects were enrolled and treated according to the study protocol. During reconstructive surgery (T0), patients were randomly divided into two study groups: 15 patients were treated by means of a custom-made mesh without collagen membrane (Group A - Control Group), while 15 patients were treated by means of a custom-made titanium mesh with a collagen membrane (Group B - Test Group). All sites were grafted with a mixture 50:50 of autogenous bone and xenograft and primary closures of surgical sites were obtained to ensure a submerged healing of the meshes. After 6 months (T1), re-entry surgery was completed to remove the meshes, evaluate the augmented volume and to place implants in the augmented sites. After 3 months (T2), soft tissue management was accomplished with implant exposure and a connective tissue graft, before prosthetic restoration (T3). Data collection included surgical and healing complications, planned bone volume (PBV) and reconstructed bone volume (RBV), pseudo-periosteum type, bone density, implant success, and crestal bone loss. A statistical analysis of recorded data was performed to investigate any statistically significant differences between the study group and statistical significance was set at a=0.05.

At present research has generated controversy regarding the utility of antiseptics in wound management for diabetic foot ulcers syndrome. However, these studies have been done in tissues and animal models. This study involves the best presently antiseptic for residual effect and low toxicity in an approach to eliminate microorganisms promoters formation of biofilm, contributing to the treatment for accelerated closure the diabetic foot ulcers syndrome . So it is necessary to determine if irrigation ulcer diabetic foot syndrome with chlorhexidine 0.125 % aqueous solution determines the decrease of the surface to a greater extent than the standard treatment using irrigation with sterile deionized water .

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Delafloxacin versus Vancomycin plus Aztreonam in the treatment of patients with acute bacterial skin and soft tissue infections.

This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending single dose safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic study of orally administered EDP-322. This study was conducted at a single site. EDP-322 has a benefit to risk profile that supports testing in target patient populations.

multicenter, randomized (1:1), semi-single blind study comparing the safety and efficacy of HDSD daptomycin (10 mg/kg q24h for 4 days) with that of comparator (vancomycin +/- SSP for 7-14 days) in patients with cSSSI due to Gram-positive bacteria. Patients will be randomized on a 1:1 basis to receive either daptomycin 10 mg/kg i.v. q24h for 4 days or vancomycin 1 g. q12h for up to 14 days.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether AB103 is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTI) receiving standard of care therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of omadacycline as compared to linezolid in the treatment of adults with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the use Provodine as an antiseptic and hand wash once daily for at least 7 days will have better healing, better health outcomes, fewer treatment failures and fewer infections themselves and among their household contacts than those who do not use Provodine.
