Active clinical trials for "Peritonitis"

The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between intra-abdominal view and patient recovery in secondary peritonitis, and to create a new classification based on these results. Additionally, a variety of inflammatory markers from blood samples will be collected in order to analyze their correlation with patient outcomes.

The main objectif is assess the germs (species + antibiograms) implicated in children intra-abdominal infections (community acquired or nosocomial ) at CHU de Rennes.

Early detection and timely therapeutic intervention can improve the prognosis of patients with sepsis. However, early diagnosis of sepsis can be difficult; because determining which patients presenting with signs of infection during an initial evaluation, do currently have, or will later develop a more serious illness is not easy. Physiological deterioration often precedes clinical deterioration as patients develop critical illness. In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate vital signs in a global cohort of patients with acute secondary peritonitis, determining which parameters are statistically significant to predict in-hospital mortality and ICU admission.

Invasive candidiasis has a high mortality rate, around 40%. Outcome remains tightly linked to the time of treatment administration. Routine microbiological techniques give results too lately to allow prompt antifungal therapy initiation (at least 48 hours). It is important to develop diagnostic tools to initiate antifungal therapy as early as possible. The B D glucan detection, one of the major components of the candida cell wall, can be useful for a early diagnosis. There are several techniques on the market for the detection of glucan. In Europe and America, the most used is Fungitell (Associated of Cape Cod, Inc). There is several studies about the use of such kits for fungemia. A number of studies are reporting evidences of a early diagnosis. But, in medical literature, there isn't study focused on the detection of B D glucan in peritoneal fluid for Candida peritonitis diagnosis.

Procalcitonin level used for determining length of antibiotic treatment in peritonitis and intra-abdominal infections. Hypothesis is that length of antibiotic use can be shortened by this method.

Peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis is a common complication of peritoneal dialysis, which is the main cause of transfer from peritoneal dialysis to hemodialysis. Guidelines for International Society for peritoneal dialysis（ISPD）published in 2016 recommend that timely and adequate use of antibiotics is the most important part of treatment. Empiric treatment should be initiated as soon as possible after obtaining microbiological specimens，then adjust the antibiotics according to culture results and drug sensitivity of bacteria. Intraperitoneal antibiotic can ensure antibiotic concentrations at the local sites of the infection are maximized，however, in patients with renal failure, the investigators should pay attention to the nephrotoxicity caused by the reduction of renal excretion，being guided by Pharmacokinetic/ Pharmacodynamic Principle on antibiotic can develop dosing recommendations to optimize antibiotic efficacy and minimize toxicity. In this study, the investigators aim to detect the concentration of ceftazidime and cefazolin in CAPD patients，so as to analyze the pharmacokinetics parameters and evaluate the rationality of the treatment.

One of the most common and serious complications in decompensated cirrhotic patients (DCPs) is bacterial infection.The most common infections in DCPs are cases of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), which account for 40% 70% of cases, followed by urinary tract infections, pneumonia and cellulitis. Serum amyloid A (SAA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are acute-phase proteins predominantly produced and secreted by hepatocytes. Other cells including lymphocytes, monocytes, and macrophages can also produce these proteins. The induction of SAA and CRP synthesis is triggered by a number of cytokines, chiefly IL-6, which is released from a variety of cell types, but mainly from macrophages and monocytes at inflammatory sites

A progressive decline of plasma triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) concentration indicates a favorable clinical evolution during the recovery phase of sepsis. The expression of TREM-1 in dialysate of peritoneal dialysis patients was not yet documented. We will collect the dialysate of peritonitis in peritoenal dialysis patients and analyze the time serial change.

The study is aimed to revise the current criteria for the diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and the decisional thresholds to start treatment. The accuracy of current diagnostic tests will be compared with that of new tests, which could potentially become more accurate reference standards. This could lead to the definition of a more accurate and effective diagnostic algorithm.

SPAC is a pilote monocentric prospective study about peritonitis and antibiotics pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic. The investigators will included 50 patients during 2 years in the University Hospital of Nancy. The aim of this study is to determine if the beta-lactam dosages recommended by the guidelines for management of intra-abdominal infections (published by the Société française d'anesthésie et de réanimation (Sfar) in december 2015) permitted the achievement of adequatly serum and peritoneal concentrations in the medical and surgical management of peritonitis. The investigators will collected 3 pairs of serum and peritoneal fluid samples at 3 different times: peritoneal incision, arrival in ICU and 24 hours after admission in ICU in order to compare the concentrations and the minimal inhibitor concentration of bacteria. The hypothesis is that of a serum and peritoneal antibiotic under dosage.
