Pharmacokinetics Study of Intraperitoneal Administration of Daptomycin in Peritoneal Infection

Peritoneal Infection

Peritoneal infection is still a frequent complication in peritoneal dialysis patients . In France, It contributes to the technique failure, responsible for about 20% of cases of transfer in hemodialysis. The risk of direct mortality is estimated at 1 to 6% according to studies. Peritoneal infection is involved in the dysfunction of the peritoneal membrane. Based on the recommendations of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, the intraperitoneal route is preferentially recommended. For many antibiotics, pharmacokinetics (intravenous and intraperitoneal) was studied and protocols for IP administration were validated. Daptomycin, is a cyclic lipopeptide natural, active only on Gram-positive bacteria. It is presented as an alternative to vancomycin in infections resistant pathogens. The stability of daptomycin in peritoneal dialysis fluids (PDF) has been tested, and antimicrobial activity as well. Seven patients were treated with daptomycin intraperitoneally successfully. But no study has reported pharmacokinetics of daptomycin via the IP route. We propose a pharmacokinetic study of daptomycin administered intraperitoneally in 12 patients on CAPD and with Gram-positive peritoneal infection.

SIS Multicenter Study of Duration of Antibiotics for Intraabdominal Infection

Peritonitis

The major hypothesis to be tested is that the treatment of intraabdominal infections that have been adequately treated operatively or by percutaneous techniques with three to five days of antibiotics will result in outcomes equivalent to the current standard where treatment is carried out until the patient has returned to normal (normal white blood cell count, temperature, and intestinal function), and that patients treated for three to five days will receive fewer days of antibiotics than the control group that has traditionally received seven to 14 days of treatment.

Primary vs. Secondary Anastomosis for Hinchey Stage III-IV Diverticulitis a Prospective Randomized...

Peritonitis

This study compares primary resection with anastomosis and Hartmann's procedure in an adult population with acute perforated colonic diverticulitis (Hinchey Stage III and IV) METHODS: The primary end point was postoperative mortality. Secondary end points included surgical and medical morbidity, operative time, and length of postoperative hospitalization.

Postoperative Peritonitis

The investigators purpose is to demonstrate that a short antibiotic therapy (8 days) for postoperative peritonitis brings an increased number of antibiotic-free days over a 28 days period when compared to conventional (15 days) treatment.

Hartmann vs R/A in Peritonitis by Perforated Diverticulitis

Peritonitis Caused by Perforated Left-sided Colon Diverticulitis

This prospective randomized trial is to prove the equivalence of primary sigmoid resection with end colostomy(Hartmann)(GROUP A) and primary sigmoid resection and immediate anastomosis with diverting stoma (GROUP B)with regard to morbidity and mortality in patients with peritonitis caused by perforated left-sided colon diverticulitis.

Imipenem Versus Cefepime in Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis and to Evaluate the Risk Factors for...

Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis

All consecutive patients with Cirrhosis and ascites admitted to ILBS (Institute of Liver & Biliary Sciences) will be evaluated for the presence of SBP (Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis) by ascitic fluid examination at admission. SBP (Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis) will be diagnosed in the presence of absolute neutrophil count (ANC >250/mm3) with/without positive ascitic fluid culture and Patients with SBP (Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis) included in the study will be randomized to receive cefepime or imipenem. However, other SBP (Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis) patients not included for randomization will be given empirical therapy with 3rd generation cephalosporin (ceftriaxone).

Delayed Small-Bowel Anastomosis in Patients With Postoperative Peritonitis

Postoperative PeritonitisAnastomotic Leakage1 more

Surgical management results for 114 patients with postoperative peritonitis due to small-bowel perforations, necrosis, and anastomotic leakage were comparatively analyzed. Using the APACHE-II (Acute Physiology, Age, Chronic Health Evaluation) and MPI (Mannheim Peritonitis Index) scoring systems, different surgical approaches were examined in three patient groups (primary anastomosis, delayed anastomosis, and enterostomy).
