Doripenem in the Treatment of Complicated Lower Urinary Tract Infection or Pyelonephritis

Urinary Tract InfectionsPyelonephritis

The purpose of this study is to compare the microbiological cure rate of doripenem versus a comparator antibiotic in the treatment of patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis. The study will also characterize the safety and tolerability of treatment with doripenem in patients with complicated urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis.

Cefpodoxime vs Ciprofloxacin for Acute Cystitis

Urinary Tract Infection

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a very common problem in young healthy women, afflicting approximately one-half of women by their late 20s. One of the most common antibiotics used to treat UTIs is ciprofloxacin, usually for a total of three days. However, increasing resistance to this antibiotic has raised concerns about its overuse for cystitis and generated interest in alternative agents. An alternative antibiotic which is approved for use in UTIs is cefpodoxime. However, there are few studies evaluating the efficacy and tolerance of this compound when given in a 3-day regimen as is commonly used for treatment of UTI. The major purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerance of a 3-day regimen of cefpodoxime versus ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis.

Multifaceted Treatment of Catheter-related Urinary Tract Infection

Spinal Cord InjuryNeurogenic Bladder1 more

The specific objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that a multifaceted approach for treatment for catheter-related urinary tract infection (UTI) in patients with spinal cord injury is effective and feasible. We plan to test the following hypothesis: a multifaceted treatment approach that consists of immediate removal of the indwelling bladder catheter, selecting antibiotics based on the finding from a urine culture that is obtained through the newly inserted catheter, and a 5-day course of systemic antibiotics will effectively treat catheter-related infection that is limited to the lower urinary tract of patients with spinal cord injury.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of doripenem in participants with nosocomial pneumonia (inflammation of the lungs in which the lungs become heavy; pneumonia occurring at least 48 hours after hospital admission), complicated intra-abdominal (in belly) infections and complicated urinary tract infections (bladder infections).

Postoperative Urinary Retention and Urinary Track Infection (UTI) After Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal...

HysterectomyUrinary Retention1 more

With the advent of minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) is currently advocated as an alternative to abdominal hysterectomy. Reported benefits of LAVH in short-term study, when compared with the abdominal hysterectomy, include shorter hospital stays and convalescence, less postoperative pain, lower morbidity. To our best knowledge, no study has been conducted to examine bladder catheterization is associated with PUR and UTI after LAVH. No study has been performed to evaluate the long-term sequelae of PUR after LAVH. In this study, 150 patients undergoing LAVH are randomly assigned to have an indwelling Foley catheter for 0 (n = 50), at 7AM-8AM in the morning of postoperative day 1 (n = 50), at 7AM-8AM in the morning of postoperative day 2 (n = 50) after the procedure by selecting a sealed envelope, which is opened before the operation. The inclusion criteria are uterine fibroids, endometriosis, abnormal bleeding, uterine prolapse and intra-epithelial neoplasia of the cervix grade 3. Patients are excluded if they experienced pelvic reconstructive surgery for pelvic organ prolapse or stress urinary incontinence; if they have bacteriuria and clinical urinary tract symptoms, e.g. dysuria, frequency, urgency and stress incontinence before surgery. After surgery, all patients stay at least 2 days in the hospital. The incidences of febrile morbidity and other postoperative complications are recorded. The outcome is assessed as immediate postoperative urinary tract symptoms, urinary tract bacteriuria (defined as a positive culture > 105 organisms/µl), postoperative fever > 38°C and urinary retention or the inability to pass urine 6 hours after catheter remove. All patients are followed up at 3 months and one year after surgery. To demonstrate quality of life of women after undergo LAVH, a generic instrument of MOS Short Form 36 (SF-36) and two specific instruments for urinary problems, Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ7) and Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI) are asked to answer in all patients before surgery and postoperative follow-up. All data are analyzed by the two-tailed Fisher exact test when appropriate. Correlation coefficients are calculated to determine the associations of preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative factors with the incidence of postoperative urinary retention and positive urine cultures. A value of p < 0.05 is considered statistically significant.

Pharmacokinetics of Benapenem in Subjects With Renal Impairment

Complicated Urinary Tract Infection; Cuti

This is an open-label, multiple center, parallel-group Study to compare the pharmacokinetics and safety of single-dose benapenem (1.0mg) in subjects with mild or moderate Renal Impairment(RI) and healthy subjects. Subjects were enrolled with defined degrees of RI based on eGFR(estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) calculated by MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease)formular as follows: nomal renal function(≥90ml/min/1.73m2 ; N=6); mild RI (60-89mL/min/1.73 m2 ; N=6), moderate RI (30-59 mL/min/1.73m2 ; N=6)
