PipEracillin Tazobactam Versus mERoPENem for Treatment of Bloodstream Infections Caused by Cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (PETERPEN)
Data regarding optimal treatment for extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacteriaceae blood-stream infection are lacking. Observational studies show conflicting results when comparing treatment with combination beta-lactam-beta-lactamase inhibitor and carbapenems. The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of definitive treatment with meropenem vs. piperacillin-tazobactam on the outcome of patients with bacteremia due …
Microbial Cell-free Metagenomic Sequencing for Suspected Infections in Adult Immunocompromised Outpatients
This clinical trial is designed to evaluate if adding the Karius Spectrum™ plasma test to usual care diagnostic tests, compared to usual care testing alone, among immunocompromised participants presenting with suspected infection in the outpatient setting leads to faster infection diagnosis and treatment. Participants will give a blood sample one …
Echocardiography Versus no Echocardiography in S. Aureus Bacteraemia and VIRSTA Score < 3
Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent cause of both healthcare-associated and community-acquired bloodstream infections worldwide. Infective endocarditis (IE) has been detected in 5-17% of cases and is a determinant of poor prognosis. The investigators developed a score (the VIRSTA score) based on patients' characteristics to rule out IE with high …
TDM-optimized Teicoplanin Dosing Versus Standard of Care
Value of TDM for teicoplanin is not well defined. In this single-center low-interventional randomized trial the investigators aim to investigate the superiority of teicoplanin TDM-optimized using Model-Informed-Precision-Dosing (MIPD) of unbound concentrations versus the standard of care (dosing based on antibiotic guidelines) in target attainment.
Study to Evaluate the PK of IV and PO Omadacycline in Children and Adolescents With Suspected or Confirmed Bacterial Infections
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of intravenous or oral omadacycline in children and adolescents with suspected or confirmed bacterial infections.
Impact of Procalcitonin-guided Algorithm on Early Discontinuation of Antibiotic Therapy
In this randomized controlled open-label trial, conducted in 7 French Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Units (ICUs), investigator team hypothesize that the use of a procalcitonin (PCT)-guided algorithm to discontinue antibiotic treatment will decrease antibiotic duration in critically ill children treated for a suspected or proven bacterial infection. Two hundred …
[18F]Fluoropropyl-Trimethoprim ([18F]F-TMP) PET/CT Imaging to Evaluate Biodistribution and Kinetics in Human Subjects
The purpose of this study is to study a radioactive tracer, a type of imaging drug that is injected into the body to see how it is taken up in sites of active infection using an imaging procedure called Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT).
Use of Low-cost Molecular Diagnostic Techniques as a New Surveillance Model for Diseases Preventable by Vaccinations.
Vaccine-preventable disease (VPD) surveillance should be a priority throughout the world. In Italy, however, there is limited attention to the epidemiology of VPDs, with the consequence that their incidence is largely underestimated. Although notification of vaccine-preventable diseases is mandatory, very often the etiologic agents causing VPDs are not identified the …
Parenteral Versus Combined Parenteral With Vancomycin-soaked Graft in ACL Reconstruction
An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is one of the knee joint's most common soft tissue injuries [1]. It is frequently injured in non-contact and some contact competition sports and even during ordinary life activities. With an annual incidence of 68.6 per 100,000 person-years, ACL tears remain a common orthopedic …
Optimization of Beta-lactam Dosing in Critically Ill Patients With Cystatin C (OPTIMIZE-GNI)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the abilities of Cystatin C (CysC) and CysC-based estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) equations to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles of meropenem and cefepime relative to Serum Creatinine (SCR), Serum Creatinine based Equation (SCRE)and iohexol at the population and individual levels in …
