Molecular Culture for the Diagnosis of Pediatric Sepsis
Babies and children have an increased risk of getting an infection with a bacteria in the bloodstream (sepsis). It is often difficult for the doctor to determine whether a child has an infection of the bloodstream, because the symptoms are often unclear and can also occur in children who are …
Towards Novel BIOmarkers to Diagnose SEPsis on the Emergency Room
Objectives To compare the immune response of patients with or without sepsis presenting to the ED with a(n) (suspected) infection. To determine immune response aberrations that are associated with an increased risk of developing sepsis in patients presenting to the ED with a(n) (suspected) infection without sepsis. To determine the …
Clinical Microbial Species & Antibiotic Resistance ID in ED Patients Presenting With Infection - is Rapid ID Possible & Accurate?
The aim of this project is to test the utility of The Gene Z device (as of 2018 Gene Z no longer being used) and other rapid identification techniques that the investigators have developed in the lab on clinically obtained bodily fluid samples taken from patients with suspected infection or …
Emergency PWAS in Respiratory Infectious Disease
Develop an emergency PanorOmics Wide Association Study (ePWAS) for the early, rapid biological and pathophysiological characterisation of known and novel Infectious Diseases in adult patients presenting to emergency departments with suspected, acute, community-acquired respiratory infectious disease (scaRID). Phase 1 Develop an ED-ID biobank (named ePWAS-RID). Phase 2 Targeted research for …
Fosfomycin i.v. for Treatment of Severely Infected Patients
The purpose of this European, multicentric, prospective, non-interventional study is to document and evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment of severely infected patients with intravenously administered fosfomycin, including patients with osteomyelitis, complicated urinary tract infection, nosocomial lower respiratory tract infection, bacterial meningitis/central nervous system infection, bacteraemia/sepsis, skin and …
Lebanese Interhospital Pneumococcal Surveillance Program
Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a bacterium that causes severe infections in children and adults such as meningitis, pneumonia, and blood stream infection. There are many types of these bacteria defined by the type of sugar coat that they have. These are classified as serotypes. There are common serotypes that cause …
Prospective Data Bank Creation to Study Vaginal Conditions
The purpose of this study is to identify and elucidate the pattern and perhaps role of atypical proteins, cytokines and vaginal microbial flora in the pathogenic mechanisms involved in the development of vulvodynia, recurrent fungal and bacterial vaginosis and preterm labor.
Antibiotic Dosing in Geriatric Patients at the Emergency Department
In this pilot study, we will investigate whether - with the current dosing regimens, used in the Ghent University Hospital - pharmacodynamic targets regarding beta-lactam antibiotics (more specific Amoxicilline-Clavulanate, Piperacillin-Tazobactam and Temocillin) are attained in frail patients admitted to the geriatric department.
Monotherapy vs Combination Therapy for Bone Infections Caused by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
This study looks at how well one antibiotic (monotherapy) works compared to two antibiotics (combination therapy) in treating bone infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It includes 300 adult patients who had this type of infection confirmed by lab tests and medical imaging. The goal is to find out if using …
Use of Fosfomycin in the Treatment of Bacterial Infections
Fosfomycin is an antibiotic discovered since 1969. Disodium fosfomycin, for intravenous use (C3H5Na2O4P) is a bactericidal antibiotic, available in Italy since 2019 (AIFA approval). It works by blocking the enzyme UDP-N-acetylglucosamine enolpyruvil transferase, inhibiting the synthesis of peptidoglycan. It binds poorly to plasma proteins and is distributed very well in …
