NCT00462579
It has been demonstrated that panresistant strains of Acinetobacter species may be selected by antibiotic use \[4\], may be transmitted from person to person \[5\], and may be passed via environmental contamination \[6\]. Surveillance for panresistant Acinetobacter species should be a priority, given the lack of antibiotic options for the treatment of these infections. There are currently no data on the antibiotic susceptibility of Acinetobacter species or on the rates of panresistant organisms. The elucidation of potential risk factors for resistant strains of Acinetobacter is therefore an important task, and the use of alternative antibiotics should be considered in ICUs where these strains are endemic.
NCT00366223
The purpose of this study is to determine the changing patterns of infection caused by Candida species in urban medical centers and its influence on patient outcomes. A retrospective cohort study design will be employed with the main outcome measure being hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes including microbiologic clearance of the infection, duration of hospitalization, and the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay will also be assessed.
NCT00573521
This research will be conducted to determine whether risk factors exist for piperacillin/tazobactam resistance in ESBL organisms.
NCT02392234
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VX-661 in combination with ivacaftor (IVA, VX-770) and IVA monotherapy in participants with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for F508del-CFTR allele and a second allele with a CFTR mutation predicted to have residual function.
