Recruiting
Conditions
Bacterial Infections
Registration Number
NCT05762094
Lead Sponsor
The Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School
Brief Summary

Patients may benefit from the personalized carbapenem dosing strategy based on pharmacokinetics. The objective of this study is to retrospectively review and analyze the clinical outcomes of patients with different dosing strategy.

Detailed Description

Rational use of carbapenem is closely associated with the clinical outcome of patients with infections. Serum concentration of carbapenem varies from different populations. The objective of this study is to describe the clinical outcome of patients with infection treated by carbapenem in China, regarding diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. It is a single-center, retrospective, descriptive study. Inclusion criteria are an age ≥ 18, diagnosed as bacteria infection and serum concentration must be determined during therapy. Data concerning clinical presentation, biological samples, treatment and follow-up will be assessed. A descriptive analysis will be performed.

Safety outcome measuresJanuary 2018-December 2021

Safety outcome measures including nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity and other adverse events related to the antibiotic treatment of carbapenems

Proportion of patients reach clinical response at end of treatmentJanuary 2018-December 2021

By definition, a successful clinical response means resolution of clinically significant signs and symptoms(defined as any criteria of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, body temperature over 38℃ or below 36℃, blood white cell count more than 12\*10\^9/L or less than 4\*10\^9/L, respiratory rate faster than 20 times per minute and heart rate higher than 90 beats per minute) or partial resolution of clinically significant signs and symptoms

Proportion of patients reach clinical response at day 4 of treatmentJanuary 2018-December 2021

By definition, a successful clinical response means resolution of clinically significant signs and symptoms(defined as any criteria of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, body temperature over 38℃ or below 36℃, blood white cell count more than 12\*10\^9/L or less than 4\*10\^9/L, respiratory rate faster than 20 times per minute and heart rate higher than 90 beats per minute) or partial resolution of clinically significant signs and symptoms

Daily Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score changeJanuary 2018-December 2021

Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (Range from 0-24), lower score means a better outcome. Increase of 2 points within 48 hours means the presence of sepsis.
