- Conditions
- To Reduce Duration of Antibiotics Exposure in Patients With COPD Hospitalized in Intensive Care Unit With Pneumonia
- Interventions
- Other: experimental
- Registration Number
- NCT06301841
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Caen
- Brief Summary
Investigators propose to conduct a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, assessing the interests of an antibiotic protocol guided by the combined use of serum procalcitonin (PCT) and a broad-panel respiratory multiplex PCR (mPCR) to reduce duration of antibiotics exposure in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) hospitalized in intensive care unit (ICU) with pneumonia. The primary endpoint is the number of antibiotic-days for the treatment of pneumonia.

Group Intervention Description Intervention experimental In addition to conventional microbiological investigations, a non-invasive or invasive respiratory tract sample is collected as soon as possible and tested with the respiratory broad-panel mPCR (Biofire FilmArray Pneumonia plus Panel de Biomérieux). This test detects 18 bacteria, 9 viruses and 7 antibiotic resistance markers. In addition a procalcitonin assay is performed on day-3 of ICU admission. Antibiotics have to be started as soon as possible after ICU admission and during at less 3 days. At day 3, clinicians have to consider all the early microbiological results (including the respiratory broad-panel mPCR (Biofire FilmArray Pneumonia plus Panel de Biomérieux) and procalcitonin, and subsequently to apply an algorithm of early antibiotics discontinuation or de-escalation.
