Other: Any intervention
Registration Number
NCT04671290
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Annecy Genevois
Brief Summary

To assess the efficacy of temocillin compared to carbapenems for the management of ESBL-E UTI.

Detailed Description

Adults with a definite diagnosis of ESBL-E UTI between January-2015 and October-2019 were enrolled in a multicenter retrospective case-control study. Cases were treated with temocillin ≥50% of the effective antibiotic therapy duration. Control exclusively received carbapenem over the effective antibiotic therapy duration.
