The Combined Antibiotic Therapy for Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae

Early Phase 1
Conditions
Antibiotic Resistant Infection
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03950544
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai 10th People's Hospital
Brief Summary

The infection of carbapenem resistant klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is increasingly serious.Based on the early experimental basis and relevant research background,this study intends to separate and purify the CRKP from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of the clinical patients.Designed by checkerboard assay and time-kill assay(TKA),this study can explore the best combination therapy based on carbapenems.

Detailed Description

1. Collect the BALF from patients diagnosed with CRKP infection in surgical intensive care unit(SICU)of Shanghai 10th people's hospital.

2. Separate and purify the BALF. Divide each CRKP into four treatment groups based on meropenem.

3.1 By checkerboard method and microdilution broth method,get the minimal inhibitory concentration (MICS) of two antibiotics,then calculate the fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index according to MIC results.

3.2 Observe the effect of two antibiotics on the growth of CRKP by TKA.

4.By the above two invitro experiments, analyze the data of the experimental results and get the best combination therapy based on carbapenems.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI)24hours-36hours

By checkerboard method and microdilution broth method,get the minimal inhibitory concentration (MICS) of two antibiotics,then calculate the fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index according to MIC results.

Evaluation index:

FIC=0.5 , coordinating effect. 0.5 \< FIC \<1, adding effect;

1 \< FIC \<2, irrelevant.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the time-kill assay (TKA)36hours-48hours

According to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute,observe the changes of bacterial growth over time after different combination therapy.
