The INSPIRE-ASP UTI Trial

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
Registration Number
NCT03697096
Lead Sponsor
Harvard Pilgrim Health Care
Brief Summary

The INSPIRE-ASP UTI trial is a cluster-randomized controlled trial of HCA hospitals comparing routine empiric antibiotic stewardship practices with real-time precision medicine computerized physician order entry smart prompts providing the probability that a non-critically ill adult admitted with UTI is infected with a resistant pathogen.

Note: that enrolled "subjects" represents 59 individual HCA hospitals that have been randomized.

Note: unit of randomization is the hospital, however the CPOE alert intervention will calculate risk estimates for adults age >=18 admitted to non-ICU wards and who are ordered to receive extended-spectrum antibiotics for UTI. Prisoners were excluded from prompts and analysis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Extended-Spectrum Days Of Antibacterial Therapy (ES-DOT) Per Empiric DayFirst 3 days of hospitalization for each patient during 15-month intervention period

The number of different extended-spectrum antibacterials received by the patient each empiric day-of-therapy (outcome measure unit), averaged over the empiric days (the first 3 days of hospitalization), summed across all participants. Note that Days-of-Therapy unit is a standardized national measure for antibacterial use in hospitals. For clarity the calculation is as follows: we define a DOT for a particular ES antibiotic as a day in which any number of doses of that antibiotic is given. Different ES antibiotics are summed across the empiric days for each patient admission, then divided by the empiric days for that patient-admission to determine each admission's DOT per at-risk day. If an admission is less than 3 days, only the number of days the patient is admitted will contribute to the numerator and denominator.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Vancomycin Days of Antibacterial Therapy Per Empiric DayFirst 3 days of hospitalization for each patient during 15-month intervention period

The number of days that Vancomycin is received by the patient averaged over the empiric days (the first 3 days of hospitalization), summed across all participants. Note that Days-of-Therapy unit is a standardized national measure for antibacterial use in hospitals. For clarity the calculation is as follows: we define a DOT for a particular ES antibiotic as a day in which any number of doses of that antibiotic is given. Different ES antibiotics are summed across the empiric days for each patient admission, then divided by the empiric days for that patient-admission to determine each admission's DOT per at-risk day. If an admission is less than 3 days, only the number of days the patient is admitted will contribute to the numerator and denominator.

Antipseudomonal Antibiotic Days Of Therapy (ES-DOT) Per Empiric DayFirst 3 days of hospitalization for each patient during 15-month intervention period

The number of different antipseudomonals received by the patient each empiric day of therapy, averaged over the empiric days (the first 3 days of hospitalization), summed across all participants. Note that Days-of-Therapy unit is a standardized national measure for antibacterial use in hospitals. For clarity the calculation is as follows: we define a DOT for a particular ES antibiotic as a day in which any number of doses of that antibiotic is given. Different ES antibiotics are summed across the empiric days for each patient admission, then divided by the empiric days for that patient-admission to determine each admission's DOT per at-risk day. If an admission is less than 3 days, only the number of days the patient is admitted will contribute to the numerator and denominator.
