Trial summary

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main pathogen of nosocomial respiratory infections. Its increasing resistance to antibiotics requires the development of new strategies for prevention and control, demanding a better understanding of the modes of transmission and evolutionary dynamics of this bacteria.

About this study

Official title: Impact of the Contamination Mode on the Clinical Evolution During Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Ventilator Acquired Pneumonia

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main pathogen of nosocomial respiratory infections. Its increasing resistance to antibiotics requires the development of new strategies for prevention and control, demanding a better understanding of the modes of transmission and evolutionary dynamics of this bacteria. In patients under invasive mechanical ventilation, the main mode of contamination by Pseudomonas remains debated, with 3 modes of contamination (endogenous, crossed transmission between patients, or environmental origin) of varying importance, mainly depending on the endemic situation of the place of study.

The emergence of new genotyping technologies (DiversiLab) can now facilitate studies of molecular epidemiology. Thanks to the multidisciplinary collaboration and innovative techniques, the investigators wish to study the impact of the mode of contamination on the outcome of ICU patients, intubated and ventilated for more than 72 hours.

Read the detailed description

The presence of environmental reservoirs can cause infections and multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa colonization with P. aeruginosa is itself a prognostic factor, but the impact of the route of infection on the evolution of the history and future of the infectious patient is not established.

A second factor that may influence the evolution infectious is the degree of genetic heterogeneity of the bacterial population. Multiple exposure pathways could also influence the genetic diversity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The occurrence of unfavorable patient's outcome, depending on the mode of contamination, such as persistence, relapse or superinfection of the airways at Day 7, and mortality at Day 28

    Measured: From day 3 of intubation until the end of mechanical ventilation (an average of 28 days).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of different clones of P. aeruginosa found in each sample analyzed for the same patient at diagnosis of colonization and VAP.

    Samples of infected patients are analyzed once a week, strains are considered from different clones if their genetic homology rate is below 97%

    Measured: From day 3 of intubation until the end of mechanical ventilation (an average of 28 days).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and Ventilation Acquired Pneumonia, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The occurrence of unfavorable patient's outcome, depending on the mode of contamination, such as persistence, relapse or superinfection of the airways at Day 7, and mortality at Day 28 (time frame: From day 3 of intubation until the end of mechanical ventilation (an average of 28 days).). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Nov 2022.
