About this study

Official title: Pathobiomes Training in the Care of Water Sources and Dynamics of Water-borne Pathogens Involved in Healthcare Associated Infections

The bacteria live in community and in some cases it is the combination of several microorganisms that facilitates transmission and pathogenicity. The concept of pathobiome follows from this finding. Investigators hypothesize that the microbial community water point is a pathobiome influencing installation and transmission of pathogens associated with care

Read the detailed description

Goals :

Key: To study the impact of bacterial communities on the risk of transmission of waterborne pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa in patients hospitalized from a contaminated water source by this bacterium.

secondary:

  1. Assess the role of communities on installing the water points in P. aeruginosa by comparing contaminated and uncontaminated water sources.
  2. To evaluate the effect of the quality of water and the conditions of use of water points network on the composition of bacterial communities associated or not with P. aeruginosa.

Experimental Study conducted from 6 points of water, contaminated deliberately experimental backs onto the project to assess conventional and alternative measures decontamination network and water points

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    The presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa will be made from a buccal swab in all patients admitted to the hospital entrance.

    Mark of Pseudomonas aeruginosa will be done with and without trypticase soy broth enrichment and isolation on selective agar cetrimide Pseudomonas aeruginosa . The enrichment will detect a port at very low inoculum knowing that the purpose of the analysis is to detect passing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from the environment to the patient regardless of the associated infectivity. The identification of certainty will be carried out by MALDI-TOF. If several morphotypes are visualized on agar Cetrimide they will all be identified and kept under custody broth at -20 ° C.

    Measured: Entrance hospitalization (Day 1)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Presence of infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    The presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa will be made from a buccal swab in all patients exit hospitalization.

    Mark of Pseudomonas aeruginosa will be done with and without trypticase soy broth enrichment and isolation on selective agar cetrimide Pseudomonas aeruginosa . The enrichment will detect a port at very low inoculum knowing that the purpose of the analysis is to detect passing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from the environment to the patient regardless of the associated infectivity. The identification of certainty will be carried out by MALDI-TOF. If several morphotypes are visualized on agar Cetrimide they will all be identified and kept under custody broth at -20 ° C.

    Measured: Exit hospitalization (Day 10)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing mouth swab in people with Otorhinolaryngologic Diseases, run by University Hospital, Montpellier.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 31 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (time frame: Entrance hospitalization (Day 1)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02751658, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 31 Jul 2019.
