Trial summary

Between 2013-2014, our study network of U.S. emergency departments, EMERGEncy ID NET, found that the rate of fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli was 11.7% among all patients, 6.3% in uncomplicated and 19.9% in complicated. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients presenting to the 11 U.S. emergency departments involved in the EMERGEncy ID NET study with a urinary tract infection requiring hospital admission. The sites are: Bellevue Hospital Center, New York; Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA; Hennepin County Medical Center, Minneapolis; Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Baltimore; Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, Philadelphia; Maricopa Medical Center, Phoenix; Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland; Olive View-University of California at Los Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles; University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque; University of Mississippi Medical Center, Jackson; University of Missouri-Kansas City, Kansas City.

Who may be able to join

  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years;
  • Admitted to the hospital through the ED;
  • Primary reason for admission is treatment of UTI with or without sepsis (i.e., ED diagnosis of UTI and/or sepsis); and
  • Provide verbal or written consent to participate in the study or if patient is unable to provide consent (e.g., altered mental status), consent obtained from a legal authorized representative.

Who cannot join

  • patients will be later excluded if :
  • they are unable to provide a urine specimen for culture; or
  • their urine culture yields no growth or is contaminated (see definition of positive urine culture below). Note: If participant's urine culture is contaminated but their blood culture is positive for a uropathogen, they will not be excluded.

About this study

Official title: Prevalence of Extended Spectrum β-lactamase and Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria in Patients With Urinary Tract Infection and Urosepsis Admitted Through Emergency Departments in the United States

Between 2013-2014, our study network of U.S. emergency departments, EMERGEncy ID NET, found that the rate of fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli was 11.7% among all patients, 6.3% in uncomplicated and 19.9% in complicated. ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae were found in 7.7% of all cases, 2.6% in uncomplicated and 12.2% in complicated. More recently, Enterobactericeae and gram-negative non fermenting bacteria have started to show resistance to carbapenems (CREs and CR-NF). Patients hospitalized with UTI and urosepsis represent a higher risk population for infections due to multi-drug resistant bacteria and experience serious adverse outcomes, including death. EMERGEncy ID NET will conduct a study to determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing, CREs and CR-NFs among this high risk population of patients admitted for UTI from U.S. emergency departments.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • urine culture and susceptibility testingOther

    All patients will have a urine culture and susceptibility test ordered per standard care. Results of tests will identify which patients have antimicrobial-resistant organisms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE)

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Prevalence of carbapenem-resistant non fermenting gram negative bacteria

    Measured: 2 years

Individual data sharing
Yes: Final research data will be shared with interested parties affiliated with research organizations, local and U.S. state health departments, and universities, who are interested in using the data for research purposes. Interested parties must submit a short description of how they plan to use the data to the Principal Investigator for approval. A data-sharing agreement will be required containing conditions for data use, including (1): a commitment to using the data only for research purposes; (2) a commitment to securing the data using appropriate computer technology; and (3) a commitment to destroy or return the data after analyses are completed. Upon approval, the database will be shared with the requestor. All shared final research databases will not contain direct or indirect personal identifiers, and subjects will only be discernible by unique study identification numbers. A file containing a data dictionary with descriptions of all database fields will be included.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urinary Tract Infections and Urosepsis, run by Olive View-UCLA Education & Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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 Jul 2021. 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 United States. 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?

Prevalence of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03346603, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Jul 2021.
