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 Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The target study subjects include male and female patients of any age admit at the hospital, and acquired hospital-acquired bacterial infection during hospital stay. We will focus on six key pathogens that were in the WHO global priority list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and are also of clinical importance in resource-limited settings, namely: * Staphylococcus aureus * Enterococcus spp * Escherichia coli * Klebsiella pneumoniae * Pseudomonas aeruginosa * Acinetobacter spp The severity of underlying illness will be assessed using Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score and severity of the infection will be assessed using Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. These score will be reported to the physician whenever appropriate.

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female of any age admit at Sunpasitthiprasong Hospital
  • At least one of the six organisms, which include Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus spp., Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter spp., isolated from clinical specimen >48 hours after admission
  • Acquired Bloodstream infection (BSI), Lower-respiratory tract infection(LRTI), Skin/Soft tissue infection (SSTI), Surgical-site infection (SSI), Urinary tract infection (UTI) or infection at other body sites >48 hours after admit at the hospital

Who cannot join

  • Clinical symptoms of current infection presented ≤48 hours of admission

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Surveillance Study for Outcome and Risk Factors Associated With Antibiotic-resistant Infections Among Patients With Hospital-acquired Infections

This is a prospective surveillance study to estimate excess deaths due to and risk factors associated with antibiotic-resistant infection among patients with hospital-acquired infection (HAI) in a resource-limited setting. We will focus on six pathogenic bacteria that are of clinically important in the hospital.

Read the detailed description

We will first identify patients with pathogenic bacteria isolated from clinical sample collected >48 hours after admission. These patients will then be screened for eligibility criteria. Signed informed consent will be sought from the enrolled patients. The primary outcome is survival status within 28 days since the first specimen culture positive for one of the six organisms of interest. All patients with hospital-acquired infection will be assessed for in-hospital 28-day survival as part of the routine hospital surveillance system. Follow-up to confirm 28-day outcome via telephone call will be performed only if patient signed informed consent and permission is granted. All isolates from positive cultures will be collected and stored securely.

This study will not interfere with standard patient care or routine diagnosis procedure, hence subject will receive no direct medical harm or benefits from being in the study. Researchers of this study will not be involved in the management, care and treatment of study subjects. Patient care will remain under the responsibility of the attending medical staff according to standard practice of care. The study team will work closely with the hospital Infectious Control team to screen and enroll patients as part of the HAI surveillance data system in Sunpasitthiprasong Hospital. This study will be an enhancement of the current HAI surveillance system, which will provide data on 28-day survival status, Charlson Comorbidities Index (CCI) score and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score for each patient and risk factors related to acquiring hospital-acquired infection to the hospital Infectious Control (IC) team.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hospital-acquired Infections, run by University of Oxford at 1 site in Thailand.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 16 Sep 2020. 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 Thailand. 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?

28-day mortality (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT03411538, 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 16 Sep 2020.
