About this study

Official title: In Vitro Biofilm Formation and Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns of Bacteria From Surgical Site Infection After Orthopedic Surgery

Detection of bacteria that form biofilm and its sensitivity to antibiotics in patients with surgical site infection after orthopedic surgery.

Read the detailed description

The available number of patients presenting in outpatient clinic or at operating theatre with surgical site infection after orthopedic surgery that include insertion of implant (e.g plates , screws ,wires ,…) will be subjected to full history and examined by physician. Swabs from site of infection will be taken and subjected to the following steps to identify the causative bacteria:

  • Culturing on blood agar, chocolate agar, MacConkey agar and Mannitol salt agar , gram staining and biochemical tests.
  • Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect biofilm formation.
  • Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Orthopedic Surgery, run by Sohag University.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2022. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact principal investigator (01017633218, amiratalaat29@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

detect biofilm formation (time frame: one year). 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 6 Jan 2022.
