Trial summary

Currently, recommendations for antibiotic testing (ATS) in adult intensive care have been published. The 2018 SFAR and the Abdul- Aziz et al expert conference recommend routine testing for β-lactams, aminoglycosides, linezolid, and vancomycin and provide plasma concentration goals.

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 Up to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: The aim of the research is to evaluate the adequacy of antibiotic therapy in children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit at the University Hospital of La Réunion. The study population is intended to be exhaustive and will include all subjects affiliated to the Social Security who meet the eligibility criteria.

Who may be able to join

  • Any child hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit of the CHU Nord de La Réunion,
  • Age is less than 18 years,
  • Having started a curative antibiotic therapy by β-lactam, linezolid, vancomycin or aminosides.
  • For whom a non-opposition has been collected orally from both or one of the child's legal guardians and from the child himself (if applicable),
  • Covered by Social Security.

Who cannot join

  • -Patients on prophylactic antibiotic therapy

About this study

Currently, recommendations for antibiotic testing (ATS) in adult intensive care have been published. The 2018 SFAR and the Abdul- Aziz et al expert conference recommend routine testing for β-lactams, aminoglycosides, linezolid, and vancomycin and provide plasma concentration goals. No recommendations have been made for the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) population. However, several articles report suboptimal plasma concentrations for the most frequently used antibiotics in PICU. The University Hospital of Reunion is the reference center for the western region of the Indian Ocean. This region presents a large mixed population due to the migratory flow, as well as a specific bacterial ecology. This suggests that the data already collected on antibiotic dosage in other European studies may not be fully extrapolated to Reunion Island.

It is in this context that we will study the plasma concentration of antibiotics for all children who received the most commonly used antibiotics (β-lactams, linezolid, vancomycin, and aminoglycosides) during their hospitalization in PICU.

Being tested
Antibiotics Dosing

What participants receive

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

  • Antibiotics DosingOther

    Dosing concerns the main antibiotics used in the unit: b-lactams, linezolid, vancomycin and aminosides

What is being measured

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

  1. The occurrence of at least one "underdosing" event of one of the Antibiotics used in a patient included during his or her hospitalization in pediatrics intensive care unit (PICU)

    Underdosing is defined as a measurement of plasma concentration below the optimal therapeutic concentration (OTC)

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intensive Care Units, Pediatric, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Réunion at 1 site in Reunion.

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 5 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 29 Apr 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 Reunion. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lise PEIPOCH, MD (+262 262 90 63 90, lise.peipoch@chu-reunion.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The occurrence of at least one "underdosing" event of one of the Antibiotics used in a patient included during his or her hospitalization in pediatrics intensive care unit (PICU) (time frame: 2 months). 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 29 Apr 2022.
