About this study

Official title: Urinary Tract Infection in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Retrospective Observational Study at Outpatient Nephrology Clinics

This study aims to investigate the etiology and associated risk factors for UTI in Egyptian chronic kidney disease patients. In addition, to identify the isolated micro-organisms and their sensitivity patterns for better anticipation of treatment regimen.

Read the detailed description

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are at higher risk of urinary tract infections (UTI), as CKD is a state of chronic inflammation, metabolic disturbance and impaired immunocompetence. Moreover, patient with CKD are usually of advanced age and suffer from other comorbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases, which also add to their risk of infection.

UTI comprises heterogeneous conditions ranging from mild cystitis, easily treated with oral antibiotics, to life-threatening sepsis and multiple organ failure.

There is scarce information about risk factors of recurrence of UTI and infection with multidrug-resistant organisms in the Egyptian population.

What participants receive

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

  • Patients with urinary tract infection and chronic kidney diseaseOther

    The data that will be collected from the electronic patient records at the clinics through a google form will include sociodemographic (age, sex, weight and occupation), comorbidities (e.g., HTN, DM), medications used, renal functions (serum creatinine, and CKD stage calculated by 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation), and in case of positive urine culture (type of microorganism and antibiogram).

What is being measured

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

  1. prevalence of UTI in CKD patients

    percentage of UTI in CKD patients

    Measured: records will be retrospectively screened from January 2019 till September 2022

  2. isolated microorganisms causing UTI in CKD patients

    isolated microorganisms in cultures causing UTI in CKD patients

    Measured: records will be retrospectively screened from January 2019 till September 2022

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. sensitivity pattern of urine cultures in CKD

    describe sensitivity pattern of urine cultures in CKD

    Measured: records will be retrospectively screened from January 2019 till September 2022

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urinary Tract Infections and Chronic Kidney Diseases, run by Alexandria University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 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 18 Jun 2024. 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 Egypt. 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 UTI in CKD patients (time frame: records will be retrospectively screened from January 2019 till September 2022). The study lists 2 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 NCT05674942, which also lists 3 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 18 Jun 2024.
