About this trial

Study to comparing conventrional antibiotic strategies versus regimens guided by epidemiological surveillance in infected patients with cirrhosis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Cirrhotic patients with acute decompensation aged ≥18 years.

Proven or suspected bacterial infection requiring antibiotic therapy (diagnosis will be established according to local guidelines, Appendix 1).

Signed informed consent or consent given by their legal representatives or close relatives.

Disqualifiers

Bacterial infection lasting for > 48 hours.

Infection in a critically ill cirrhotic patient (ICU admission). In this population, epidemiological surveillance is standard clinical practice.

MDR colonization or infection in the last month.

Evidence of current locally advanced or metastatic malignancy (patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within the Milan criteria and non-melanocytic skin cancer can be included).

Measured by the appearance of new colonizations and/or infections by MDROs.

Time frame
28 days

Secondary outcomes

1

Probability of antibiotic resistance development during hospitalization in both treatment arms.

Measured by the appearance of new colonizations and/or infections by MDROs.

Time frame
During hospitalization (until discharge), assessed up to day 28.
2

Rate of antibiotic resistance development during hospitalization in both treatment arms.

Measured by the appearance of new colonizations and/or infections by MDROs.

Time frame

Time frame
During hospitalization (until discharge), assessed up to day 28 and at 28 days.
4

Probability of MDRO colonization during hospitalization and at 28 days in both treatment arms.

Measured by the appearance of new colonications by MDROs.
