The purpose of the study is to test whether a centre-wide policy of incremental antibiotic therapy will reduce arrhythmia device infection in patients undergoing arrhythmia device procedures compared to a policy of conventional antibiotic…
Primary Objective: To assess whether early postoperative AED withdrawal improves cognitive function compared to late withdrawal.Secondary objectives: * To confirm safety of earlier AED withdrawal; we will assess eventual seizure freedom, seizure…
To provide high level of evidence that omitting perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis does not increase the postoperative infection rate, in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Objective: 1) to assess whether adequate serum and interstitial fluid levels of cefazolin are reached during surgery in obese and non-obese patients, 2) to develop a population pharmacokinetic model for cefazolin which allows the characterization of…
In a previous prospective study(4), we investigated in detail the effect of OCs on LTG clearance. However, LTG is frequently used in combination therapy. This raises the question as to what extent and how co-medication with other anti-epileptic…
The hypothesis is that a switch from intravenous to oral antimicrobial therapy is non-inferior to standard intravenous therapy in patients with low-risk SAB. Therefore, the primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate, that oral switch therapy (…
The aim of this multicenter open-label, randomized controlled trial is to investigate the superiority of 5 days (extended) versus a single dose of cefazolin prophylaxis in revision arthroplasty of the hip and knee.
The aim of this exploratory (pilot) study is 1) To study the effect of tVNS with high-resolution 7-Tesla (7T) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and concomitant autonomic monitoring by cardiac and respiratory waveform analytics; 2) To…
To determine whether 4 weeks of total antibiotic treatment duration is non-inferior to 6 weeks in patients with complicated SAB who have responded well to the initial treatment.
The primary objective is to determine the penetration of cefazolin and clindamycin in synovial fluid and bone tissue related to the serum concentration in subjects undergoing reimplantation of the hip.
Transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation (taVNS) has been recently shown to have analgesic potential in patients with chronic functional abdominal (visceral) pain. Functional abdominal pain, as commonly seen in conditions such as irritable…
