NCT00449735

Brief Summary

This proposed study aims to document the risk factors for quinolone resistance in bloodstream isolates of E. coli. Additionally, the adequacy of empiric antibiotic therapy for E. coli bloodstream infections will be assessed. Finally, outcome will be recorded - this is all-cause mortality at 28 days from the time of the first positive blood culture. Hypothesis: Ciprofloxacin resistant strains are associated with admission from nursing home and with prior quinolone use.

E coli positive cultures

You may qualify if:

  • Clinical information is collected by chart review of "case" and "control" patients.
  • A "case A" patient is defined as follows:
  • One or more blood cultures are positive for E. coli. The organism is ciprofloxacin resistant.
  • A "case B" patient is defined as follows:
  • One or more blood cultures are positive for E. coli. The organism is ciprofloxacin susceptible. Additionally, 4 controls who are in hospital at the same time as cases will be selected for each case.
