Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic dosage with amoxicillin (AMX), amoxicillin-clavulanate (AMX-CLV), and a combination of amoxicillin-clavulanate and a chlorhexidine mouthwash (AMX-CLV-CHX) in the prevention of bacteremia following dental extractions. The study hypothesis is that an antimicrobial regimen with amoxicillin-clavulanate will show higher effectiveness in reducing the prevalence and duration of bacteremia following dental extractions, than that achieved with the classical amoxicillin regimen.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of participants receiving a prophylactic dosage with amoxicillin-clavulanate i.v. with bacteremia following dental extractions
Percentage of participants receiving a prophylactic dosage with amoxicillin-clavulanate i.v. with bacteremia confirmed by microbiological analysis at 30 seconds, 15 minutes and 1 hour after the final dental extraction
Changes from baseline in prevalence of bacteremia at 30 seconds, 15 minutes and 1 hour after the final dental extraction
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Number of participants receiving a prophylactic dosage with amoxicillin i.v. (following the American Heart Association´s guidelines) with bacteremia after dental extractions
Changes from baseline in prevalence of bacteremia at 30 seconds, 15 minutes and 1 hour after the final dental extraction
Other Outcomes (1)
Number of control participants with bacteremia following dental extractions under general anesthesia
Changes from baseline in prevalence of bacteremia at 30 seconds, 15 minutes and 1 hour after the final dental extraction
Study Arms (5)
Control
NO INTERVENTIONReceiving no prophylaxis
Amoxicillin
ACTIVE COMPARATORReceiving 2 g Amoxicillin intravenously before any dental manipulation and following endotracheal intubation
Amoxicillin-Potassium Clavulanate
EXPERIMENTALReceiving 1000/200mg Amoxicillin-Potassium Clavulanate i.v. before any dental manipulation and following endotracheal intubation
Chlorhexidine (CHX)
ACTIVE COMPARATORReceiving a single 0.2% Chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash for 30 seconds before any dental manipulation and following endotracheal intubation
Amoxicillin-Potassium Clavulanate-CHX
EXPERIMENTALReceiving 1000/200mg Amoxicillin-Potassium Clavulanate i.v. and a single 0.2% Chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash for 30 seconds before any dental manipulation and following endotracheal intubation
Interventions
