Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Abundance of pathogen proteins

    Determine the abundance of pathogen proteins in the samples and in in vitro cultures of the same pathogen strains using cutting-edge ultra-sensitive proteomics approaches (Parallel reaction monitoring, PRM, Sequential Windowed Acquisition of All Theoretical Fragment Ion Mass Spectra, SWATH-MS). Data will be analyzed using dedicated mass spectrometry and proteomics packages using parametric and non-parametric statistics (false discovery rate determination based on decoy databases; t-tests of log-transformed abundance data with Benjamin-Hochberg corrections for multiple testing, normal distribution of the data will be evaluated by Kolmogorov-Smirnov test).

    once during study (February 2018 until June 2020) but no fixed timepoint

Study Population

All in ICU-patients and REHAB-Basel patients with residual material from tracheal or urinary samples taken for routine diagnostics of patients with suspected bacterial infection will be included.

You may qualify if:

  • confirmed infection of lung or urine by one or several members of a defined set of bacterial pathogens (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Serratia marcescens, Enterobacter spp., Acinetobacter baumannii, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumonia

You may not qualify if:

  • Proof of a refusal to the general research consent
  • No detected bacteria
