NCT04326517

Brief Summary

Emphysematous pyelonephritis is a lifethreatening necrotizing infection of the kidney characterized by accumulation of gas in the renal parenchyma and within the surrounding tissues. The aim of the study is to report the outcome of the management of this condition at the investigators institution and to determine the microbiological characteristics, antibiotic resistance patterns, and to analyze factors predicting mortality and intensive care unit admission.

Study Arms (1)

Emphysematous pyelonephritis

This is a single-group cohort study. A sub-classification will be used in order to differentiate patients that did not require intensive care, the ones who admitted to intensive care and mortality.

Procedure: Nephrectomy

Interventions

NephrectomyPROCEDURE

Different therapeutic options are described in literature for emphysematous pyelonephritis. In our center, medical treatment (no invasive procedure), ureteral stent (endourologic procedure), percutaneous drainage (minimally invasive procedure), and nephrectomy are the therapeutic options for this disease.

Also known as: ureteral stent, percutaneous drainage, medical treatment

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Patients with a confirmatory diagnosis using emphysematous pyelonephritis by computed tomography are included, as well as signs and symptoms of upper urinary tract infection and data of systemic inflammatory response. Participants are usually admitted to the emergency room and recruited for analysis during hospitalization.

You may qualify if:

  • Emphysematous pyelonephritis confirmed with computed tomography
  • Systemic inflammatory response
  • Urinary tract infection symptoms
  • Complete medical records
  • Both genders included
  • \>18 years old

You may not qualify if:

  • Other infectious causes
  • Asymptomatic bacteriuria
  • Incomplete medical records
  • Endourologic procedure 3 months before recruitment
