NCT04633317

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of aerosolized colistin on to ventilated patients with carbapenem-resistant gram negative bacteria pneumonia. We hypothesize that adjunct aerosolized colistin, which achieve high drug concentrations in the airway, would more effectively treat the penumbra.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical pulmonary infection score

    The clinical pulmonary infection score calculated on the basis of points assigned for various signs and symptoms of pneumonia (eg, fever and extent of oxygenation impairment

    7-10 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Ventilator pressure control level

    7-10 days

Study Arms (2)

Group A Regimen

Randomized 80 subjects diagnosed with pneumonia of carbapenem-resistant gram negative bacteria will received inhaled colistimethate sodium generated by a pneumatic nebulizer or a vibrating mesh nebulizer every 12 hours for 7-10 days

Device: A pneumatic nebulizerDevice: A vibrating mesh nebulizer

Group B Regimen

NO INTERVENTION

Randomized 40 subjects diagnosed with pneumonia of carbapenem-resistant gram negative bacteria will received inhaled colistimethate sodium intravenous every 12 hours for 7-10 days

Interventions

Inhaled colistimethate sodium generated by a pneumatic nebulizer
