NCT05651464

Brief Summary

The goal of this prospective interventional study is to evaluate the impact of antibiotic prophylaxis on bloodstream infections after liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy. The main questions aims to answer are: • does application of vancomycine prior to ECMO liberation have an impact of bloodstream infections? Participants will get 1 dose of vancomycine I.V. (15-20 mg per kgKG) prior to liberation of ECMO. Researchers will compare this interventional group to a group without antibiotic prophylaxis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Growth of pathogens in blood culture

    Detection of pathogens / blood stream infection

    taken 72 hours after liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy

  • Growth of pathogens in blood culture

    Detection of pathogens / blood stream infection

    taken directly before removal of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Growth of pathogens on cannula tip

    on the day of liberation, cannula tip will be send to institute of microbiology directly after liberation from ECMO

  • laboratory parameters

    6.00 am on the day of liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy

  • laboratory parameters

    24 hours after liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy

  • laboratory parameters

    48 hours after liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy

  • laboratory parameters

    72 hours after liberation of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy
