Smart antibiotic selection for hospital infections
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a computer program that helps doctors choose the best antibiotic sooner for infections like sepsis, pneumonia, or urinary tract infections in hospital wards. It may lead to faster, more effective treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You are a patient in the nephrology, oncology, or intensive care unit (ICU).
- You have been diagnosed with sepsis, pneumonia, or a urinary tract infection (UTI).
- Your doctor has prescribed an antibiotic to treat the infection.
- You do not have a beta-lactam allergy (a common class of antibiotics).

This study tests different antibiotic combinations for severe infections caused by hard-to-treat Gram-negative bacteria (like Pseudomonas or Acinetobacter). The goal is to find the best treatment for bloodstream infections or pneumonia that started in the hospital.
This trial checks if a faster test to find the best antibiotic for a bloodstream infection can improve treatment and outcomes. If you have a confirmed bloodstream infection, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a computer tool to help doctors choose the right antibiotic for sepsis early on. It may help improve treatment by providing personalized recommendations based on your condition.
This study tests a new computer program that helps doctors find serious infections (sepsis and bacteremia) earlier in ICU patients. If you join, the program will analyze your health data to see if it can better predict these infections, which could help you get faster treatment.
This trial tests whether a machine learning model can help doctors decide when to order blood cultures for patients in the emergency department. It aims to reduce unnecessary tests while still catching infections.
This study tests a computer system meant to help doctors recognize and manage sepsis (a serious body-wide response to infection) when people come to the emergency department or are admitted to the hospital. If you’re evaluated in a hospital setting for possible sepsis, you may be included to help improve care decisions.
