Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 100 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: hospital-acquired pneumonia adult patients with qualified evidence of responsible pathogen in China

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years old.
  • Meets the clinical diagnostic criteria for HAP in the 2018 HAP/VAP guidelines. Chest X-ray or CT shows new or progressive infiltrative shadows, consolidation shadows, or ground glass shadows, combined with 2 or more of the following 3 clinical symptoms, to establish a clinical diagnosis: 1) Fever, body temperature>38 ℃; 2) Purulent airway secretions; 3) Peripheral blood white blood cell count >10 × 10^9/L or <4 × 10^9/L.
  • Having qualified evidence of responsible pathogen. On the basis of clinical diagnosis, one of the following conditions should be met simultaneously: 1) Qualified lower respiratory tract secretions (neutrophil count >25/low magnification field, epithelial cell count <10/low magnification field, or a ratio of the two >2.5:1), pathogenic bacteria cultured through bronchoscopy anti pollution brush (PSB), bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), lung tissue or sterile body fluid, and consistent with clinical manifestations; 2) Pathology, cytopathology, or direct microscopic examination of lung tissue specimens showing fungi and evidence of tissue damage; 3) The serum IgM antibodies of atypical pathogens or viruses change from negative to positive, or the titers of specific IgG antibodies in both acute and recovery phases show a 4-fold or more change. During the outbreak of respiratory viruses and with a history of epidemiological contact, respiratory secretions were tested positive for corresponding virus antigens, nucleic acid tests, or virus culture.
  • obtained informed consent

Who cannot join

  • Those who cannot understand and execute the investigation plan.
  • Active pulmonary tuberculosis;
  • Severely immunosuppressed patients: absolute neutrophil count <0.5× 10^9/L, CD4<200/ml.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study on Pathogen Investigation, Risk Factors, and Prognostic Factors Analysis of Hospital Acquired Pneumonia (HAP)

The goal of this prospective and observatory study is to learn about the pathogen, clinical manifestations, prognosis, treatment and antibiotic resistance of bacteria in hospital-acquired pneumonia patients in China.

The main purposes of this study are:

  1. clarify the regional differences and changes over time in the pathogen spectrum and antibiotic resistance rate among HAP patients in China;
  2. build a continuously optimized nationwide HAP pathogen and antibiotic resistance surveillance network;
  3. identify the molecular epidemiology of common pathogens

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hospital-acquired Pneumonia and Antibiotic Resistant Infection, run by Ruijin Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

mortality at day 28 (time frame: 28 days after enrollment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Sep 2023.
