Study summary

Selection of tigecycline in severe sepsis and septic shock patients in empirical antibiotic therapy (Hai Zheng Energy Star ®) combined with piperacillin / tazobactam (tazocin ®) scheme, compared with the classical scheme, evaluate its efficacy, safety index.

Read the detailed description

Tigecycline as representative glycylcycline antibiotics, has wide antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial activity, tigecycline in almost all of the gram positive bacteria and most gram negative bacteria and atypical pathogens, anaerobic bacteria are very good antibacterial activity except Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus. Safety on organ function, in patients with renal insufficiency or in dialysis patients, no dose adjustment is required application of tigecycline, mild to moderate hepatic insufficiency patients do not need to adjust the dose of tigecycline. Piperacillin / tazobactam also is a broad spectrum, potent antibiotics, especially strong bactericidal activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, including resistant enzyme producing gram negative bacilli, in accordance with its pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic characteristics of prolonged infusion time can obtain a stronger bactericidal activity. These two potent drugs have broad antimicrobial spectrum, strong bactericidal activity, and provide for the treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock a new choice in antibiotic selection, to a certain extent reduces the resistance pressure, and have more clinical safety.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Efficacy of treatment between Tigecycline plus tazocin and classic anti infection method

    Two groups of patients were assessed anti infection treatment effect per day. Including: temperature, procalcitonin, blood routine, liver and kidney function, bacteriological evidence, hemodynamics Effects of Haizheng Li Xing ® combined with tazocin ® in clinical treatment is not inferior to the classical antibiotics scheme

    Time frame: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Successful rate between two groups with abnormal renal function and liver function abnormalities which should adjust dose of drugs

    Evaluation of two groups of patients EGDT treatment compliance rate, mortality rate (the success rate of treatment), ICU stay time.

    Time frame: 2 weeks

Other outcomes

  1. Residence time and expenses in ICU

    Patients with ICU residence time and expenses have no difference between the two groups.

    Time frame: 2 weeks
