Study summary

The general rules of antibiotic prophylaxis in surgery or interventional medicine include the choice of an antibiotic active on the bacteria most frequently encountered in surgical site infections. This antibiotic must cover, the bacteria present on the skin and recognized as responsible for surgical site infections.

The aim of this study is to identify bacteria found in skin flora in the inguinal region of patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). Flora found will allow to evaluate the impact of skin preparation and antibiotic prophylaxis protocols as they are currently practiced.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Enterococci prevalence

    Proportion of patients with Enterococcus feacalis and other Enterococci in inguinal flora before TAVI

    Time frame: At Day 0 at TAVI intervention time (preoperative)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Skin flora of the groin

    Bacteria profile of inguinal skin

    Time frame: At Day 0 at TAVI intervention time (preoperative) before skin disinfection

  2. Skin flora of the groin

    Bacteria profile of inguinal skin

    Time frame: At Day 0 at TAVI intervention time (preoperative) after skin disinfection

  3. Infectious events

    Occurrence of infective endocarditis or other infectious adverse events

    Time frame: From day of TAVI to 1 year after intervention

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2021 to primary completion in Feb 2022, 8 months.

Of 47 non-industry observational studies under Aortic Valve Disease, half reached primary completion within 49 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 23 and three quarters within 147. This study's 8 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 56 studies reached it within 49 months; a quarter within 23 and three quarters within 97.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 6, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
