To document and describe the clinical, microbiological, and pharmacoeconomic outcomes of two hundred patients who failed to respond to outpatient macrolide or beta-lactam therapy. Evaluable patients must have a positive culture obtained after they failed their initial macrolide or beta-lactam. The isolated pathogen must have a known MIC to the antibiotic class they failed to respond to (i.e. macrolide or b-lactam). The isolate must be available to be sent to the central laboratory for MIC testing
Ages Eligible for Study: | up to 95 Years |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients who have failed to respond to at least three (ABECB and CAP) or five (AMS/ABRS/AECRS) days of macrolide or b-lactam therapy meeting all of the protocol criteria for acute bacterial exacerbations on chronic bronchitis(ABECB), community acquired pneumonia(CAP) and acute maxillary sinusitis(AMS) will be eligible for enrollment. All patients, whether enrolled retrospectively or concurrently, must have a positive culture. The pathogenic bacteria must be identified by a local laboratory and have a known susceptibility to the antibiotic class the patient failed to respond to (i.e. macrolide or b-lactam). The isolate must be sent to the Study Coordinating Center for precise MIC determination.
