Spanish Bacteriemia Cohort 2016: Epidemiology, Clinical Management and Prognosis Factors (PRO-BAC)

Spanish Cohort of Bacteriemias 2016: Epidemiology, Clinical Management and Prognostic Factors at Diagnosis.

Bacteremia

The Hypothesis of the study are the followings:

  • To demonstrate relevant epidemiologic and clinical changes with potentially impact in the management and prognosis of the patients with bacteremia.
  • Since the diagnosis and management is heterogeneous between centers, we could identify a scenario to improve.
  • To identify quality indicators in the management of bacteremia.
  • To demonstrate that some interventions made by Bacteremia Team pose relevant impact in the prognosis of bacteremia.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

13 years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

It will be included all episodes of bacteremia diagnosed over a year in all participating hospitals in patients over 13 years old. It´s no possible to make a calculation of the sample size, this will depend on the type of hospital, the number of beds of the same and the number of blood cultures that are requested during the period of recruitment of the study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Every episode of bacteremia in patients older than 13 years old, confirmed microbiologically and clinically significant (presence of clinical sepsis data at diagnosis) should be prospectively included on the basis of standard criteria.
  • Episodes of transient bacteremia may be included.
  • Drugs will be prescribed in the usual way, according to the conditions established in the authorization. The assignment of a patient to a particular therapeutic strategy will not be decided in advance by the study protocol, but will be determined by the usual clinical practice, and the decision to prescribe a particular drug will be clearly dissociated from the decision to include to the patient in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Bacteremias without clinical relevance
