Antibiotics After Incision and Drainage to Prevent Fistula Formation After First Episode of Perianal Abscess (RAPID)
Randomized Antibiotics for Prevention of Fistula After Incision and Drainage of First-Episode Perianal Abscess (RAPID): A Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if antibiotics can prevent the formation of fistula-in-ano after incision and drainage of a first time of perianal abscess in adults. A perianal abscess is a collection of infected fluid near the anus. A Fistula-in-ano is an abnormal tunnel that can form between the anal canal and the skin after an abscess.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does taking antibiotics after incision and drainage of a perianal abscess lower the chance of developing a Fistula-in-ano? What medical problems or side effects do participants have after taking antibiotics or not taking antibiotics?
Researchers will compare participants who recieve antibiotics after abscess drainage with paticipants who do not recieve antibiotics after abscess drainage, to see if antibiotics lower the chance of developing a Fistula-in-ano.
Participants will:
Be randomly assigned to recieve antibiotics for 7 days after abscess incision and drainage or to not recieve antibiotics after abscess incision and drainage.
Attend follow-up clinic visits after incision and drainage as part of their standard of care.
Complete follow-up phone call about 12 months after incision and drainage. Allow the study team to review their medical record for abscess treatment, symptoms, recurrence, fistula-in-ano formation, additional procedures, and antibiotics side effects.

詳細な説明
This is a single-center, randomized, open-label clinical trial evaluating whether a 7-day course of postoperative antibiotics after standard of care incision and drainage of a first-time perianal abscess reduces subsequent anal fistula formation compared with no postoperative antibiotics.
Perianal abscess is a common anorectal condition treated primarily with incision and drainage. After drainage, some patients later develop an anal fistula, which is an abnormal tract between the anal canal and the perianal skin. The role of routine antibiotics after adequate drainage remains uncertain, especially in patients without high-risk clinical features that would otherwise require antibiotics as part of standard care. This study is designed to evaluate whether a short postoperative antibiotic course can reduce fistula formation after a first episode of perianal abscess.
Eligible adult participants with a first-time perianal abscess requiring incision and drainage will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either postoperative antibiotics or no postoperative antibiotics. Participants assigned to the antibiotic arm will receive amoxicillin/clavulanate for 7 days. Participants with penicillin allergy may receive ciprofloxacin plus metronidazole instead. Participants assigned to the no-antibiotic arm will not receive postoperative antibiotics unless antibiotics are later determined to be medically necessary by the treating clinician.
All participants will receive standard clinical care for the perianal abscess, including incision and drainage as determined by the treating surgical team. The study does not change the technical approach to drainage or other clinically indicated care. The research intervention is the randomized postoperative antibiotic strategy.
Participants will be followed through routine clinical visits and a 12-month follow-up phone call. The study will collect information from the medical record and follow-up contacts regarding fistula formation, recurrent abscess, additional procedures or treatment, emergency department visits or readmissions, antibiotic use, medication adherence, and antibiotic-related adverse events. The findings may help clarify whether routine postoperative antibiotics should be used after drainage of first-time perianal abscess in patients without other clinical indications for antibiotics.

実験的:Antibiotics after Incision and Drainage
Participants assigned to this arm will receive antibiotics for 7 days after standard of care incision and drainage of a first-time perianal abscess.
The planned antibiotic regimen is amoxicillin/clavulanate.
Participants with penicillin allergy may receive ciprofloxacin plus metronidazole instead.
|
Participants assigned to the antibiotics after incision and drainage arm will receive amoxicillin/clavulanate 875/125 mg by mouth twice daily for 7 days after standard of care incision and drainage.
Participants assigned to the antibiotics after incision and drainage arm who have a penicillin allergy may receive ciprofloxacin 500 mg by mouth twice daily plus metronidazole 500 mg by mouth three times daily for 7 days after standard of care incision and drainage.
|
|
介入なし:No antibiotics after Incision and Drainage
Participants randomized to this arm will not receive postoperative antibiotics after standard of care incision and drainage, unless antibiotics are later determined to be clinically necessary by the treating clinician.
Any antibiotic use after randomization will be recorded, and participants may continue study follow-up unless they withdraw or the study team determines that stopping participation is necessary for safety.
