Lactobacillus Reuteri DSM 17938 and Prevention of Respiratory and Gastrointestinal Infections in Mexican Infants
29 de novembro de 2010 atualizado por: National Institute of Pediatrics, Mexico
Efficacy & Cost-Effectiveness of Lactobacillus Reuteri DSM 17938 Administration to Prevent the Risk of Respiratory or Gastrointestinal Infections in Child Day Care Centers: A Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Control Trial (RDDCT).
Randomized, doble blind, clinical, controlled trial aimed to investigate the role of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 in the prevention of gastrointestinal and respiratory tract infections in mexican children who attend day care centers.
Primary Outcome: The primary outcome will be "days with diarrhoea". Secondary Outcomes: a) Days with respiratory tract infections (RTI); b) Days of absences from day care centre; c) Days of antibiotic use; d) Days of medical office visits or emergency visits; and e) Direct and Indirect costs.
Methods: Prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial to realize in 260 healthy term infants, born at term (≥36 weeks of gestation), 6 to 36 months old, who will be recruit from Child Care Centers in Mexico and randomly allocated to receive either 1 x 108 colony-forming units of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 or placebo, each day for 12 weeks, follow up for other additionally 12 weeks of observation. Days with respiratory tract infections (RTI); days of absences from day care centre; days of antibiotic use; days of medical office visits or emergency visits; and direct and Indirect costs will be compare between groups using bi-variate, multiple lineal regression analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis

Experimental: Lreuteri
Group of 130 infants allocated to receive L. reuteri DSM 17938 will be given at a dose of 5 drops containing 1x108 colony-forming units (CFU) once time per day in an oil formulation delivered from a drop bottle.
In the active study product, freeze-dried L. reuteri is suspended in a mixture of pharmaceutical grade medium chain triglycerides and sunflower oil together with pharmaceutical grade silicon dioxide to give the product the correct rheological properties.
