Brief Summary:
Chronic airways infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is associated with increased frequency of exacerbations, deterioration in quality of life and increased mortality in adult patients with bronchiectasis. Current guidelines suggest the prescription of an eradication antibiotic treatment for a first episode of PA infection (early PA infection). Several antibiotic regimens may be proposed, ranging from a monotherapy with oral fluoroquinolone (FQ) to an intravenous cotherapy with the addition of inhaled antibiotics that seems to improve the rate of PA eradication. As no study strictly favoured one regimen, current practices are heterogeneous and could certainly benefit from stronger evidence, with both medical and economic impact.
Detailed Description:
According to current knowledge, the early combination of an oral FQ to an inhaled antibiotic could be an acceptable alternative to a systemic cotherapy. Indeed, such regimen allows avoiding IV drugs use, facilitating ambulatory management and influencing patient's quality of life and costs, and may achieve similar PA-eradication rate.
