Brief Summary: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of antibiotic combinations containing Colistin in the treatment of children with multidrug-resistant gram negative infections admitted in the pediatric surgery intensive care unit

The main outcome measure is clinical and microbiological responses to therapy

The secondary outcome is the occurrence of adverse events during Colistin combination treatment
Detailed Description: Patients and Methods

Design of the study

- Prospective Randomized interventional study

Setting

- The study will be conducted in the pediatric surgery intensive care unit in Childrens Hospitals Ain Shams University Cairo Egypt

Subjects

- Pediatric patients admitted in pediatric surgery intensive care unit

Inclusion criteria

All children with culture-proven nosocomial infections due to multidrug resistance gram-negative organisms

Exclusion criteria

1 Patients who started on Colistin treatment outside the pediatric surgery intensive care unit and transferred to the unit afterward will be excluded
2 Patients who will receive 6 doses of intravenous Colistin will be excluded
3 Patients received Imipenem or Colistin-Imipenem compination as empirical antibiotic

Methodology

- Sixty pediatric patients admitted to the pediatric surgery intensive care unit will be enrolled in the study and will be randomly assigned to either Group I or Group II

Group I Thirty patients will receive IV Colistin in dosages of 50000-75000 IUkgday in three divided doses infused IV in 10mL normal saline over 30 minutes with IV Imipenem in doses of 15 to 25 mgkg every 6 hours212224 Colistin formulation consists of 2 million IU per vial Group II Thirty patients will receive IV Imipenem in doses of 15 to 25 mgkg every 6 hours 2224

For all patients the following data will be collected

1 Demographic data age gender weight
2 The risk factors for nosocomial infections
3 Pediatric surgery intensive care unit stay
4 Type of surgeries performed
5 Site of isolation of organisms
6 The dose and duration of therapy
7 Serum creatinine levels will be assessed at baseline once weekly and at the end of Colistin combination therapy
8 Nephrotoxic co-medication monitoring
9 Clinical resolution of signs and symptoms of infection and
10 microbiological bacteriologic responses outcomes will be evaluated during treatment and at the end of the treatment

According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria the demographic data for the intended ICU patients was collected then the sample was withdrawn from the infected site to be cultured on specific culture media such as blood agar MacConkey agar Chocolate agar and identification of the isolated microorganism was detected by biochemical tests and Vitek-2 compact system whenever required Antimicrobial sensitivity to Colistin was tested using the micro broth dilution method in order to be evaluated in Colistin therapy After culture-proven the drug was given either IV Colistin-ImipenemCilastatin as a combination or ImipenemCilastatin as a monotherapy Throughout this step the hemodynamic parameters were measured during the process of treatment without neglecting the serum creatinine level to detect any nephrotoxicity

We assure the right drug handling dosing dispensing and monitoring At the end of the treatment the duration and length of PICU stay were recorded

The decision andor conclusion of treatment failure and or success was based upon the worsening andor improvement of the patients parameters and their situation including the results of the microbiological examination before and after the intervention
