1. The difference in microbiota reconstitution over different timepoints after
hospitalization for CAP.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the most important infection in terms of numbers of patients for which antibiotics are given in the hospital. It is known that after a severe pneumonia and subsequent antibiotic treatment, the gut microbiome is severely perturbed. An association has been described between the extent of this dysbiosis and readmission rates for pneumonia and sepsis.
In recent years we deepened our understanding of the role that the intestinal microbiome plays in the local and systemic immune system. Reconstitution of the severely perturbed microbiome after antibiotic treatment in patients with pneumonia could improve the immune status of patients and thereby ultimately lower readmission and infection rates.
In this pilot study we investigate whether a 90-day treatment with a selected probiotics mixture can reconstitute the gut microbiome diversity after antibiotic treatment for CAP.
Doel van het onderzoek
90-day treatment with a selected probiotics mixture can reconstitute the microbiome diversity after antibiotic treatment for community-acquired pneumonia.
Onderzoeksopzet
Within 24 hours after hospital admission for CAP, 2-4 days into the hospital admission, 90 days after hospital discharge.
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
90-day treatment with a selected probiotics mixture or placebo after hospital admission for community-acquired pneumonia.
