The Per-procedural Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Trial
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Beta-lactam antibiotic with spectrum for Enterococcus faecalis: Beta-lactam antibiotic with spectrum for Enterococcus faecalis (e.g. ampicillin 2g) add-on in combination with cephalosporin as per-procedural prophylaxis in TAVI
Cephalosporin: Cephalosporin treatment
Study summary
The study is a prospective, crossover, cluster randomized trial in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The study tests whether cephalosporin plus beta-lactam antibiotic with spectrum for Enterococcus faecalis as per procedural prophylaxis is superior to cephalosporin alone in reducing the composite outcome of bacteremia or death at 6 months post-TAVI.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
