Secondary Bacterial Infections and Nasal Colonization in Scabies and Atopic Dermatitis
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
This prospective observational study will evaluate the microbiological profile of secondary bacterial infection and nasal colonization in participants with scabies or atopic dermatitis. Bacteria isolated from impetiginized skin lesions and nasal swabs will be compared, and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns will be assessed. Healthy participants without an inflammatory skin disease or signs of infection will provide nasal swabs as a control group. Patients will be followed on days 7 and 14 to assess clinical response and related clinical measures.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Concordance of bacterial species between impetiginized skin lesion and nasal cultures — At baseline (enrollment)
Among participants in the scabies and atopic dermatitis groups with paired evaluable skin and nasal cultures, concordance will be defined as isolation of the same bacterial species from both anatomical sites. Species-level agreement will be summarized and evaluated using Cohen's kappa coefficient.
