gatifloxacin and Staphylococcal Infections

gatifloxacin has been researched along with Staphylococcal Infections in 30 studies

Gatifloxacin: A fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent and DNA TOPOISOMERASE II inhibitor that is used as an ophthalmic solution for the treatment of BACTERIAL CONJUNCTIVITIS.
gatifloxacin : A monocarboxylic acid that is 4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid which is substituted on the nitrogen by a cyclopropyl group and at positions 6, 7, and 8 by fluoro, 3-methylpiperazin-1-yl, and methoxy groups, respectively. Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic of the fourth-generation fluoroquinolone family, that like other members of that family, inhibits the bacterial topoisomerase type-II enzymes.

Staphylococcal Infections: Infections with bacteria of the genus STAPHYLOCOCCUS.

Trial Outcomes

Average Number of Antibiotics to Which Isolated Organisms Were Resistant

Average number of antibiotics to which isolated organisms were resistant, isolated organisms include only coagulase negative Staphylococcus species and Staphylococcus aureus. Antibiotics are those described in the methods section. (NCT02223338)
Timeframe: Through study completion, average of 4 weeks

Interventionantibiotics (Mean)
Ciprofloxacin5.44
Standard Aseptic Technique3.23

Number of Participants With Resistance of Ocular Flora to Commonly Used Post-injection Prophylactic Antibiotics

"Resistance of all coagulase negative staph and staph aureus species to a panel of commonly used antibiotics will be determined and compared between groups. Resistance will be measured using minimum inhibitory concentrations which will be tested on the Siemens MicroScan instrument by doubling broth dilutions. Antibiotic susceptibility interpretations using the categories S for susceptible, I for Intermediate and R for Resistance based on the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines.~Ciprofloxacin will be tested using the Biomerieux E test strip. The test directly quantifies antimicrobial susceptibility in terms of discrete MIC values on a continuous gradient strip. The MIC values are also based on the CLSI guidelines giving interpretations of S, I or R.~For information on other antibiotics to be tested, please contact the investigator or provide more characters for input." (NCT02223338)
Timeframe: Cultured organisms will be subjected to resistance panels once they have grown and been identified. Cultures will be followed for 7 days total, and if no growth is recorded at that time they will be considered sterile.
