Assessment of PCR Multiplex Tests as a Tool to Obtain a Quicker Diagnosis of Bacteria Responsible for Foot Osteomyelitis Than Usual Cultures

NCT03434288 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 48

Last updated 2020-06-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Bone samples from infected diabetic feet will be collected and tests will be performed for the diagnosis of causative bacteria. Samples will be processed by PCR multiplex tests and usual cultures for identification of causative bacteria and sensitivity to antibiotics. Results obtained by the two methods will be compared in terms of quickness and similarity of germ identification. Usual care strategy will not be modified since results of PCR multiplex tests will not be transmitted to the physicians before the results of usual cultures.
