Efficacy of Temocillin in Urinary Tract Infection Due to ESBL Producing and AmpC Hyperproducing Enterobacteriaceae

Summary

The present study aims at demonstrating the efficacy of temocillin in the treatment of UTI requiring parenteral therapy due to a confirmed ESBL producing or AmpC hyperproducing Enterobacteriaceae, resistant to quinolones and Bactrim® in France. In addition, this study will describe and support the use of high dose (6g/day) of temocillin which could be of interest for the treatment urinary tract infection due to multi-resistant bacteria having high MIC (up to 32 mg/L). The investigators will also evaluate the tolerance of the drug by monitoring the adverse event and the incidence of eventual Clostridium difficile associated infection.
