Measure
Sulbactam Sodium/Ampicillin Sodium
The usual adult dosage was 6 g daily (strength) in two divided doses as sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium given by intravenous injection or intravenous drip infusion. In cases of severe infection, the dose could be increased with a maximum dose of 3 g (strength) four times daily (12 g \[strength\] daily).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 14 Days

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria of the study, and who had been received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium at least once.

A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 14 Days

Population: The effectiveness analysis set comprised of participants in safety analysis set who had effectiveness evaluation at least once.

Clinical effectiveness rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved clinical effectiveness over the total number of participants with assessable effectiveness evaluation, was presented by each indication (pneumonia, lung abcess and peritorinitis) along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval. Overall effectiveness of sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was determined by the investigator based on clinical symptoms and examinations at the end of high-dose (\>6 g daily) treatment. Clinical effectiveness was assessed according to the following categories: (1) effective, (2) ineffective, or (3) unassessable at the end of treatment.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 14 Days

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria of the study, and who had been received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium at least once.

A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. A treatment-related serious adverse event was a treatment-related adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; lifethreatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria of the study, and who had been received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium at least once.

A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium in a participant who received sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium. Expectedness of the adverse event was determined according to Japanese package insert. Relatedness to sulbactam sodium/ampicillin sodium was assessed by the investigator.
