Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Patients will recieve:

1. Antibiotic regimens guided by colonization/epidemiological surveillance.
2. Conventional antibiotic regimens.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

NONE

The study treatment is not blinded, however the rectal and nasal swabs of the control group will be blinded to the investigator and the participant.

In all participants, microbiology department will immediately process the samples (swabs) in order to identify a potential colonization by MDR bacteria. Results will be available in the SAP system in patients randomized to the surveillance group but will remained blinded for the clinical investigators in the control group. Blinding will be broken when the patient completes the follow-up period (28 days).

Study Groups

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Cirrhotic patients with acute decompensation aged ≥18 years.
2. Proven or suspected bacterial infection requiring antibiotic therapy (diagnosis will be established according to local guidelines, Appendix 1).
3. Signed informed consent or consent given by their legal representatives or close relatives.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Bacterial infection lasting for \> 48 hours.
2. Infection in a critically ill cirrhotic patient (ICU admission). In this population, epidemiological surveillance is standard clinical practice.
3. Evidence of current locally advanced or metastatic malignancy (patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within the Milan criteria and non-melanocytic skin cancer can be included).
4. Pregnant and/or breast-feeding woman.
5. Patients who cannot provide prior informed consent and when there is documented evidence that the patient has no legal surrogate decision-maker and it appears unlikely that the patient will regain consciousness or sufficient ability to provide delayed informed consent.
