3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective randomized controlled day comparing the efficacy of three-day antimicrobial treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in pregnancy to the standard seven-day treatment. Half the patients will receive 3-day treatment and the other half will receive 7 days of antibiotics.
The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of cranberry juice that is most effective in preventing a condition in pregnant women that often leads to urinary tract infections (UTIs).
This study is to help determine if drinking cranberry juice can decrease risk for asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB). ASB occurs when there are bacteria in the urine without any symptoms. It will also see if there is a difference in this effect between pregnant and non-pregnant women.This research project is also designed to see what happens to bacterial binding to the lining of the bladder after drinking cranberry juice when special problems occur with pregnancy such as diabetes (a sugar metabolism problem) or ASB is already occurring.
