Combatting Bacterial Resistance in Europe - Molecules against Gram Negative Infections (COMBACTE-MAGNET)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2021,
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global public health threat, and most troublesome is the rapid emergence and dissemination of multidrug resistant (MDR) Enterobacteriaceae, Acinetobacter species and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. There is an unmet medical need to prevent P. aeruginosa infection in critically ill patients and to develop new antibiotics for infections caused by Gram-negative bacte ...

SMart weArable Robotic Teleoperated Surgery (SMARTsurg)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS) offers many advantages when compared to traditional MIS, including improved vision, precision and dexterity. While the popularity of RAMIS is steadily increasing, the potential for improving patient outcomes and penetrating into many procedures is not fully realised, largely because of serious limitations in the current instrumentation, control and ...

Combatting Bacterial Resistance in Europe (COMBACTE-NET)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
The emergence of Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) is a global problem, having recently been elevated to the top three threats identified by the World Health Organisation (WHO), and subject of numerous national and international government activities, including the Trans-Atlantic Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance established by the US and EU presidencies. The estimated costs of ARB are aro ...

Preserving old antibiotics for the future : assessment of clinical efficacy by a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic approach to optimize effectiveness and reduce resistance for off-patent antibiotics (AIDA)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2017,
The AIDA project aims to answer the question of clinical effectiveness and optimal dosing of 5 off-patent antibiotics for infections caused by multiple drug resistant (MDR) bacteria in three randomized controlled clinical trials. In an era of increasing emergence of drug resistance (EDR) and lack of new antibiotics, old off- patent antibiotics are increasingly being prescribed to patients. However ...

Training Urology Scientists to develop Treatments (TRUST)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
"Urinary Incontinence (UI) affects around 10% of the population (more than 70 Million people in the EU) and unfortunately - due to the aging population - is an increasing cause of impaired quality of life. The most common cause of UI is called the Overactive bladder syndrome (OABS) of which the underlying complex bio-molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Many distinct tissues (nervous system ...

Novel strategies for wound management (KOALA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
"The objective of the proposed research is the exchange of staff between Europe and Australia for the development of intelligent, bio-responsive materials that will SIGNAL and TREAT INFECTION in wounds as well as SUPPLY valuable medication “on demand” for rapid healing. Wound healing is a worldwide challenge and is, in its basic requirements, common to all people. Different areas of the world, how ...

Active wound dressings based on biological mimicry (BacterioSafe)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
The aim of the Bacteriosafe consortium is to construct, test and develop a unique active wound dressing, which incorporates novel colourimetric sensor and active therapeutic processes for detecting and counteracting pathogenic bacteria in wounds. The inspiration for this project is the natural nano-biological mechanism of bacterial attack on healthy cells. The outer cell walls are ruptured by an a ...

The appropriateness of prescribing antibiotics in primary health care in Europe with respect to antibiotic resistance (APRES)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2014,
"The APRES project aims at providing information and recommendations on the appropriateness of prescribing antibiotics in primary care. The appropriateness of prescribing antibiotics is the extent to which the pattern of prescribed antibiotics is congruent with the antibiotic resistance pattern of bacteria. More than 90% of antibiotics in Europe is prescribed to non-hospitalized patients, but exis ...
