A Prospective, Multi-Center, Observational Registry Involving Patients Hospitalized With Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections (cSSTI) for IV Antibiotic Therapy
The purpose of this registry is to better understand (1) complicated skin and soft-tissue
infections requiring hospitalization, and (2) clinical and economic outcomes in hospitalized
patients receiving intravenous antibiotic therapy.
A prospective, multi-center, observational study involving 1200 patients hospitalized for
the treatment of cSSTIs. The study will be conducted at approximately 50 hospitals in the
US. Patients who consent to participate in the registry will be enrolled in the registry
within 24 hours of initial IV antibiotic therapy for treatment of one or more cSSTI types.
Sites will treat patients according to their usual clinical practice. The objective of this
registry is to characterize cSSTIs with respect to patient characteristics and describe
patient outcomes.
