Ceftriaxone Once Daily for Four Weeks Compared with Ceftriaxone Plus Gentamicin Once Daily for Two Weeks for Treatment of Endocarditis Due to Penicillin-Susceptible Streptococci
Abstract
This randomized, multicenter, open-label study compared the efficacy and safety of monotherapy with 2 g of intravenous ceftriaxone once daily for 4 weeks with those of combination therapy with 2 g of intravenous ceftriaxone and 3 mg of intravenous gentamicin/kg once daily for 2 weeks as therapy for endocarditis due to penicillin-susceptible streptococci. Sixty-one patients were enrolled in the study. Clinical cure was observed for 51 evaluable patients both at termination of therapy and at the 3-month follow-up: 25 (96.2%) of 26 monotherapy recipients and 24 (96%) of 25 combination therapy recipients. Of the 23 patients in each treatment group who were microbiologically evaluable, 22 (95.7%) in each group were considered cured. No patient had evidence of relapse. Fourteen patients (27.5%) required cardiac surgery after initiation of treatment, including five monotherapy recipients and nine combination therapy recipients. Adverse effects were minimal in both treatment groups. We conclude that 2 g of ceftriaxone once daily for 4 weeks and 2 g of ceftriaxone in combination with 3 mg of gentamicin/kg once daily for 2 weeks are both effective and safe for the treatment of streptococcal endocarditis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
