E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. Evaluate: - Probability and rate of antibiotic resistance development during hospitalization. - Probability and rate of MDROs colonization during hospitalization and at 28 days. - Probability and rate of MDROs infection during hospitalization and at 28 days. - Infection resolution rate. - Evolution of severity scores: ACLF, MELD, Child-Pugh, CLIF-OF, CLIF-C AD, and CLIF-C ACLF score (inclusion, infection resolution or day 7, reinfection, hospital discharge and hospital readmission). 2. To determinate the days of admission to the ICU if needed. 3. To determinate the days of life support if needed. 4. To determinate the days of hospital stay. 5. To determinate the number of rehospitalizations. 6. To determinate the antibiotics consumption and health costs. 7. To evaluate the safety of both antibiotic strategies (AE and SAE related and SUSARS and other SAEs). 8. Hospital and 28 days survival (rate and probability). |

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients included into the study must meet all the following 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. |
Los pacientes incluidos en el estudio deberán cumplir los siguientes criterios:

|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Potential participants who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: 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 prac-tice. 3. Evidence of current locally advanced or metastatic malignancy (pa-tients 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 surro-gate decision-maker and it appears unlikely that the patient will re-gain consciousness or sufficient ability to provide delayed informed consent. |
Los potenciales participantes que cumplan algunos de los siguientes criterios serán excluidos del estudio: 1. Infección bacteriana de duración > 48 horas. 2. Infección en un paciente cirrótico en estado crítico (ingreso en la UCI). En esta población, la vigilancia epidemiológica es una práctica clínica habitual. 3. Evidencia de malignidad actual localmente avanzada o metastásica (pueden incluirse Pacientes con carcinoma hepatocellular dentro de los criterios de Milan y cáncer de piel no melanocítico). 4. Mujer embarazada y/o en período de lactancia 5. Pacientes que no puedan dar el consentimiento informado previo y cuando haya pruebas documentadas de que el paciente no tiene un sustituto legal para tomar decisiones y parezca poco probable que el paciente recupere la conciencia o la capacidad suficiente para dar un consentimiento informado tardío. |
