Summary

This study tests whether 7 days of antibiotics works as well as the standard 14 days for treating a serious bloodstream infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. About 300 adults who have already received 6 days of treatment will be randomly assigned to stop at 7 days or continue for 14 days. The goal is to see if a shorter course can reduce side effects and antibiotic use without increasing the risk of death or infection return.
