Microbiological profile of secondary bacterial infections and nasal colonization in patients with scabies and atopic dermatitis: a prospective observational study
NCT ID NCT07813611
First seen Sep 10, 2026 · Last updated Sep 10, 2026
Summary
This prospective observational study will evaluate the microbiological profile of secondary bacterial infection and nasal colonization in participants with scabies or atopic dermatitis. Bacteria isolated from impetiginized skin lesions and nasal swabs will be compared, and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns will be assessed. Healthy participants without an inflammatory skin disease or signs of infection will provide nasal swabs as a control group. Patients will be followed on days 7 and 14 to assess clinical response and related clinical measures.
