摘要
The chronic carriage of salmonellae is defined as the shedding of a Salmonella species for greater-than-or-equal-to 1 year, as documented by an initial positive culture of a stool sample obtained at least 1 month after resolution of the acute illness and repeated positive cultures for at least 1 year. Clinical trials of investigational anti-infective drugs for the treatment of the salmonella carrier state may be conducted with a placebo control or an active concurrent control. A crossover design also may be employed for establishing efficacy. Patients should generally receive therapy for at least 6 weeks. Outcome will be assessed only by microbiological criteria. Determination of the interval required for the suppression of salmonellae and follow-up for 6 months after completion of therapy are recommended.
