Close study of the poster "Pathogen eradication by phage therapy in patients wich chronic bacterial prostatitis"



Unfortunately for the moment the clinical cases  where  Phage therapy  is applied are infrequent.
For learning  it is inevitable to read the experience of others.

I start with a close study of this poster:


1-Disease (here):


 2-Methods:

-22 men with CBP and positive bacterial culture of expressed prostatic fluid (EPS)
- bacteria:
E.fecalis: n=16
E.coli: n=5
K.pneumoniae: n=2
P.aeruginosa: n=1
S.haemoliticus: n=1
-No presence of other micro-organisms (Chlamidia, Mycoplasma etc.)*
-No any drugs for at least one month
-measurement of the prostate size and of the urinary flow rate
- measurement of the index NIH-CPSI
-statistical  valuation





3-Phage treatment (year 2013):



 Comment:

Phage preparation is the same from:

here  ( year 1981)





Phage preparation is the same from:


here ( year 2000)

Phage preparation:



 4-Results:
 

Mean PT duration: 47 days 
Eradication in 50% of the cases
No side effects

  almost too easy!!
