Grant Activity:
The AIRSPACE Trial: AntI-MRSA PhAge Cocktail treatment via Acoustic Enhanced Nebulisers
Purpose:
Previous research in our team has shown promise for the use of bacteriophage, a virus that kills bacteria, for the treatment of infections of the sinuses. However, delivery of bacteriophage to the sinuses uses a nasal rinsing device, wasting >97% of phage. This is unacceptable as manufacturing of phage is expensive. In this project we will conduct a trial to see whether treatments with bacteriophage delivered using a specific device is more effective than antibiotics to kill those bacteria.
