Résumé

The aim of this prospective explorative study was to evaluate the safety and the effectiveness of topical polyvinylpyrrolidone-iodine (PVP-I) administered during the time-to-results period for pathogen identification and susceptibility testing in patients with infectious keratitis (IK). A corneal swab (CS) for antimicrobial evaluation was performed at enrollment (T0) and topical 0.66%-PVP-I was administered until the laboratory results were available (T1). Ulcer and infiltrate areas and infiltrate depths were compared between T0 and T1 (i.e., time-to-result period). Patients were then shifted to a specific antimicrobial therapy and followed up until resolution of their infiltrates (Tlast-TL). Twenty-five eyes were enrolled, and none showed clinical worsening leading to protocol withdrawal. At T1, ulcer and infiltrate areas showed significant improvement in Gram-positive IK (
