Description

A METHOD OF DESTROYING BACTERIAL BIOFILM USING STERILE
INTRAVENOUS OR INTRACAVERNOUS GLYCERIN
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[00011 Field of Invention
[00021 This invention pertains to the use of sterile intravenous or intracavemous glycerin solutions to treat biofilms that infect humans and animals.
[00031 Description of Related Art
[00041 A biofllm occurs when bacteria stick to each other on a surface. These adherent cells are frequently embedded within a self-producing matrix of extra eel lular polymeric substance. Biofilms are also referred to as slime. The polymeric conglomeration is generally composed of extra-cellular DNA, proteins and polysaceharides. Initially the biofilm is weak and adhesion is by yan der Waals forces. Later, the bacteria form cell adhesion structures such as pili. Once colonization has begun the biofilm grows through a combination of cell division and recruitment.
[0005] The development of biofilm may allow for an aggregated cell colony to be increasingly antibiotic resistant. Bacteria from the biofilm can disperse which causes the spread and colonization of new surfaces. The matrix protects the bacteria within it and facilitates communication among them through biochemical signals. Biofilm has been implicated in such problems as urinary tract infections, endocarditis, cystic fibrosis and infections of prosthesis and heart valve. Invariably the only recourse for treating prosthetics such as mechanical heart valve is to have them replaced. Biofilms are present on the removed tissue of 80% of patients undergoing surgery for chronic sinusitis.
[0006] In the 1980's Danish pioneers first connected biofilms with human disease and then antibiotic resistant infections. They discovered that once these biofilm infections had begun they are difficult to get rid of in the body. The immune system can mop up free-floating bacteria in the blood but reaching bacteria in biofilms is difficult.
[00071 Even if an antibiotic reaches a biofllm, a large portion of the bacteria would be insensitive to the specific antibiotic as bacteria in a bioflim occupied a spectrum of physiological state from rapid growing to dormant. The dormant bacteria are not vulnerable to the antibiotic. Later, these dormant bacteria can quickly renew the biofilm. Low oxygen concentration in the biofllm also protects the bacteria from some antibiotics.
[00081 The CDC claims that 65% of bacterial infections that are treated by physicians develop biofilm. Biofilm have been implicated in chronic infections. Most notable among them is staphylococcus aureus especially the methicillin resistant variety, staphylococcus epidermis and pseudomonas aeruginosa. Topical glycerin can treat biofilm in the mouth such as halitosis.
[0010] A 66 year old female developed cellulitis and an open ulcer on her leg. This was treated by oral antibiotics and was also treated at an outpatient wound care center. When the outpatient care was not successful she was admitted to the hospital for intravenous antibiotics. After 3 weeks there was no sign of improvement and the ulcer was enlarging. At this stage the ulcer measured 3 cm by I V2 cm in size and there was surrounding redness suggestive of inflammation. She was then given intravenous glycerin. The intravenous glycerin was given as a solution of 3% glycerin and 3% amino acids. This is currently the only commercially available source of intravenous glycerin. She was given the infusion at a rate of 80 cubic centimeters (cc) per hour. At the end of 48 hours there was evidence of healing in the ulcer. During these 48 hours she was continued on intravenous antibiotics.
After 72 hours the patient was discharged home on oral antibiotics. When she was re-examined 3 weeks later there was no evidence of the ulcer and the surrounding inflammation that was caused by cellulitis had totally cleared. Ulcers such as this patient had develop bacterial biofilm and can havc incrcascd resistance to antibiotics that at times cause the antibiotics to be ineffective.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0012] In some embodiments, the concentration of glycerin in the normal saline solution is approximately 3%.
[0013] In some embodiments, the concentration of amino acids in the normal saline solution is approximately 3%.
[0014] In some embodiments, the intravenous solution is administered for 48 hours at 80 cc/hour.
[0015] In some embodiments, the normal saline solution comprising a certain percentage concentration by volume of glycerin and a certain percentage by volume of an amino acid solution is infused into an infected body cavity.
[0016] In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises methicil lin resistant staphylococcus aurcus.
[0017] In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises staphylococcus epidermis.
[001 8] In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises pseudomonas aeruginosa.
[0019] In some embodiments, the infected body cavity is a pleural cavity.
[0020] In somc embodiments, thc infcctcd body cavity is a pcritoncal cavity.
[0021] In some embodiments, approximately 500 cc of the normal saline solution comprising a ccrtain pcrccntagc concentration by volume of glycerin and a ccrtain percentage by volumc of an amino acid solution is infrised into an infected body cavity.
[00221 In some embodiments, greater than 500 cc of the normal saline solution comprising a certain percentage concentration by volume of glycerin and a certain percentage by volume of an amino acid solution is infused into an infected body cavity.
[00231 Also disclosed is a method of optimizing therapeutic efficacy for treatment of a bacterial infection within a body cavity comprising administering a normal saline solution comprising a certain percentage concentration by volume of glycerin and a certain percentage by volume of an amino acid solution.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF TUE INVENTION
[00241 Glycerin is a simple polyol compound. Tons of it is produced annually in the United States and Europe. It is made from animal fats and vegetable oils. Only one company in the United States makes a product that is sterile and used for intravenous administration. It has been used since 1976 as a non-glycemic source of carbohydrates as a source of nutrition in patients who are unable to process food via the gastrointestinal tract. It is remarkable for its safety profile and is free of allergic reactions. It is generally infused at a 3% concentration at a rate of 80-100 milliliters per hour. Those with heart failure and kidney failure may need a slower rate of infusion. As in the case outlined here it can diffuse a bacterial biofllm.
[00251 Glycerin can assist antibiotics and the immune system in conquering bacteria biofllm.
In this capacity it can reduce the ever-occurring resistance of bacteria to antibiotics. Cavity spaces such as the pleural cavity and the peritoncal cavity can develop infections with biofllms. Infusing these cavities with the 3% solution of Glycerin would help breakdown these biofllms. For example, haifa liter of the solution would be infused into a pleural cavity.
A greater amount could be infused into the pcritoncal cavity.
[0026j Embodiments are directed to a method of treating a biofllm-associated infection in a subjcct comprising administering via an intravenous connection to the subject a normal saline solutioll comprising a certain percentage concentration by volume of glycerin and a certain percentage by volume of an amino acid solution.
[0027] In some embodiments, the concentration of glycerin in the normal saline solution is approximately 3%.
[0028j In some embodiments, the concentration of amino acids in the normal saline solution is approximately 3%.
[0029j In some embodiments, the intravenous solution is administered for 48 hours at 80 cc/hour.
[0030j In some embodiments, the normal saline solution comprising a certain percentage concentration by volume of glycerin and a certain percentage by volume of an amino acid solution is infused into an infcctcd body cavity.
[00311 In somc cmbodimcnts, the infusion occurs via intracavernous administration.
[0032] In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises methicillin resistant staphylococcus aurcus.
[0033j In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises staphylococcus epidermis.
[0034] In some embodiments, the bacterial infection comprises pseudomonas aeruginosa.
[00351 In somc cmbodimcnts, the infected body cavity is a plcural cavity.
[00361 In somc cmbodimcnts, the infected body cavity is a peritoncal cavity.
[0037j A concentration higher than 3% of glycerin may be more effective.
[0038] Brand names include Procalamine from B. Braun Medical Inc. [00391 ProcalAmine® (3% Amino Acid and 3% Glycerin Injcction with Electrolytes) is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, moderately hypertonic intravenous injection containing crystalline amino acids, a nonprotein energy substrate and maintenance electrolytes.
