Trial summary

The investigators hypothesize that cefazolin perfusion to subcutaneous adipose tissue is reduced in morbidly obese patients. The primary objective of this exploratory pilot study is therefore to investigate target site (subcutaneous adipose tissue) penetration of cefazolin in morbidly obese patients and non-obese… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Peri-and Postoperative Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Cefazolin Determination Using Microdialysis in Morbidly Obese and Non-obese Patients

The investigators hypothesize that cefazolin perfusion to subcutaneous adipose tissue is reduced in morbidly obese patients. The primary objective of this exploratory pilot study is therefore to investigate target site (subcutaneous adipose tissue) penetration of cefazolin in morbidly obese patients and non-obese patients. The investigators aim to examine whether and how cefazolin plasma concentrations are predictive of subcutaneous (target) cefazolin concentrations. Possible factors of influence on the distribution of cefazolin (tissue perfusion, body weight, distribution of adipose tissue, other) will be identified.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Morbid Obesity, run by St. Antonius Hospital at 3 sites in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01309152, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jan 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
