What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The peak plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime

    To detect the peak plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime after intravenous administration.

    Measured: at (5-10) minutes after intravenous administration

  2. The random plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime

    To detect the random plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime after intravenous administration.

    Measured: at (0.25-10) hours after intravenous administration.

  3. The trough plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime

    To detect the trough plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime after intravenous administration.

    Measured: at 1-2 hours before the next administration

  4. The time of free drug concentration exceeding the minimal inhibitory concentration (fT>MIC)

    PD target

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 3 days

  5. Adverse events

    Drug-related adverse events and serious adverse events

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 15 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infectious Disease, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Wei Zhao, Ph.D (86053188383308, zhao4wei2@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The peak plasma drug concentration of cefuroxime (time frame: at (5-10) minutes after intravenous administration). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 24 May 2022.
