Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To show, that the incidence of sternal wound infections at day 30 after cardiac surgery is 50% lower with the additional use of Daptomycin on top of a standard antibiotic prophylaxis as compared to the standard antibiotic prophylaxis alone. ;Secondary Objective: - incidence of sternal wound infections at day 30 after cardiac surgery - safety and tolerability of Daptomycin in the setting of prophylactic use;Primary end point(s): To show that the incidence of sternal wound infections is at least 50% lower if Daptomycin is used on top of a standard antibiotic prophylaxis as compared to the standard antibiotic prophylaxis alone.
