Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary aim of the study is to compare maximum serum levels of moxifloxacin reached by intravenous application versus enteral application. ;Secondary Objective: to compare the area under the concentration curve received by intravenous application versus enteral application.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of the study is the comparison of the maximum serum levels of moxifloxacin after intravenous versus enteral application of 400 mg of moxifloxacin in the steady state level. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint of the study is evaluated with the last blood sample on day 8 after inclusion (24 hours after the last oral intake of Moxifloxacin). After completion of the pharmakokinetic examination patients are monitored regarding any adverse event during their whole intensive care sta | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): area under the concentration curve of moxifloxacin serum levels after intravenous versus enteral application of 400 mg moxifloxacin ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The evaluation can be done when the last of blood samples is taken; for practical reasons the blood samples will be processed, frozen and then be analyzed in batches of samples taken from 3 or 4 patients. | — |
