Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To develop a population pharmacokinetic model for ciprofloxacin in preterm and term neonates, and infants up to the age of 3 months. The model will account for the age of the baby (including prematurity) and how well the kidneys are working. ;Secondary Objective: Adverse event 'side effect' monitoring to examine whether the medicine is well-tolerated by babies. Do any genetic factors predict how babies deal with ciprofloxacin?;Primary end point(s): Population pharmacokinetic model of ciprofloxacin in neonates and infants < 3 months of age. | — |
