Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Assess the association between the residual serum concentration of ofloxacin at D3 and the occurrence of at least one adverse effect attributable to ofloxacin, and determine a threshold toxicity concentration if this association exists.;Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the association between the residual serum concentration of ofloxacin at D21 and D42 and the occurrence of at least one adverse effect attributable to ofloxacin. - Assess the association between the peak serum concentration of ofloxacin at D3 and an improvement in clinical and biological signs of infection at D42, and determine a threshold concentration if this association exists. - Evaluate the correlation between the serum concentration at the ofloxacin peak at D3 and the change in MIC for the identified germ in patients without improvement in clinical and biological signs of infection (the change in MIC is defined as the delta between initial MIC at initiation of treatment and MIC after several weeks of treatment). ;Primary end point(s): At least 1 adverse reaction attributable to ofloxacin at D3 ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 3 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - At least 1 adverse reaction attributable to ofloxacin D21 and D42 - Rate of clinico-biological improvement of IOA at D42 defined by normalization of temperature, local inflammatory signs, blood leukocyte count and serum CRP concentration. - The peak serum concentration of ofloxacin at D3 and the change in MIC for the identified germ. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 3, day 21, day 42 | — |
