Obesity
Conditions
Brief summary
If tigecycline clearance increases with body size then serum exposure values will be lower in obese class III compared to normal weight subjects because exposure changes inversely with clearance when the dose is fixed without regard to weight.

Outcome results
Single-dose Serum AUC of Tigecycline Between Time 0 and 96 Hours
The AUC is the area under the concentration time curve in serum measured in the unit of concentration in milligram of tigeycline per liter of plasma multiplied by the time interval in hours (hour\*mg/L)
Time frame: 4 days (96 hours)
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Serum AUC of Tigecycline | Single-dose Serum AUC of Tigecycline Between Time 0 and 96 Hours | 7.64 hour*mg/L | Standard Deviation 1.28 |
