NCT ID NCT06690905

Summary

This study tested whether giving a common antibiotic (piperacillin-tazobactam) as a longer, slower infusion is a practical way to research better dosing for people with obesity. It involved 45 hospitalized adults with obesity who needed this antibiotic. The main goal was to see if this type of study was feasible to run, checking things like how many people could join and if blood tests could be done on schedule.
