Scientists track antibiotics in infected lungs

NCT ID NCT04350502

Summary

This study aimed to measure how much of two common antibiotics (amoxicillin and clavulanic acid) actually reaches the infected fluid around the lungs in patients with serious chest infections. Researchers took repeated blood and chest fluid samples from 11 adult patients who needed a chest tube for their infection. The goal was to gather better data to help doctors use these antibiotics more effectively.
