Are obese patients getting enough infection protection before surgery?
NCT ID NCT07253805
Summary
This study aims to find out if the standard antibiotic doses given to obese patients before weight-loss surgery are high enough to prevent infections. Researchers will measure how much of the antibiotic cefazolin gets into patients' blood and fat tissue during surgery. The goal is to see if heavier patients need different doses to ensure the medicine works properly where it's needed most.
