E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To investigate concentrations of the antibiotic cefuroxime in tissue of the spine in patients (adolescents and adults) undergoing spine deformity surgery after administration of weight-dosed cefuroxime. |
At undersøge, koncentrationen af cefuroxim i rygsøjlens væv hos patienter (unge og voksne) der skal have foretaget operation af rygdeformiteter efter administration af vægtjusteret cefuroxim. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Use the pharmacokinetic results to evaluate the current guidelines for perioperative dosing of cefuroxime. |
At benytte de farmakokinetiske resultater til at vurdere de nuværende retningslinjer for perioperativ dosering af cefuroxim. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
- Sign informed consent (and sign informed consent by parents with child custody when participants are under 18 years of age). - Planned spine deformity surgery at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Aarhus University Hospital - Normal preoperative kidney function (assessed by eGFR, P-creatinin) |
- Underskrevet samtykkeerklæring (samt underskrevet samtykke erklæring fra forældre med forældremyndighed ved deltagere under 18 år). - Planlagt rygdeformitetskirurgi på Ortopædkirurgisk Afdeling, Aarhus Universitetshospital. - Normal nyrefunktion præoperativt (vurderet ved biokemi: eGFR, P-kreatinin).
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
- Fertile women may not be pregnant (asked about the likelihood of pregnancy at preliminary visit and offered preoperative plasma hCG for clarification if in doubt). - Allergy towards cefuroxime. - Antibiotic treatment with cefuroxime 4 days prior to surgery.
|
- Fertile kvinder må ikke være gravide (ved indledende besøg spørges ind til sandsynlighed for graviditet og tilbydes præoperativ plasma hCG for evt. afklaring ved tvivl). - Allergi overfor cefuroxim. - Antibiotikabehandling med cefuroxim i de foregående 4 dage inden operation.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |

Den tid koncentrationen af cefuroxime er over den minimalt inhibotoriske concentration (T>MIC) målt over maksimalt 12 timer efter anlæggelse af mikrodialysekatetre i hhv. knoglevæv, paravertebral muskulatur, subcutis og cikatrice. |
