Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted on ventilator-associated tracheitis or pneumonia in mechanically ventilated children using inhaled tobramycin at specific intervals to assess drug levels and kidney function.
- The main goal was to find how many patients had tobramycin levels above 0.5 µg/mL, while secondary goals included comparing patient characteristics and tracking any instances of acute kidney injury (AKI).
- Out of 44 patients studied, 68% had detectable drug levels and 20.5% experienced AKI, but no significant differences were found in demographics or medical details between those with and without detectable levels or AKI.
