Article Synopsis
- Vancomycin is an antibiotic used for serious Gram-positive infections in children, and its effectiveness depends on a specific dosing measurement known as the AUC/MIC ratio.
- The study compares a new model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) method with standard care in 14 pediatric clinical settings to see if MIPD improves dosing accuracy and reduces potential kidney damage.
- Key outcomes include the rate of patients achieving the target AUC/MIC within the first few days of treatment and monitoring the occurrence of acute kidney injury during this period.
Recent physical activity recommendations call for activities that are of moderate intensity and can be performed intermittently during the day, such as walking. These proclamations were based partly on the assumption that moderate activities are generally more enjoyable than physically demanding ones, and they are, therefore, also more likely to be continued over the long haul. However, little is actually known about the affective outcomes of short bouts of walking and extant findings are equivocal.
