Skeletal Muscle and Adipose Tissue Concentrations of Cefazolin Comparing Two Different Dosing Regimens During Pediatric Posterior Spinal Fusion Surgery

The purpose of this research study is to compare the current standard of care for prophylactic Cefazolin administered every 3 hours intravenously with continuous infusion of Cefazolin during pediatric spinal surgery.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Determine the skeletal muscle and adipose tissue disposition of prophylactic Cefazolin using microdialysis sampling in a cohort of patients diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing posterior spinal fusion (PSF) for administration of Cefazolin by either continuous infusion or intermittent bolus.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

12 years to 20 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Two dialysis probes will be inserted into a paraspinal muscle
Other Names:
  • Paraspinal muscle dialysate sample
Device: Subcutaneous microdialysis catheters

  • Subcutaneous dialysate sample
Active Comparator: Second Regimen Group
The second regimen will consist of an initial bolus dose of 30 mg/kg up to maximum of 2000 mg. Following the initial bolus dose a continuous Cefazolin drip will start until the end of surgery. Cefazolin drip dose will be 10 mg/(kg*h) up to maximum of 667 mg/h.Two microdialysis catheters will be inserted into a paraspinal muscle and two microdialysis catheters will be inserted subcutaneously.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
