In Vitro Activity of Tigecycline Among Key Bacterial Pathogens Exhibiting Multidrug Resistance

June 21, 2011 updated by: King Faisal University
Observational: studies in human beings in which biomedical and/or health outcomes are assessed in pre-defined groups of individuals. Subjects in the study may receive diagnostic, therapeutic, or other interventions, but the investigator does not assign specific interventions to the subjects of the study.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Study Phase Definition: Phase of investigation, as defined by the US FDA for trials involving investigational new drugs. Select only one.

N/A: for trials without phases Observational Study Design Case-control: group of individuals with specific characteristics (e.g., conditions or exposures) compared to group(s) with different Time Perspective Cross-sectional: observations or measurements made at a single point in time, usually at subject enrollment Biospecimen Retention - select one Samples Without DNA - samples retained, with no potential for DNA extraction from any retained samples (e.g., fixed tissue, plasma) Biospecimen Description

Sputum, whole blood, urine, tissue Enrollment

Single group study Number of Groups/Cohorts Definition: Number of study groups/cohorts. Enter 1 for a single-group study. Many observational studies have one group/cohort; case control studies typically have two.
