- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Susceptability Changes in Streptococcus Pneumoniae Distal to the Site of Instillation Day 0 and Day 42 Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).
0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibioticSusceptability Changes in Staphylococcus Aureus Distal to the Site of Instillation Day 0, Day 42 Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).
0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibioticSusceptability Changes in Haemophilus Influenzae Distal to the Site of Instillation Day 0, Day 42 Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).
0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibiotic
