gentamicin and Abdominal Injuries

gentamicin has been researched along with Abdominal Injuries in 17 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

Abdominal Injuries: General or unspecified injuries involving organs in the abdominal cavity.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To determine whether a combination of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride and metronidazole hydrochloride would be as effective or more effective than a combination of gentamicin sulfate and metronidazole hydrochloride for preventing infection in patients with penetrating abdominal trauma, to evaluate the factors associated with increased risk of infection, and to determine the serum peak and trough levels of gentamicin with the dosage regimen of 2."5.08A trial of ciprofloxacin and metronidazole vs gentamicin and metronidazole for penetrating abdominal trauma. ( McCreadie, S; Tyburski, JG; Warsow, KM; Wilson, RF, 1998)
"5 g, every 6 hours) were compared with combined gentamicin (80 mg, every 8 hours) and metronidazole (500 mg every 6 hours) therapy in 246 patients hospitalized for penetrating abdominal injuries."5.07Piperacillin monotherapy compared with metronidazole and gentamicin combination in penetrating abdominal trauma. ( Ganesan, N; Lou, MA; Sims, EH; Thadepalli, H; Williams, SW, 1993)
"Aztreonam was administered at a dosage of 2 g every 8 hours and gentamicin at 5 mg/kg for the first 24 hours and then adjusted by serum monitoring to a peak of 6 to 8 micrograms/mL and a trough of less than 2 micrograms/mL; all patients received 900 mg of clindamycin every 8 hours."2.67Superiority of aztreonam/clindamycin compared with gentamicin/clindamycin in patients with penetrating abdominal trauma. ( Boucher, BA; Charland, SL; Croce, MA; Fabian, TC; Hess, MM; Rodman, JH; Wilson, RS; Wilson, SE, 1994)
"This study was done to determine if a single drug, mezlocillin (Mezlo), is as safe and as effective as combined clindamycin (Clind) and gentamicin (Gent) in the treatment of penetrating abdominal wounds."2.66Safety and efficacy of mezlocillin: a single-drug therapy for penetrating abdominal trauma. ( Lou, MA; Mandal, AK; Thadepalli, H, 1988)
