In vivo pharmacokinetics of a gentamicin-loaded collagen sponge in acute periprosthetic infection - Serum values in 19 patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background The in vivo pharmacokinetics of gentamycin- loaded collagen fleeces in humans have not been described in the current literature. We therefore analyzed in vivo pharmacokinetics of these fleeces when used in the treatment of periprosthetic ...
