Optimizing outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy to support hospital-in-the-home program across the unique environmental conditions of Australia [ 2020-05-20T00:00:00 ]

Research Grant

Brief description This project aims to solve problems associated with stability and dosing of antibiotic infusions given to patients in their homes, to support decision making by doctors and regulators. Currently, there is a lack of adequate data that complies with contemporary requirements. We will study infusion preparation both in laboratory settings and in ‘real-life’ conditions while being used by patients. We will enhance the stability of antibiotic preparations and optimize doses for effective treatment.
