Single-dose versus multiple-dose antibiotic prophylaxis for the surgical treatment of closed fractures
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent meta-analyses have suggested similar wound infection rates when using single- or multiple-dose antibiotic prophylaxis in the operative management of closed long bone fractures. In order to assist clinicians in choosing the optimal prophylaxis strategy, we performed a cost-effectiveness analysis comparing single- and multiple-dose prophylaxis. METHODS A cost-effec...

To the Editor:—We read with interest the article by Langesæter et al. that investigated the hemodynamic effects of a low-dose versus a higher-dose bupivacaine spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery. While the LiDCOplus (LiDCO Ltd., Cambridge, United Kingdom) monitor for continuous hemodynamic measurements seems promising because of its minimal invasiveness, the use of low-dose bupivacaine for ...
