Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Prospective randomized study comparing different colistin dosing regimens in paediatric cancer patient with MDR gram-negative infection or sepsis

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to:

1. Evaluate the clinical outcome of two different dosing regimen of IV colistin in the treatment of children with multidrug resistant gram-negative infections or sepsis.
2. To estimate the frequency of colistin associated adverse effects.
3. To correlate the serum colistin concentration and MIC to microbiological clearance and clinical outcome
