Using antibiotics early on in intensive care prevents infection
A Sunnybrook-led study – the world’s largest and longest clinical trial in critical care – has shown a significant reduction in hospital-acquired infection in critically-ill patients on mechanical…

The world’s largest and longest clinical trial in critical care, SuDDICU found a significant reduction in hospital-acquired infection in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation, when given antibiotics preventatively before a new infection can develop.

Neat features including use of routine healthcare data to estimate the likely ICC and cluster autocorrelation coefficient which gave accurate estimates for the sample size calcs 2/3
