Grant Activity:
Is oral antibiotic treatment alone non-inferior to standard care for children with bone and joint infections?
Purpose:
Bone and joint infections are common in children and can lead to severe disability. Usually these infections are treated with antibiotics given through the child’s vein for a few days followed by antibiotics given by mouth. This research will find out if giving antibiotics just by mouth works as well as the current treatment. If it does, it would prevent the risks of giving antibiotics through the vein and, importantly, allow children to have all their treatment at home.
