A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Comparative Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Levofloxacin and Standard of Care Therapy in the Treatment of Children With Community-Acquired Pneumonia in the Hospitalized or Outpatient Setting
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of levofloxacin in the treatment of children with community acquired pneumonia.
Conditions: Pneumonia.
Primary outcome: Clinical cure rate (cured or not cured) at 10-17 days after the last dose of study medication..
Enrollment: 691 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 691 participants or records.
