Lala, A. C. (2016). Variability in neonatal gentamicin administration influencing drug delivery kinetics. Master's thesis, , .
Abstract: Distributes a self-administered questionnaire to Dunedin Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) nurses to investigate: the site of administration, comparing peripheral intravenous line (PIV) or umbilical venous catheter (UVC); and which dose of gentamicin would be used in two clinical scenarios describing babies of 24 and 32-weeks' gestation.
