The role of anesthesiologists in the selection and administration of perioperative antibiotics: a survey of the American Association of Clinical Directors.

abstract：:The dynamics of IV drug delivery resulting from drug infusions connected to main-line crystalloid carriers can be complex and depend on infusion set dead-volume, drug flow rate, and carrier flow rate. While the concept of dead-volume is intuitive, a lack of appreciation of the interaction with the carrier and drug flo...
