What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To analyze biofilm obtained from at least 10 Subjects who have an indwelling catheter.

    the proteomics, metabolomics and metagenomics ("omics") data will be analyzed and integrated in order to understand the microbial population dynamics and the interactions with the human subject host responses which may include antibacterial defenses, local inflammation, immune tolerance towards bacteria

    Measured: Over a period of 20 weeks
