in line with recommendations by Nichols and Condon and mentioned by the author of the letter&#46; This recommendation has been fundamentally supported by numerous recent publications&#44; including randomized studies&#44;

This happens&#44; for example&#44; if you choose to infuse 1500&#8201;mg of metronidazole&#44; 1&#8201;g of vancomycin or 240&#8201;mg of gentamicin&#46; The study by Classen et al&#46; from 1992<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> established the hour prior to the incision as the ideal time for antibiotic infusion&#46;
