Lactobacillus GG in the Prevention of Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit: A Prospective Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo Controlled Intervention
Results of this pilot study indicate that LGG is safe and could potentially reduce the incidence of AAD in the critically ill pediatric patients at this academic institution. Our findings suggest clinicians should consider the use of LGG in appropriate PICU patients.
