In-vitro model for bacterial growth inhibition of compartmentalized infection treated by an ultra-high concentration of antibiotics.

<h4>Background</h4>Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), Escherichia coli (E. coli), and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) are common pathogens encountered in infected cardiovascular-implantable electronic device (CIED). Continuous, in-situ targeted, ultra-high concentration antibiotic...
