Type of endpoint/s
Safety/efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Priori power analysis to determine number of participants required - Based on previous cefazolin levels in knee tissue after intraosseous administration

Mean cefazolin concentrations of tissue samples will be calculated with confidence intervals and standard deviations

Significance and repeated-measures analysis of variance will be used to compare cefazolin concentrations
