BOV, between-occasion variability.

aBased on sampling importance resampling.

bAll clearances and volumes of distribution were allometrically scaled, and the typical values reported here refer to a child weighing 26 kg.

cThe relationship between CL and AAG is as follows: CLi=8.05(WTi/26)0.75(e)0.582(AAGi0.66), where Weighti, CLi and AAGi are the values of weight, CL and AAG for patient i.
