Summary

About 70% of critically ill patients require antiinfective therapy. Optimal antibiotic dosing is key to improve patient survival, reduce toxic effects and minimise the emergence of bacterial resistance. There is a growing body of evidence demonstrating the existence of significant changes in pharmacokinetics (PK) in intensive care patients, particularly those with extracorporeal therapy (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT)). To characterize the effects of extracorporal therapy for critically ill patients, we designed a prospective pilot observational study using a drug monitoring to derive relevant effects of extracorporeal therapy and clinical patient characteristics for the treatment with meropenem, teicoplanin, linezolid, piperacillin/tazobactam, levofloxacin and acyclovir.
