NCT04426383 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 32

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Therapeutic drug monitoring of antibiotics in critically ill patients is a present research topic of the last ten years. Research results have shown subtherapeutic blood concentrations in those patients. However, the amount of antibiotics in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients with ventriculitis or meningitis is still unclear. This study is a prospective study to evaluate the concentration of different antibiotics in the CSF in patients with an external ventricular drainage compared to antibiotic blood concentration.
