Predictors for non-attainment of meropenem target concentrations when treating infections in critically ill patients

CONCLUSION: In addition to the expected risk factors (age and dosage), ARC was a predictor for non-attainment of the target concentration. The risk of non-attainment of target concentrations increased with an increase in creatinine clearance. Attention should be given to ARC and creatinine clearance when administering meropenem by intravenous infusion.PMID:37969092 | DOI:10.5414/CP204412
