The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of meropenem were investigated in 14 critically ill patients with sepsis. Patients with creatinine clearance (CrCl) higher than 50 ml/min received 1 g meropenem three times daily (Group 1) and patients with CrCl lower than 50 ml/min received 1 g meropenem twice daily (Group II). Meropenum concentrations in plasma were determined by high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. The pharmacokinetic parameters differed between the two groups as follows, Group 1, maximal concentration 56.3 +/- 19.1 mug/ml; trough concentration 3.3 +/- 2.5 mug/ml; elimination half life 2.5 +/- 1.2 h; clearance (Cl) 155.8 +/- 40.6 ml/min; MRT 2.2 +/- 0.4 h; steady state volume of distribution (V-ss) 21.7 +/- 5.7 l, and AUC(0-8) 119.4 +/- 32.6 mug/ml h. Group II, maximal concentration 71.1 +/- 5.1 mug/ml; trough concentration 3.4 +/- 1.8 mug/ml; elimination half life 3.9 +/- 1.6 h; Cl 77.7 +/- 15.8 ml/min; MRT 3.5 +/- 0.6 h; V-ss, 17.1 +/- 2.1 l, and AUC(0-12) 230.2 +/- 43.3 mug/ml h. The most frequently isolated bacteria from blood and wound infections were Acinetobacter baumanii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia colic their meropenem minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranged from 0.064 to 3.0 mg/l. In most cases the pharmacodynamic parameters, measured as T > MIC index, were higher than 75%. In both groups, patients with susceptible pathogens (MIC <1 mg/l) had meropenem plasma levels which exceeded the MIC for the whole dosing interval. When pathogens were highly resistant (A. baumanii or P. aeruginosa) the T > MIC indices were lower. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. and the International Society of Chemotherapy. All rights reserved.
