Résumé

Background: The aims of this study were to describe pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment in intensive care unit (ICU) patients treated with continuously infused ß-lactam antibiotics, their associated covariates, and the impact of dosage adjustment. Methods: This prospective, observational, cohort study was performed in three ICUs. Four ß-lactams were continuously infused, and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) was performed at days 1, 4, and 7. The primary pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target was an unbound ß-lactam plasma concentration four times above the bacteria’s minimal inhibitory concentration during the whole dosing interval. The demographic and clinical covariates associated with target attainment were evaluated. Results: A total of 170 patients were included (426 blood samples). The percentages of empirical ß-lactam underdosing at D1 were 66% for cefepime, 43% for cefotaxime, 47% for ceftazidime, and 14% for meropenem. Indexed creatinine clearance was independently associated with treatment underdose if increased (adjusted odds ratio per unit, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.01; p = 0.014) or overdose if decreased (adjusted odds ratio per unit, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.94 to
