Target site pharmacokinetics of doripenem at steady state in intubated intensive care patients - Dori_MD_IC

Phase 1
Conditions
We will carry out the present study to determine concentrations of doripenem in plasma, in the interstitial space fluid of the subcutaneous and muscle tissue and ELF in 20 intubated intensive care patients who get doripenem for therapeutic or prophylactic reasons. Pharmacokinetic parameters will be calculated and used to determine pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic indices to estimate target site activity.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Determination of concentrations of doripenem at steady state in interstitial space fluid of subcutaneous fat, muscle tissue, and ELF in 20 intubated intensive care patients with prescribed doripenem for therapeutic or prophylactic reasons. Tissue and ELF concentrations will be related to corresponding unbound plasma concentrations. ;Secondary Objective: -;Primary end point(s): The time versus unbound doripenem concentration profiles in the interstitial space fluid of non-inflamed subcutaneous adipose tissue, muscle tissue, ELF, and in plasma will be determined.
