Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Potential effects of continuous veno-venous haemofiltration on single and multiple dose pharmacokinetics of sulfametrole and trimethoprim will be assessed. ;Secondary Objective: Assessment of haemofilter clearance (CLHF) of TMP and SMT;Primary end point(s): Plasma pharmacokinetics TMP and SMT (peak levels [Cmax], trough levels [Cmin], area under the concentration time curve [AUC], half-live [t1/2], volume of distribution [Vd] and clearance [CL]) on and off haemofiltration;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Study day 1 and study day 3 or later
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Haemofilter clearance (CLHF) of TMP and SMT;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Study day 1 and study day 3 or later
