Investigation of pharmacokinetics of Ciprofloxacin and Piperacillin/Tazobactam in Patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy

Conditions
Sepsis and acute renal failure (ARF) are two pathological entities that commonly co-exist in patients admitted to intensive care. Antibiotic dosing in septic patients with ARF can be complicated and may result in either underdosing, causing treatment failure and antibiotic resistance, or overdosing resulting in drug toxicity. The aim of this study is to collect pharmacokinetic data for evaluating underdosing or overdosing of ciprofloxacin and piperacillin/tazobactam in RRT.
