Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Correlation between the β-lactam dosage measured by the MON4STRAT method and the β-lactam dosage measured by the HPLC-MS-MS (the reference method).at 3 days
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
User's questionnaireat 3 days

The feasibility of the MON4STRAT method will be evaluated by a questionnaire to be completed by the users of the method, that is, the nurses caring for these patients.

Volume of distribution of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusion

Pharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics

Assessment of the course of infection of children who had a β-lactam assay (by the reference method) at the usual levels and those who appeared to receiving inadequate β-lactam doses.at 17 days

Antimicrobial doses, serum concentration of β- lactams and minimum inhibitory concentration of microorganisms, if available, will be used to assess the potential usefulness of this bedside method
