Completed
Conditions

Critical Illness
Registration Number
NCT03438981
Lead Sponsor
Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven
Brief Summary

WP2.1. PK/PD target attainment Plasma exposure ELF exposure WP2.2. Predictive dosing algorithm WP2.3. ECMO subset

Detailed Description

First, the investigators will document exposure to ceftriaxone in plasma and epithelial lining fluid.

Second, the investigators will try to identify risk factors for not attaining PK/PD target. Based on significant predictors for target non attainment a predictive dosing algorithm will be constructed.

Finally in a small subset of ECMO patients PK exposure will be explored.
