meropenem (or corresponding placebos)

You can do this at home!• Select infection site
• Select target organisms and MICs
• Select antibiotics
• Find PK/PD data in literature
• Find penetration and protein binding data
• Do the arithmetic23

Something for the journey home?
• Am I recommending adequate doses of colistin?
• When is the last time I recommended co-trimoxazole for a skin/soft tissue infection or a chest infection?
• Have we implemented continuous infusions of beta-lactams on our ICU?
• Thank you for listening!
