21 What about stability? Meropenem less stable than doripenem More degradation with increased temperature and concentration Meropenem probably should be restricted to 3h infusions Berthoin K. J Antimicrob Chemother Feb 2010 Hot Topics on Infections in the Critically Ill Patient, ESCMID Postgraduate Education Course.31 May - 01 June 2013, Athens

22 Possible advantages and disadvantages of continuous/long infusion vs bolus Administrations method Advantages Disadvantages Continuous / long infusion Predictable PK Requires education Lower daily dose may be effective Less time consuming for pharmacist / nurse Requires infusion pumps Issues of stability Bolus Simple Unpredictable PK Less likely failure / error Neurological side-effects probably more common Modified from Abdul-Aziz MH.

41 Conclusions Prolonged infusion of carbapenems may be more effective for the treatment of infections by multidrug resistant gram negative bacteria in critically ill patients Loading dose for colistin improves efficacy A combination of colistin and carbapenem may be of benefit in difficult to treat infections in critically ill patients Hot Topics on Infections in the Critically Ill Patient, ESCMID Postgraduate Education Course.31 May - 01 June 2013, Athens
