Official Title: Risk Factors for Beta-lactam Target Non Attainment in Critically Ill Patients

Brief Summary: Beta-lactams agents are time-dependent antibiotics.Their bactericidal effects are associated with the time spent above the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the bacteria.In ICU patients, many pathophysiological changes may occur, which significantly alter beta-lactam pharmacokinetics (increasing in distribution volume, hypoalbuminemia or change in glomerular filtration rate…), leading to antibiotic underexposure, which may explain some treatment failures and risk of emergence of a multi-resistant…
