Research and application of personalized treatment of severe infec-tion patients with Meropenem based on TDM
Severe infection is a significant threat to patient safety and survival.As the main treat-ment for hospital acquired infections,meropenem is limited in its effectiveness due to the emergence of drug resistance,especially after long-term use of antibiotics.Therefore,optimizing the efficacy of an-tibiotics such as meropenem and avoiding microbi-al resistance has become an urgent issue to be ad-dressed.Therapeutic drug monitoring(TDM),as an important tool for achieving personalized drug ad-ministration,is increasingly recognized as an impor-tant strategy for optimizing antibiotic concentra-tion,avoiding treatment failure and toxicity in criti-cally ill patients and patients with renal insufficien-cy.By reviewing the current application status,pharmacokinetics,and TDM guidance of meropen-em,clinical references are provided for the treat-ment of critically ill patients and patients with renal insufficiency,and guidance and support are provid-ed for optimizing antibiotic treatment.
