Optimal Dosing of <strong>Piperacillin</strong>-<strong>Tazobactam</strong> for Treatment of<br />

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections: Prolonged or Continuous <strong>Infusion</strong>?<br />

Conclusions<br />

31<br />

Both prolonged- and continuous-infusion strategies<br />

improved PDs over traditional 30-minute intermittentinfusion<br />

regimens<br />

Prolonged- and continuous infusion regimens containing<br />

same daily doses had similar likelihoods of bactericidal<br />

exposure<br />

<strong>Piperacillin</strong>-<strong>Tazobactam</strong> for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infection:<br />

Clinical Implications of an <strong>Extended</strong>-<strong>Infusion</strong> Dosing Strategy<br />

Purpose<br />

32<br />

Explore ways to optimize PDs of first-line antipseudomonal<br />

β-lactams to improve outcomes (patient survival, duration<br />

of hospitalization) associated with P. aeruginosa infection<br />

Design<br />

Population PK modeling & PD Monte Carlo simulation<br />

comparing dosing schemes to assess probability of<br />

achieving 50% fT>MIC vs P. aeruginosa.<br />

Potential Ways of Maximizing T>MIC<br />

Higher dose<br />

Increase dosing frequency<br />

Increase duration of infusion (prolonged)<br />

Increased duration of infusion (continuous)<br />
