| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the maximal dosage of nebulized amikacin one may administer to patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit and suffering of ventilator associated pneumonia without exceeding the amikacin serum concentrations measured after standard intravenous infusion of amikacin;Primary end point(s): Dose of nebulized amikacin that allows to measure serum amikacin concentrations close to but inferior to those measured after standard intravenous amikacin infusion. ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate safty of nebulized amikacin in intensive care unit patients. To evaluate de potential pulmonary and systemic accumulation of amikacin after repeated nebulizations. To evaluate the clinical benefit of nebulized amikacine compared to intravenous infusion of amikacin. To modelize pulmonary absorption kinetics of nebulized amikacin. | — |
