Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the impact of the implementation of an antimicrobial therapeutic monitoring program in the reduction of days until clinical cure compared to the usual management of antibiotic therapy without a therapeutic monitoring program.;Secondary Objective: a. To determine the cost-effectiveness of a Linezolid and Meropenem monitoring program in critically ill patients. b. To evaluate the stay in the ICU and the hospital stay between both treatment arms. c. Evaluate crude mortality and 30-day mortality between both treatment arms. d. To evaluate the proportion of patients who achieve an optimal PK / PD index for each antibiotic in each of the treatment arms. and. Identify the profile of patients and the type of infection that can benefit the most from dose monitoring programs F. To assess the frequency of medication-related toxicity and adverse events between the two treatment arms.;Primary end point(s): Clinical response - Clinical healing. Disappearance of ALL symptoms and signs of infection present before starting treatment. - Failure. Symptoms and signs of infection present before starting treatment do not change or worsen) - Recurrence. Improvement or disappearance of symptoms and signs of infection present before starting treatment with subsequent reappearance or worsening during follow-up.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 30 days At ICU discharge At hospital discharge | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Microbiological response - Eradication. Absence of growth of the causative microorganism present before starting treatment. - Persistence Isolation of the same microorganism after completing the treatment without having achieved eradication. - Recurrence Isolation of the same microorganism after completing the treatment after having reached an apparent eradication, - Superinfection Isolation of a pathogenic microorganism different from the causative agent of the original infection.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 30 days At ICU discharge At hospital discharge | — |
