Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of ertapenem in the blood over time between hemodialysis session.

Detailed description

After a hemodialysis session, subject will be administered ertapenem and the amount of ertapenem in the blood will be measured at seven time periods before the initiation of the next hemodialysis session.
