Inclusion criteria

* Age younger than 18 years * Newborns (preterm or not) in neonatal intensive care * Infants, children, and adolescents in pediatric intensive care * Clinically suspected or microbiologically proven sepsis that might be associated with ventilator-associated pneumonia or otherwise associated with health care * Need for antibiotic treatment by piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftazidime, or meropenem of intermittent administration * Informed consent form signed by parents/guardian * Informed consent form signed by patients old enough to understand.

Exclusion criteria

* Process for active limitation of treatment underway * Suspected or known hypersensitivity to studied beta-lactams * Renal failure, defined as serum creatinine \> 1.5 mg/dl or urine production \< 0.3 ml/kg for 24 h or anuria for 12 h. * Co-administration of two β-lactam antibiotics * Cystic fibrosis * No national health insurance coverage in French center * Family unable to understand study-related information due to language or other communication issues * No consent obtained

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation between the β-lactam dosage measured by the MON4STRAT method and the β-lactam dosage measured by the HPLC-MS-MS (the reference method).at 3 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Minimum concentration of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusionPharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics
Maximum concentration (CMax) of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusionPharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics
Clearance (Cl) of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusionPharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics
User's questionnaireat 3 daysThe feasibility of the MON4STRAT method will be evaluated by a questionnaire to be completed by the users of the method, that is, the nurses caring for these patients.
Half-life (t1/2) of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusionPharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics
Assessment of the course of infection of children who had a β-lactam assay (by the reference method) at the usual levels and those who appeared to receiving inadequate β-lactam doses.at 17 daysAntimicrobial doses, serum concentration of β- lactams and minimum inhibitory concentration of microorganisms, if available, will be used to assess the potential usefulness of this bedside method
Volume of distribution of beta-lactams antibioticsbefore antibiotic infusion at day 3 and 2/3 hours after the end of antibiotic infusionPharmacokinetic of beta-lactams antibiotics
