Critical Illness, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
Conditions
Brief summary
The posaconazole pharmacokinetic in critically ill patients will be studied in a prospective, non-interventional, monocentric observational trial.
Detailed description
The posaconazole pharmacokinetic in critically ill patients will be studied in a prospective, non-interventional, monocentric observational trial. Plasma specimens will be retrieved on consecutive days (max. 7 days) in order to measure posaconazole levels during the treatment episode.
Interventions
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring is performed by measuring posaconazole concentrations in serum on seven consecutive days (anticipated).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Posaconazole Drug Exposure | seven days from therapystart | Measurement of posaconazole concentration in serum |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
