Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Evaluation of Doripenem in Critically Ill Trauma Patients With Sepsis at Grady Health System
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Doripenem for Sepsis. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The study hypothesis is to measure how the drug doripenem is cleared from the body of critically ill trauma patients. The investigators will measure blood drug concentrations and calculate how much the drug distributes in the body and how fast it is removed from the body. There is little information on how drugs are cleared in critically ill patients and the wrong dose of a drug could make it ineffective. The investigators will use this information to predict the most reasonable dose to treat infections effectively in these patients.
