Monitoring antibiotic levels in intensive care patients with sepsis
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests a method to check antibiotic levels in the blood of very sick patients with sepsis. The goal is to see if adjusting the dose based on these levels helps recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have sepsis (a severe infection with organ problems).
- You are being treated with a beta-lactam antibiotic (like penicillin or similar).

This trial checks if giving higher doses of beta-lactam antibiotics (a type of strong antibiotic) right from the start helps people in the ICU with septic shock. It aims to find the best dose to fight the infection quickly.
This study looks at how doctors can better monitor antibiotic levels in the blood of intensive care patients with severe infections (sepsis or septic shock). The goal is to see if adjusting antibiotic doses based on these levels improves recovery.
This trial tests a new way to quickly measure antibiotic levels in the blood of ICU patients, so doctors can adjust the dose for each person. It aims to make antibiotic therapy more effective and safer.
This trial tests a computer tool to help doctors choose the right antibiotic for sepsis early on. It may help improve treatment by providing personalized recommendations based on your condition.
This trial tests whether a quick genetic test can help doctors choose the right treatment for patients with a suspected severe infection (sepsis) more quickly. The goal is to improve recovery by personalizing care based on your body's response.
This trial tests a type of antibiotic called aminoglycosides to treat early sepsis (a serious infection). It is for adults in the hospital who are sick enough to need strong antibiotics but not in the worst stage of the illness.
