Reprint of: Does two-step infusion improve the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics target attainment of meropenem in critically Ill patients?

The optimal method for administering meropenem remains controversial. This study was conducted to explore the optimal two-step infusion strategy (TIT), and to investigate whether TIT is superior to intermittent infusion therapy (IIT) and prolonged infusion therapy (PIT). A physiologically based pharmacokinetics model for critically ill patients was established and evaluated.
