Pharmacodynamic studies indicate that anaerobic killing is optimized when the plasma AUC) to MIC ratio is ≥70:1; the probability of achieving this target with 1000mg/d of metronidazole is > 99% against B. fragilis that exhibit MICs < 2mg/L #idsky #medsky #EMIMCC

🆕🔥Retrospective, multicenter, inverse probability-of-treatment weighted cohort study Among hospitalized patients with septic shock, there was no difference between cefepime and piperacillin-tazobactam on the occurrence of severe AKI #idsky #medsky academic.oup.com/cid/advance-...
