A systematic scoping review of metrics utilized to measure antibiotic consumption in hospital settings

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs were introduced to promote the judicious use of antimicrobials and to combat antimicrobial resistance. Quantifying antibiotic consumption is an important part of AMS initiatives to achieve these objectives.

The enzymes of β-lactam biosynthesis.

, 2013
The β-lactam antibiotics and related β-lactamase inhibitors are amongst the most important small molecules in clinical use. Most, but not all, β-lactams including penicillins, cephalosporins, and clavulanic acid are produced via fermentation or via ...

Evaluating a virtual paediatric adverse drug reaction clinic

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a common problem in paediatric health care. There is limited access to expertise in the evaluation and management of potential ADRs in children, limiting access to these services and creating delays in assessment and management.

Bacteriophage-derived endolysins restore antibiotic susceptibility in β-lactam- and macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae infections.

Streptococcus pneumoniae, the pneumococcus, is a cause of major illness globally. Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is characterized by pneumococci invading blood (bacteremia), lungs (pneumonia), or brain and cerebrospinal fluid (meningitis ...

Relationship between continuous infusion meropenem PK/PD target attainment and C‐reactive protein dynamics in onco‐haematologic patients with febrile neutropenia

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Meropenem is a second‐line antimicrobial agent in the treatment of febrile neutropenia in onco‐haematological patients. A population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis for assessing the relationship between meropenem exposure and C‐reactive protein (C‐RP) over time was conducted.

Extrapolation and pharmacokinetic protocol design optimization for ceftriaxone as an exemplar for the development of antibiotics for children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Ceftriaxone is a cephalosporin commonly used for the treatment of acute, severe infections; however, there are conflicting data on its disposition properties in children, making it a suitable case study for the evaluation of the appropriateness of extrapolation approaches based on exposure matching principles for paediatric patients and exploring ...

Cefepime exposure in prolonged or intermittent infusion in critically ill children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Cefepime is commonly used in critically ill children for whom there is a high between‐subject variability. To reach the therapeutic pharmacokinetic (PK) target in critically ill patients, prolonged infusion of beta‐lactams seems to be the most efficient.
