Meropenem
Merrem I.V.
Presentation
- When subjected to meropenem, they presented retraction of the cytoplasmic material, rupture of the cell wall and extravasation of the cytoplasmic content.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- We present two cases administering intravenous (IV) meropenem and ticarcillin-clavulanate by CI in pediatric CF patients.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- A case is presented of a breast-feeding mother receiving meropenem treatment for a postpartum urinary tract infection caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- We present a case of a neurosurgical patient who developed ventriculoperitoneal shunt-associated ventriculitis due to ceftazidime-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae susceptible to cefepime, imipenem, meropenem, and polymyxin B only.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- We present three cases administering intermittent extended infusion doripenem in pediatric CF patients for the treatment of an APE in the case of replacing meropenem due to shortage.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
Intravenous Administration
- administration 30 mL (1g meropenem) injection vial for intravenous administration 100 mL (500mg meropenem) vial: powder for reconsitution for intravenous administration 100 mL (1g meropenem) vial: powder for reconsitution for intravenous administration[antimicrobe.org]
- METHODS: AMK-I ELF exposures and the ELF profile of meropenem achieved after intravenous administration were evaluated in an in vitro pharmacodynamic model. Nine ACBN with amikacin/meropenem MICs of 2-512/2 to 64 mg/L were utilized.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Meropenem for injection is a sterile, pyrogen-free, synthetic, ultra-broadspectrum , Carbapenem antibiotic for intravenous administration.[srspharma.com]
- administration is associated with lower mortality than bolus intravenous infusion in persons with whose infections are severe, or caused by bacteria that are less sensitive to meropenem, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [9] [10] Side effects [ edit ][en.wikipedia.org]
Intravenous Drugs
- The peripheral veins of intravenous drug addicts, and of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, become sclerotic and difficult to access over time, sometimes forming a hard, painful “venous cord”. [ edit ] Infiltration occurs when an IV fluid or medication[en.wikipedia.org]
Neurologic
Learning Difficulties
- The patient, who had a background of dialysis dependent renal failure, epilepsy and learning difficulties, was admitted to the intensive care unit following laparotomy and large bowel resection.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Serum
Hypertriglyceridemia
- Thereafter, the possibility that antibiotics may have had a role in the hypertriglyceridemia was considered, and meropenem was discontinued.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
- 1 2 Recruiting Treatment Complicated Urinary Tract Infections / Pyelonephritis 1 2 Recruiting Treatment Other Infectious Diseases 1 2 Recruiting Treatment Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB) 1 2 Terminated Treatment Infections, Intestinal 1 2 Terminated Treatment[drugbank.ca]
- Actinomycetomas can cause profound disability, and despite long-term chemotherapy, treatment failure is common. We investigated the efficacy of a novel drug regimen for the treatment of a severe case of Nocardia actinomycetoma of the leg.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- During ceftazidime treatment of the wild-type strain (PAO1), fully resistant mutants overproducing AmpC were selected rapidly and they completely replaced wild-type cells in the population.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The delivery of beta-lactam antibiotics via intermittent extended infusion should be considered in order to optimize the pharmacodynamics of beta-lactams in the treatment of an APE.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
- Incidence, risk and prognosis factors of nosocomial pneumonia in mechanically ventilated patients. Am Rev Respir Dis 1990 ;142:523-52. [ Links ] Address to correspondence Dr. Carlos R. V.[scielo.br]
- Optimal treatment requires rapid bactericidal activity within the CSF, because delayed CSF sterilization is associated with a poor prognosis and a high risk of sequelae in children ( 19 ).[aac.asm.org]
Etiology
- This case highlights above all a primary etiology of HS is stimulus of immune system's over-reaction in HS to the bacterial microbiome.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- It is difficult to identify a single etiology of the seizures.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- However, many etiologies have been reported,and several drugs have been implicated.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- P. aeruginosa was the etiological agent in 3 cases (27.3%), though the susceptibility was tested in only 1 isolate. S. aureus was the etiological agent in 2 cases (18.2%), 1 case susceptible to meropenem.[scielo.br]

Pathophysiology
- This thoroughly updated Third Edition covers newly approved drugs, has separate chapters on drugs affecting fungal and viral infections, and includes more pathophysiology information.[books.google.ro]
- Severe pathophysiological changes in critical illness can lead to dramatically altered antimicrobial pharmacokinetics (PK). The additional effect of obesity on PK potentially increases the challenge for effective dosing.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
- For the treatment outcome, including the prevention of resistance development, it would be beneficial for the antibiotic concentration to remain above the mutant prevention concentration for a longer period of time than it does in present regimens.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The objective of these studies was to identify the concentrations of both agents associated with the selection or prevention of single-step mutations leading to reduced sensitivity to the combination and to characterize the selected mutations.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
