Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Ertapenem

The patient received two injections of ertapenem, at a dose of 1g.j-1 by intravenous injection of 30 minutes, separated by 24 h.

Drug: Ertapenem
The patient received two injections of ertapenem, at a dose of 1g.j-1 by intravenous injection of 30 minutes, separated by 24 h.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Measurement of serum concentrations of total ertapenem from the second injection in order to calculate Cmax, Vz, ClP , ClR , ClNR , fe, T1/2b et AUC0 - alpha. [Blood samples 5 min after the end of the second injection and 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h after the start of the second injection]

    Current study the pharmacokinetics (Cmax, Vz, ClP , ClR , ClNR , fe, T1/2beta, AUC 0 - alpha) in a population of burn patients.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Time between injection and observation of a serum concentration less than the critical concentration below [Blood samples 5 min after the end of the second injection and 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h after the start of the second injection]

    Check that the injection of 1 g ertapenem achieves a serum concentration above the critical concentration of bacteria usually isolated in cases of early infection for more than 40% of the time between two injections (t / MIC> 40 %), this ratio being one of the criteria predictive of efficacy of beta-lactam antibiotics.

  2. Time needed between injections in order to obtain a concentration greater than the critical concentration below for the duration of time between two injections [Blood samples 5 min after the end of the second injection and 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h after the start of the second injection]

    Study when two injections of ertapenem serum concentrations fall below the critical concentrations of bacteria usually isolated in cases of early infection, if they become.
