Pharmacokinetics of Nebulized Amikacin in Patients With Pneumonia Undergoing Mechanical Ventilation

NCT00861315

RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindTreatment

Summary

Inclusion of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation and presenting a pneumonia in order to determine serum pharmacokinetics of nebulized amikacin. The primary aim is to determine the dose of amikacin to be nebulized in order to observe amikacin serum concentrations close to but inferior to those observed after standart intravenous amikacin infusion.
