Antibacterial drugs are facing increasing limitations in terms of effectiveness due to emergence resistance. Improved antibacterial drug monitoring approaches are particularly needed in nosocomial infections occurring in ICU patients, including ventilator-associated pneumonia and ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis, where decreased susceptibility of the etiological organisms is observed worldwide and pharmacokinetic alterations frequently observed.
No routine drug monitoring is available for betalactams at the point of care in a useful time frame (i.e., within a few hours after having collected the blood specimens).
The purpose of this study is to compare MON4STRAT approach for reaching and maintaining a meropenem pre-determined PK-PD target when compared to conventional meropenem dose.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| To document the superiority of the MON4STRAT approach for reaching and maintaining a meropenem pre-determined PK-PD target when compared to conventional therapies. | The proportion of time from day 1 after randomization to end of therapy (EOT) in which the free meropenem trough concentration in serum was maintained above 8 mg/L or above 4 x MIC if antibiotic MIC > 2 and ≤ 8 mg/L, without exceeding 140 mg/L at peak level, as determined by a method of reference (HPLC). | During meropenem treatment: Day1 to Day 7 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical and microbiological response rates | Test of cure (TOC) visit (7 to 10 days after last study drug infusion) | |
| Time to LRT bacterial eradication, as assessed by follow-up cultures of ETA | Days 3, 5, 7 of treatment and at the end of treatment (EOT) visit |
