Clinical Trial Summary

The object of the study is to investigate whether all included patients receive treatment that is effective against all bacteria that are defined as sensitive to meropenem with the current treatment regimen. Will the investigators findings motivate routine monitoring of plasma concentrations in children receiving meropenem? Up to 50 patients will be included in the study, and all participants are children.
