Filter by:This study is based on the hypothesis that the pharmacokinetics of meropenem and linezolid in severe infectious children are different from mild infectious children and adults. The investigators aim to study the population pharmacokinetics of children receiving the meropenem and linezolid for treatment of severe infectious diseases. In this study, the investigators will detect drug concentration in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid by using residual blood samples of blood and cerebrospinal fluid gas analysis and other clinical tests and employ computers for constructing population pharmacokinetic models. In addition, the investigators also want to correlate use of meropenem and linezolid with treatment effectiveness and incidence of adverse effects in children. This novel knowledge will allow better and more rational approaches to the treatment of severe infectious diseases in children. It will also set the foundation for further studies to improve anti- infective drug therapies for severe infectious children.
