Continuous meropenem infusion for critically ill patients with sepsis Antibiotics have a time-dependent effect on bacteria; maintaining bacteriocidal concentrations of antibiotics should help subdue infections better than intermittent dosing. Mortality was about 30% in each group, and most patients had hospital-acquired sepsis.

I went to the chart and found that the patient was a sepsis patient with hypotension and a K of 3.0. So we did a bedside cardiac ultrasound. I was reading EKGs on the system before a shift, and saw this one: What do you think? I was worried that the ST depression and T-wave inversion in V2 and V3 might be posterior OMI.

Diagnosis can be confirmed with ultrasound (for deep vein thrombosis) or CT angiography (CTA) chest (for pulmonary embolism) and patients treated with anticoagulants. This may also predispose a patient to sepsis, peritonitis, or bowel infarction, which need to be recognized quickly. 2020 Sep;127(10):1269-1279.

The core of the conference is, no doubt, ultrasound, especially because Philippe has been at the forefront of point of care ultrasound in the intensive care unit. Therefore, there will be much ultrasound learning during hands-on workshops, in addition to the large library of digital offerings to supplement the face-to-face component.
