Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Unbound concentration of ertapenem and meropenem in fatty tissue and peritoneal fluid

    within 24 h after administration

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Adverse Events (total and per patient)

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3 weeks

  • Number of Serious Adverse Events (total and per patient)

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3 weeks

  • Number of Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs)

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Ertapenem

EXPERIMENTAL

Free tissue kinetics of ertapenem in fatty tissue and intraperitoneal fluid in mg/L Free and bound plasma concentration of ertapenem or meropenem in mg/L

Procedure: microdialysis catheter

Meropenem

EXPERIMENTAL

Free tissue kinetics of meropenem in fatty tissue and intraperitoneal fluid in mg/L up to 24 hours after administration. Free and bound plasma concentration of meropenem in mg/L.

Procedure: microdialysis catheter

Interventions

Placing of microdialysis catheter in fatty tissue and in the peritoneal cavity

Ertapenem

Eligibility Criteria

  • systemic antimicrobial therapy with ceftazidime (internal standard of high-performance liquid chromatography / mass spectrometry) within a 7 days period prior to study entry
  • ongoing intraabdominal infections
  • terminal illness
  • severe diseases of the liver, e.g. cirrhosis of the liver with ALT or AST \> 6 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and bilirubin \> 3 x ULN
  • severe renal insufficiency with a creatinine clearance ≤30 mL/min.
  • neutrophil count \< 1000 cells/mm3
  • platelets \< 75000 cells/mm3
  • coagulation studies (INR) \> 1.5 x ULN
  • ongoing chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy
  • ongoing therapy with valproin acid (in case of ertapenem administration).
