Brief Summary

Overweight patients are susceptible to develop acute complications when they are admitted in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Severe infection can be associated with cardiovascular failure ('shock") and is associated with 35-50% mortality. One of the key issue to cure infection is to administer antibiotics. However, under dosing antibiotic is one of the main reason that explain treatment failure. There are very few data concerning particularities of antibiotic dosing in critically ill, overweight, patients. The aim of the present study is to describe the pharmacokinetic of two main antibiotics (doripenem and piperacillin/Tazobactam) in both overweight and non overweight critically ill patients presenting a septic shock. The investigators hypothesis is that usual dose for those antibiotic may be accurate in non overweight patients but is not in overweight patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time over MIC (calculated with the E-test) in overweight and non overweight critically ill patients

    up to Day 8

Study Arms (2)

No overweight patient

EXPERIMENTAL

Patient with weight less than or equal to 120kg

Drug: Doripenem or Piperacillin/Tazobactam

Overweight patients

EXPERIMENTAL

Patient with weight more than 120kg

Drug: Doripenem or Piperacillin/Tazobactam

Interventions

This arm is composed of 26 no overweight patients, Antibiotic (Doripenem or Piperacillin/Tazobactam) is chosen by the intensivist in charge of the case: * in 13 no overweight patients, Pipéracilline/tazobactam will be administered in 4g IV (1h) and then 16g/24h IV continuously. Piperacillin/Tazobactam plasma dosage: after the first dose and then every 12h. * in 13 patients no overweight: doripénème will be administered in 1g/8h with a 4h IV infusion. Doripenem plasma dosage: after the first dose and then twice a day, at peak and residual value.
