Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Workshop
This event is co-organised by CRE REDUCE, The University of Queensland and CHU Nîmes.
About Antimicrobial Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Workshop
Strong associations exist between drug exposure and patient outcomes for many antimicrobials. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is an obvious method to apply to ensure more patients achieve effective drug concentrations and should be considered standard-of-care for most antimicrobials. However, there is still uncertainty and inconsistency of practice about which patients would most benefit from TDM, which antimicrobial concentration targets should be used and what methods are feasible and could be applied to effectively change doses. In this workshop, we address these issues as they relate to antibacterials, antifungals and antimycobacterials. We also present new technological advances that improve the feasibility and accuracy of antimicrobial TDM, and specific considerations for key settings including paediatrics and outpatients (and critically ill patients of course!) as well as the place of dosing software. Watch our recordings to hear from leading practitioners and scientists in this area!
