E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Study inclusion criteria: 1) Age 18 years 2) Sepsis or septic shock according to the Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3)1: 1. Sepsis - life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection; that is suspected or documented infection and an acute increase of ≥2 SOFA points (a proxy for organ dysfunction) 2. Septic shock - sepsis with persisting hypotension requiring vasopressors to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) ≥65mmHg and having a serum lactate level >2 mmol/L despite adequate volume resuscitation. 3) Antibacterial treatment with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid in the dose of 1.2g every 8 hours prescribed by the treating physician 4) Informed consent given by the patient or next of kin Arterial catheter in place on clinical indication |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Study exclusion criteria: 1) Necessity of renal replacemen??t therapy 2) History of allergic reaction to amoxicillin or other penicillins 3) Absence of an arterial catheter Absence of informed consent |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Pharmakokinetic parameters of IMPs (T1/2; Cmax, Cmin, AUC0-8, T above MIC; serum and tissue concentrations) |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Blood samples for amoxicillin and clavulanic acid plasma concentration measurements will be drawn before and immediately after the end amoxicillin/clavulanic acid infusion and 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 hours after the start of the 2nd and 5th dose administration. Microdialysis. Two baseline samples will be taken before the second and fifth planned amoxicillin/clavulanic acid dose. Microdialysis samples will be collected as follows: approximately 20, 40 min, 1, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0 and 8 h after the start of the 2nd and 5th dose administration. Urine samples will be taken 2 hours, 4 hours and 8 hours after administration of the 2nd and 5th dose of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Adequacy of plasma and tissue concentrations in relation to MIC of causative pathogens |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
