Cefiderocol Pharmacokinetics in a Patient Receiving Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration

Abstract

Abstract Antimicrobial dosing in patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy is a continued clinical challenge. We describe a case of a patient receiving cefiderocol 2 g intravenously every 8 hours as a 3-hour infusion for a multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia and bacteremia while undergoing continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration. The clinical course and cefiderocol pharmacokinetics are described.
