Researcher from Ravenna Hospital Details Findings in Antibiotics (Which Are the Best Regimens of Broad-Spectrum Beta-Lactam Antibiotics in Burn Patients? A Systematic Review of Evidence from Pharmacology Studies).

A recent study conducted at Ravenna Hospital in Italy examined the best regimens of broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotics for burn patients. The researchers conducted a systematic review of 35 pharmacology studies and found that high doses and continuous infusion of these antibiotics were necessary to achieve optimal results. The study focused on antibiotics such as meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftazidime, cefepime, imipenem-clinastatin, and aztreonam, while insufficient data were available for newer antibiotics. The researchers concluded that further studies are needed, particularly for newer antibiotics, to better understand their effectiveness in treating burn patients. [Extracted from the article]
