Summary of Research Findings: 1. Patients age, estimated CLcr and recent surgery significantly predicted the Vd and CL of both beta-lactams. Piperacillin and meropenem concentrations were highly-variable with coefficient of variation (COV) of ≥67.7%. Forty-nine patients (58.3%) achieved the PK/PD target and they tend to be older, with slower CLcr
