38th Critical Care Congress: Monotherapy Vs Combination Antimicrobial Therapy of Sepsis

During this session, the controversial debate on whether or not combination antimicrobial therapy is more efficacious than monotherapy for gram-negative bacteremia is presented. Although there are theoretical advantages to combination therapy, the data from studies of patients with gram-negative bacteraemias have been conflicting.

  • Dennis G. Maki, MD, examines the evidence that modern monotherpy is sufficient
  • Anand Kumar, MD, FCCM, examines the evidence that combination therapy yields improved outcomes
