Abstract
The increasing number of infections caused by multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria in children is a serious problem all over the world. Ceftazidim-avibactam is a promising antimicrobial drug recently approved in Russia for use in pediatric practice. This review provides information on the possible use of ceftazidime-avibactam in children with complicated intraabdominal infections (in combination with metronidazole); complicated urinary tract infections, including pyelonephritis; hospital-acquired pneumonia, including ventilator-associated pneumonia; infections caused by aerobic gram-negative microorganisms in patients with limited choice of antibacterial therapy. Based on the data on the in vitro activity of the drug, the results of clinical studies of pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of ceftazidimeavibactam for the treatment of infections in children the main clinical cases in which the use of ceftazidimeavibactam in pediatric practice is most justified and appropriate are identified.
