Correlation of in vitro time-kill curves and kinetics of bacterial killing in cerebrospinal fluid during ceftriaxone therapy of experimental Escherichia coli meningitis

Ceftriaxone was highly active in eliminating Escherichia coli from the cerebrospinal fluid of rabbits infected with experimental meningitis. However, concentrations equal to or greater than 10 times the minimal bactericidal concentration had to be achieved to ensure optimal efficacy (rate of kill, 1.5 log10 CFU/ml per h). In contrast to other beta-lactams studied in this model, ceftriaxone concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid progressively increased, whereas serum steady state was obtained by constant infusion. The percent penetration was 2.1% after 1 h of therapy, in contrast to 8.9% after 7 h (P less than 0.001). In vitro time-kill curves done in cerebrospinal fluid or broth more closely predicted the drug concentrations required for a maximum cidal effect in vivo than that predicted by determinations of minimal inhibitory or bactericidal concentrations.
