Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05, and highly significant values had a significance of p < 0.01. 3 Results 3.1 Characteristics of patients at enrollment and clinical infection A total of 23 critically ill patients who received PMB for XDR-GNB infections were enrolled in this study, of whom 17 were elderly patients and the other 6 were young patients.
The patients with AUC ss, 0–24 h more than 100 mg·h/L were older than patients with AUC ss, 0–24 h less than 50 mg·h/L ( p = 0.059) and had lower CrCl than patients with AUC ss, 0–24 h ranging from 50 to 100 mg·h/L ( p = 0.061) ( Figure 2 ), but the p values did not reach statistical significance.
