Concentrations were estimated at the 12-h sampling time (last sample showing growth suppression [Fig. 1]). Regrowth started at some time between the 12- and 24-h sampling times.
The magnitude of CT is expressed as less than or equal to the stated value, as estimates were made at 12 h, whereas regrowth occurred between 12 and 24 h (Fig. 1).
CT was estimated at 18 to 20 h, as the 2-h sampling times allowed greater precision in identifying the time at which regrowth occurred (Fig. 2). However, the declining avibactam concentrations were modeled rather than measured in this experiment (23), and so the estimate of CT is approximate.
