Schematic representation of the final pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model characterizing the inoculum effect of A. baumannii on PMB bactericidal activity (kPMB). SC, subcutaneous; knet, apparent growth rate constant of bacteria; kslope, kill rate constant due to PMB; kslope,med, kill rate constant for a theoretical starting inoculum of 6 log10 CFU/thigh; kinoc, constant describing the inoculum effect on kslope; Cu, unbound PMB concentration; γ, power parameter for PMB effect.
