Resistant subpopulations with reduced expression of outer membrane porins have been observed in ESBL-producing Escherichia coli during exposure to ertapenem. The aim of this work was to develop a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) model to characterize the emergence of resistant E. coli during exposure to ertapenem and to predict bacterial killing following different dosing regimens of ertapenem.
