| Session Title | Therapeutic Drug Monitoring – Now and into the Future |
| Date | 16 August 2025 |
| Time | 1130 – 1300hrs |
| Venue | Singapore EXPO |
| Format | 50mins didactic lecture, 20mins panel discussion, 15mins accepted abstracts |
| Introduction | ICU clinicians face the daily challenge of optimising and individualising doses of anti-infective agents – not only to improve clinical outcomes for individual patients but also to attempt to decrease resistance more generally. This session brings together world-renowned experts to review Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) of antibiotics and antifungals. Through both didactic lectures and a panel discussion, we will explore current best practice, challenges, and what the future holds for TDM of anti-infective agents. The Pharmacy SHARE programme will conclude with abstract presentations from selected pharmacists. |
