Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Clinical and microbiological evidence of a MDR infection related to HAP, VAP, cUTI or BSI.
* The pathogen should be resistant to almost all antibiotics, AND/OR intermediate resistant to some of the antibiotics, AND/OR susceptible only to a class of antibiotic (i.e. aminoglycosides which are NOT recommended as monotherapy), AND/OR the clinician decision is to start the patient on polymyxin B due to severity of the infection.
* Patient with a diagnosis of MDR infection, who have not received antibiotics at all; OR if received would be \< 72 hours with polymyxin B or imipenem at/or after the diagnosis of MDR AND/OR at the time of randomization
* Have a life expectancy of \> 24 hours according to the attending physician's criteria.
Exclusion Criteria
* Prisoners
* Severe hepatic failure (defined by serum conjugated bilirubin \> 3 mg/dL)
* End-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis
* Hypersensitivity to any study drug
* Septic shock at the moment of randomization
* Died within 48 hours of starting the study
