The use of antibiotic therapy is common in intensive care units and primarily involves beta-lactams. Its optimal implementation is made difficult by the pharmacokinetic changes inherent in critically ill patients. Despite the current recommendations from the French Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care (SFAR) and the French Society of Pharmacology and Therapeutics (SFPT), there are no recommendations on prescription modalities for patients under veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). The use of antibiotic therapy is common in VA-ECMO patients and their pharmacokinetic variability factors are then exacerbated. We aim to conduct a prospective, multicenter, interventional study designed to identify predictive factors for failure to achieve therapeutic target circulating concentrations of beta-lactams in patients under VA-ECMO treated with one of the studied beta-lactams
