[PMID: 37564179 PMCID: PMC10410082 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1137975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives: Augmented renal clearance (ARC) is a state of enhanced renal function commonly observed in 30%-65% of critically ill patients despite normal serum creatinine levels. Using unadjusted standard dosing regimens of renally eliminated drugs in ARC patients often leads to subtherapeutic concentrations, poor clinical outcomes, and the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. We summarized pharmaceutical, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic research on the definition, underlying mechanisms, and risk factors of ARC to guide individualized dosing of antibiotics and various strategies for optimizing outcomes. Methods: We searched for articles between 2010 and 2022 in the MEDLINE database about ARC patients and antibiotics and further provided individualized antibiotic dosage regimens for patients with ARC. Results: 25 antibiotic dosage regimens for patients with ARC and various strategies for optimization of outcomes, such as extended infusion time, continuous infusion, increased dosage, and combination regimens, were summarized according to previous research. Conclusion: ARC patients, especially critically ill patients, need to make individualized adjustments to antibiotics, including dose, frequency, and method of administration. Further comprehensive research is required to determine ARC staging, expand the range of recommended antibiotics, and establish individualized dosing guidelines for ARC patients.

Current Aspects of Pediatric Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Antimicrobials in Japan: Importance of the Promotion of Population PK/PD Analysis. Pediatr Infect Dis J 2022; 41:e418-e423. [PMID: 35763684 DOI: 10.1097/inf.0000000000003622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Pharmacologic knowledge is important for pediatricians conducting feasible pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) studies or applying effective antimicrobial therapies in children. Because of the difficulties in conducting PK/PD studies in children, antimicrobial PK/PD data in children are still limited. To fill in the lack of knowledge, promotion of population PK/PD analysis, which allows us to handle sparse sampling data from individual patients, is important because it is considered a suitable methodology to conduct PK/PD studies in children with limited blood drug concentration data for PK/PD analysis. Population PK/PD analysis is also useful in the clinical setting to provide individualized optimal dosage for each patient with various conditions. Here we summarized the current aspects of pediatric PK/PD studies of antimicrobials in Japan from clinical and research perspectives, specifically focusing on the importance of population PK/PD analysis.

Imburgia TA, Kussin ML. A Review of Extended and Continuous Infusion Beta-Lactams in Pediatric Patients. J Pediatr Pharmacol Ther 2022; 27:214-227. [PMID: 35350159 DOI: 10.5863/1551-6776-27.3.214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Intravenous beta-lactam antibiotics are the most prescribed antibiotic class in US hospitalized patients of all ages; therefore, optimizing their dosing is crucial. Bactericidal killing is best predicted by the time in which beta-lactam drug concentrations are maintained above the organism's minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), rather than achievement of a high peak concentration. As such, administration of beta-lactam antibiotics via extended or continuous infusions over a minimum of 3 hours, rather than standard infusions over approximately 30 minutes, has been associated with improved achievement of pharmacodynamic targets and improved clinical outcomes in adult medical literature. This review summarizes the pediatric medical literature. Applicable studies include pharmacodynamic models, case series, retrospective analyses, and prospective studies on the use of extended infusion and continuous infusion penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams in neonates, infants, children, and adolescents. Specialized patient populations with unique pharmacokinetics and high-risk infections (neonates, critically ill, febrile neutropenia, cystic fibrosis) are also reviewed. While more studies are needed to confirm prospective clinical outcomes, the current body of evidence suggests extended and continuous infusions of beta-lactam antibiotics are well tolerated in children and improve achievement of pharmacokineticpharmacodynamic targets with similar or superior clinical outcomes, particularly in infections associated with high MICs.

Matsuo Y, Matsumoto S, Wajima T, Matsubara K. Pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation for dose rationale of doripenem in neonates and infants. Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2020; 35:145-150. [PMID: 31969257 DOI: 10.1016/j.dmpk.2019.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Revised: 09/25/2019] [Accepted: 10/15/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
The aims of this study were to construct a population pharmacokinetic model of doripenem in neonates and infants and to assess the dosing regimen for patients <3 months of age using Monte-Carlo pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PKPD) simulations. In the population pharmacokinetic analysis using 187 plasma concentrations from 47 neonates and infants, a two-compartment model well described plasma doripenem concentrations with the most significant covariates of chronological age and gestational age identified for the pharmacokinetics of doripenem. Monte-Carlo simulations suggested that the selected dosages for neonates and infants based on chronological age and gestational age (5 or 10 mg/kg) would provide ≥90% target attainment of 40%fT>MIC against MIC of 2 μg/mL in all age groups. These results would be useful for understanding the PKPD characteristics of doripenem, which could provide essential information on optimal therapeutic treatment for neonates and infants.
