Abstract
People living with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often experience multimorbidity and require polypharmacy. Kidney dysfunction can also alter the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of medications, which can modify their risks and benefits; the extent of these changes is not well understood for all situations or medications. The principle of drug stewardship is aimed at maximizing medication safety and effectiveness in a population of patients through a variety of processes including medication reconciliation, medication selection, dose adjustment, monitoring for effectiveness and safety, and discontinuation (deprescribing) when no longer necessary. This Review is aimed at serving as a resource for achieving optimal drug stewardship for patients with CKD. We describe special considerations for medication use during pregnancy and lactation, during acute illness and in patients with cancer, as well as guidance for the responsible use of over-the-counter drugs, herbal remedies, supplements and sick-day rules. We also highlight inequities in medication access worldwide and suggest policies to improve access to quality and essential medications for all persons with CKD. Further strategies to promote drug stewardship include patient education and engagement, the use of digital health tools, shared decision-making and collaboration within interdisciplinary teams. Throughout, we position the person with CKD at the centre of all drug stewardship efforts.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate as a tool for early identification of patients with insufficient exposure to beta-lactam antibiotics in intensive care units. Infect Dis (Lond) 2024; 56:451-459. [PMID: 38436273 DOI: 10.1080/23744235.2024.2323002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Only about 50% of intensive care unit (ICU) patients reach a free trough concentration above MIC (100% fT > MIC) of beta-lactam antibiotics. Although dose adjustments based on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) could be beneficial, TDM is not widely available. We investigated serum creatinine-based estimated GFR (eGFR) as a rapid screening tool to identify ICU patients at risk of insufficient exposure. METHOD Ninety-three adult patients admitted to four ICUs in southeast Sweden treated with piperacillin/tazobactam, meropenem, or cefotaxime were included. Beta-lactam trough concentrations were measured. The concentration target was set to 100% fT > MICECOFF (2, 4, and 16 mg/L based on calculated free levels for meropenem, cefotaxime, and piperacillin, respectively). eGFR was primarily determined via Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) and compared to three other eGFR equations. Data was analysed using logistic regression and receiver operative characteristic (ROC) curves. RESULTS With intermittent standard dosing, insufficient exposure was common in patients with a relative eGFR ≥48mL/min/1.73m2 [85%, (45/53)], particularly when treated with cefotaxime [96%, (24/25)]. This eGFR cut-off had a sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 82% (AUC 0.871, p < 0.001) in identifying insufficient exposure. In contrast, patients with eGFR <48mL/min/1.73m2 had high target attainment [90%, (36/40)] with a wide variability in drug exposure. There was no difference between the four eGFR equations (AUC 0.866-0.872, cut-offs 44-51 ml/min/1.73m2). CONCLUSION Serum creatinine-based eGFR is a simple and widely available surrogate marker with potential for early identification of ICU patients at risk of insufficient exposure to piperacillin, meropenem, and cefotaxime.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Augmented renal clearance (ARC) holds a risk of subtherapeutic drug concentrations. Knowledge of patient-, disease-, and therapy-related factors associated with ARC would allow predicting which patients would benefit from intensified dosing regimens. This study aimed to identify ARC predictors and to describe ARC time-course in critically ill children, using iohexol plasma clearance (CLiohexol) to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR). METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of data from the "IOHEXOL" study which validated GFR estimating formulas (eGFR) against CLiohexol. Critically ill children with normal serum creatinine were included, and CLiohexol was performed as soon as possible after pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission (CLiohexol1) and repeated (CLiohexol2) after 48-72 h whenever possible. ARC was defined as CLiohexol exceeding normal GFR for age plus two standard deviations. RESULTS Eighty-five patients were included; 57% were postoperative patients. Median CLiohexol1 was 122 mL/min/1.73 m2 (IQR 75-152). Forty patients (47%) expressed ARC on CLiohexol1. Major surgery other than cardiac surgery and eGFR were found as independent predictors of ARC. An eGFR cut-off value of 99 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 140 mL/min/1.73 m2 was suggested to identify ARC in children under and above 2 years, respectively. ARC showed a tendency to persist on CLiohexol2. CONCLUSIONS Our findings raise PICU clinician awareness about increased risk for ARC after major surgery and in patients with eGFR above age-specific thresholds. This knowledge enables identification of patients with an ARC risk profile who would potentially benefit from a dose increase at initiation of treatment to avoid underexposure.

Abstract
Accurate assessment of renal function is of great clinical and scientific importance, as it is an important pharmacokinetic covariate of pivotal drugs. The iohexol clearance is nearly identical to the glomerular filtration rate, but its determination usually requires an intravenous injection and therefore bears intrinsic risks. This motivates to showcase an "en passant" approach to quantification of renal function without additional risk or blood sampling beyond routine care using real-world data. We enrolled 37 intensive care patients who received high doses of iohexol for computed tomography imaging, and quantified series of iohexol plasma concentrations by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-UV). Iohexol clearance was derived by both log-linear regression and nonlinear least squares fitting and compared to glomerular filtration rate estimated by the CKD-EPI-2021 formulas. Nonlinear fitting not only turned out to be more accurate but also more robust in handling the irregularly timed data points. Concordance of iohexol clearance against estimations based on both creatinine and cystatin C showed a slightly higher bias (-3.44 mL/min/1.73 m2) compared to estimations based on creatinine alone (-0.76 mL/min/1.73 m2), but considerably narrower limits of agreement (±42.8 vs. 56 mL/min/1.73 m2) and higher Lin's correlation (0.84 vs. 0.72). In summary, we have demonstrated the feasibility and performance of the "en passant" variant of the iohexol method in intensive care medicine and described a working protocol for its application in clinical practice and pharmacologic studies.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate among intensive care unit survivors: From the removal of race coefficient to cystatin C-based equations. J Crit Care 2024; 79:154450.

Abstract
PURPOSE Black race coefficient used in serum creatinine (sCr)-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculation may perpetuate racial disparities. Among intensive care unit (ICU) survivors, sCr overestimates kidney function due to sarcopenia. Cystatin C (cysC) is a race- and muscle mass-independent eGFR marker. We investigated the impact of removing the race coefficient from sCr-based eGFR and compared cysC- and sCr-based eGFR in ICU survivors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Among 30,920 patients from 2 institutions in the Bronx and Boston, eGFR was calculated at hospital discharge using sCr-based equations with and without race coefficient (eGFRsCr2009 and eGFRsCr2021). In a subset with available cysC between ICU admission and 1-year follow-up, sCr- and cysC-based estimates were compared. RESULTS eGFRsCr2021 was higher than eGFRsCr2009 by a median of 4 ml/min/1.73 m2 among non-Black patients and lower by a median of 8 ml/min/1.73 m2 among Black patients. Removing race coefficient reclassified 12.9% of non-Black subjects and 16.1% of Black subjects to better and worse eGFR category, respectively, and differentially impacted the prevalence of kidney dysfunction between the institutions due to differences in racial composition. Among 51 patients with available cysC (108 measurements), cysC-based estimates were lower than sCr-based estimates (median difference 9 to 16 ml/min/1.73 m2), resulting in reclassification to worse eGFR category in 34% to 53.5% of measurements. CONCLUSIONS Among ICU survivors, removal of race coefficient leads to lower eGFR in Black patients and may contribute to overestimation of kidney function in non-Black patients. While cysC is rarely used, estimates based on this marker are significantly lower than those based on sCr.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute kidney injury is a frequent complication of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We aim to study the evolution of kidney function in patients presenting severe ARDS and requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO). METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study, including adult patients requiring VV ECMO for ARDS. The primary outcome was the evolution of the serum creatinine level after VV ECMO initiation. Secondary outcomes were change in urine output, and urine biochemical parameters after VV ECMO initiation. RESULTS One hundred and two patients were included. VV ECMO was initiated after a median of 6 days of mechanical ventilation, mainly for ARDS caused by COVID-19 (73%). Serum creatinine level did not significantly differ after VV ECMO initiation (P = .20). VV ECMO was associated with a significant increase in daily urine output (+6.6 mL/kg/day, [3.8;9.3] P < .001), even after adjustment for potential confounding factors; with an increase in natriuresis. The increase in urine output under VV ECMO was associated with a reduced risk of receiving kidney replacement therapy (OR 0.4 [0.2;0.8], P = .026). CONCLUSIONS VV ECMO initiation in severe ARDS is associated with an increase in daily urine output and natriuresis, without change in glomerular filtration rate.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Creatinine-based GFR estimating (eGFRcr) equations may be inaccurate in populations with acute or chronic illness. The accuracy of GFR equations that use cystatin C (eGFRcys) or creatinine-cystatin C (eGFRcr-cys) is not well studied in these populations. Study Design A systematic review of original articles identified from PubMed and expert sources. Two reviewers screened articles independently and identified those meeting inclusion criteria. Setting & Study Populations Adults and children with acute or chronic illness. Selection Criteria for Studies Studies published since 2011 that compared performance of eGFRcr, eGFRcys, and eGFRcr-cys relative to measured GFR (mGFR), used standardized assays for creatinine or cystatin C, and used eGFR equations developed using such assays. Studies of ambulatory clinical populations or research studies in populations with only CKD, kidney transplant recipients, only diabetes, kidney donor candidates, and community-based cohorts were excluded. Data Extraction Data extracted from full text. Analytical Approach Bias and percentages of estimates within 30% of mGFR (P30) of eGFR compared with mGFR were evaluated. Results Of the 179 citations, 26 studies met the inclusion criteria: 24 in adults and 2 in children in clinical populations with cancer (n=5), HIV (n=5), cirrhosis (n=3), liver transplant (n=3), heart failure (n=2), neuromuscular diseases (n=1) critical illness (n=5), and obesity (n=2). In general, eGFRcr-cys had greater accuracy than eGFRcr or eGFRcys equations among study populations with cancer, HIV, and obesity, but did not perform consistently better in cirrhosis, liver transplant, heart failure, neuromuscular disease, and critical illness. Limitations Participants were selected because of concern for inaccurate eGFRcr, which may bias results. Most studies had small sample sizes, limiting generalizability. Conclusions eGFRcr-cys improves GFR estimation in populations with a variety of acute and chronic illnesses, providing indications for cystatin C measurement. Performance was poor in many studies, suggesting the need for more frequent mGFR. Plain-Language Summary Kidney function, specifically glomerular filtration rate (GFR), estimated using creatinine (eGFRcr) is often inaccurate in people with acute and chronic illness. The accuracy of estimates using cystatin C alone (eGFRcys) or together with creatinine (eGFRcr-cys) is not well studied in these populations. We conducted a systematic review to address the knowledge gap. Of the 179 papers reviewed, we identified 26 studies in clinical populations with cancer (n=5); HIV (n=5); cirrhosis (n=3); liver transplant (n=3); heart failure (n=2); neuromuscular disease (n=1); critical illness (n=5); and obesity (n=2). In general, eGFRcr-cys improved the GFR estimation in HIV, cancer, and obesity, providing indications for cystatin C measurement. Performance was poor in many studies, suggesting the need for more frequent measured GFR.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Meropenem dosing is typically guided by creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), but creatinine is a suboptimal GFR marker in the critically ill. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop and qualify a population pharmacokinetic model for meropenem in critically ill adults and to determine which eGFR equation based on creatinine, cystatin C, or both biomarkers best improves model performance. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This single-center study evaluated adults hospitalized in an ICU who received IV meropenem from 2018 to 2022. Patients were excluded if they had acute kidney injury, were on kidney replacement therapy, or were treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Two cohorts were used for population pharmacokinetic modeling: a richly sampled development cohort (n = 19) and an opportunistically sampled qualification cohort (n = 32). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES A nonlinear mixed-effects model was developed using parametric methods to estimate meropenem serum concentrations. RESULTS The best-fit structural model in the richly sampled development cohort was a two-compartment model with first-order elimination. The final model included time-dependent weight normalized to a 70-kg adult as a covariate for volume of distribution (Vd) and time-dependent eGFR for clearance. Among the eGFR equations evaluated, eGFR based on creatinine and cystatin C expressed in mL/min best-predicted meropenem clearance. The mean (se) Vd in the final model was 18.2 (3.5) liters and clearance was 11.5 (1.3) L/hr. Using the development cohort as the Bayesian prior, the opportunistically sampled cohort demonstrated good accuracy and low bias. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Contemporary eGFR equations that use both creatinine and cystatin C improved meropenem population pharmacokinetic model performance compared with creatinine-only or cystatin C-only eGFR equations in adult critically ill patients.

The Difference Between Cystatin C- and Creatinine-Based Estimated GFR in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: Insights From PARADIGM-HF. Am J Kidney Dis 2023; 82:521-533. [PMID: 37086965 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2023.03.005] [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: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 04/24/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE The clinical implications of the discrepancy between cystatin C (cysC)- and serum creatinine (Scr)-estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are unknown. STUDY DESIGN Post-hoc analysis of randomized trial data. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 1,970 patients with HFrEF enrolled in PARADIGM-HF with available baseline cysC and Scr measurements. EXPOSURE Intraindividual differences between eGFR based on cysC (eGFRcysC) and Scr (eGFRScr; eGFRdiffcysC-Scr). OUTCOMES Clinical outcomes included the PARADIGM-HF primary end point (composite of cardiovascular [CV] mortality or HF hospitalization), CV mortality, all-cause mortality, and worsening kidney function. We also examined poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL), frailty, and worsening HF (WHF), defined as HF hospitalization, emergency department visit, or outpatient intensification of therapy between baseline and 8-month follow-up. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Fine-Gray subdistribution hazard models and Cox proportional hazards models were used to regress clinical outcomes on baseline eGFRdiffcysC-Scr. Logistic regression was used to investigate the association of baseline eGFRdiffcysC-Scr with poor HRQoL and frailty. Linear regression models were used to assess the association of WHF with eGFRcysC, eGFRScr, and eGFRdiffcysC-Scr at 8-month follow-up. RESULTS Baseline eGFRdiffcysC-Scr was higher than +10 and lower than-10mL/min/1.73m2 in 13.0% and 35.7% of patients, respectively. More negative values of eGFRdiffcysC-Scr were associated with worse outcomes ([sub]hazard ratio per standard deviation: PARADIGM-HF primary end point, 1.18; P=0.008; CV mortality, 1.34; P=0.001; all-cause mortality, 1.39; P<0.001; worsening kidney function, 1.31; P=0.05). For a 1-standard-deviation decrease in eGFRdiffcysC-Scr, the prevalences of poor HRQoL and frailty increased by 29% and 17%, respectively (P≤0.008). WHF was associated with a more pronounced decrease in eGFRcysC than in eGFRScr, resulting in a change in 8-month eGFRdiffcysC-Scr of-4.67mL/min/1.73m2 (P<0.001). LIMITATIONS Lack of gold-standard assessment of kidney function. CONCLUSIONS In patients with HFrEF, discrepancies between eGFRcysC and eGFRScr are common and are associated with clinical outcomes, HRQoL, and frailty. The decline in kidney function associated with WHF is more marked when assessed with eGFRcysC than with eGFRScr. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY Kidney function assessment traditionally relies on serum creatinine (Scr) to establish an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, this has been challenged with the introduction of an alternative marker, cystatin C (cysC). Muscle mass and nutritional status have differential effects on eGFR based on cysC (eGFRcysC) and Scr (eGFRScr). Among ambulatory patients with heart failure enrolled in PARADIGM-HF, we investigated the clinical significance of the difference between eGFRcysC and eGFRScr. More negative values (ie, eGFRScr>eGFRcysC) were associated with worse clinical outcomes (including mortality), poor quality of life, and frailty. In patients with progressive heart failure, which is characterized by muscle loss and poor nutritional status, the decline in kidney function was more pronounced when eGFR was estimated using cysC rather than Scr.

Real-Time TDM-Based Expert Clinical Pharmacological Advice Program for Attaining Aggressive Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Target of Continuous Infusion Meropenem in the Treatment of Critically Ill Patients with Documented Gram-Negative Infections Undergoing Continuous Veno-Venous Hemodiafiltration. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:1524. [PMID: 37887225 PMCID: PMC10604776 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12101524] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Objectives: to describe the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile of continuous infusion (CI) meropenem in critical patients with documented Gram-negative infections undergoing continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) and to assess the relationship with microbiological outcome. (2) Methods: Data were retrospectively retrieved for patients admitted to the general and the post-transplant intensive care units in the period October 2022-May 2023 who underwent CVVHDF during treatment with CI meropenem optimized by means of a real-time therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)-based expert clinical pharmacological advice (ECPA) program for documented Gram-negative infections. Steady-state meropenem plasma concentrations were measured, and the free fractions (fCss) were calculated. Meropenem total clearance (CLtot) was calculated at each TDM assessment, and the impact of CVVHDF dose intensity and of residual diuresis on CLtot was investigated by means of linear regression. Optimal meropenem PK/PD target attainment was defined as an fCss/MIC ratio > 4. The relationship between meropenem PK/PD target attainment and microbiological outcome was assessed. (3) Results: A total of 24 critical patients (median age 68 years; male 62.5%) with documented Gram-negative infections were included. Median (IQR) meropenem fCss was 19.9 mg/L (17.4-28.0 mg/L). Median (IQR) CLtot was 3.89 L/h (3.28-5.29 L/h), and median (IQR) CVVHDF dose intensity was 37.4 mL/kg/h (33.8-44.6 mL/kg/h). Meropenem dosing adjustments were provided in 20 out of 24 first TDM assessments (83.3%, all decreases) and overall in 26 out of the 51 total ECPA cases (51.0%). Meropenem PK/PD target attainment was always optimal, and microbiological eradication was achieved in 90.5% of assessable cases. (4) Conclusion: the real-time TDM-guided ECPA program was useful in attaining aggressive PK/PD targeting with CI meropenem in critically ill patients undergoing high-intensity CVVHDF and allowed microbiological eradication in most cases with dosing regimens ranging between 125 and 500 mg q6h over 6 h.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) can develop after intravascular administration of iodinated contrast media. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is an early marker for AKI that helps to detect subclinical CA-AKI. We investigated the incidence of and risk factors for clinical and subclinical CA-AKI in patients who underwent neuroendovascular surgery. METHODS We retrospectively investigated 228 patients who underwent neuroendovascular surgery in 2020. Changes in serum creatinine and urine output were used to detect clinical CA-AKI. Urine NGAL concentration was used to detect subclinical CA-AKI in 67 out of 228 patients. RESULTS In 228 patients, serum creatinine, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) decreased significantly (p < 0.001) after surgery. However, serum creatinine decreased less significantly (p < 0.05) than hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein, and BUN on postoperative Day 3. Two patients out of 228 developed clinical CA-AKI, and seven patients out of 67 with urine NGAL measurements developed subclinical CA-AKI. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that diabetes mellitus and carotid artery stenosis were significantly (p < 0.05) associated with the development of clinical and/or subclinical CA-AKI. CONCLUSION There was a large difference between the incidences of clinical CA-AKI (0.88%) and subclinical CA-AKI (10.4%). The difference might have primarily resulted from the different sensitivities between serum creatinine and urine NGAL and possibly from underestimation of the incidence of clinical AKI due to a postoperative decrease in serum creatinine caused by hemodilution. In addition to diabetes mellitus, carotid artery stenosis could also be a risk factor for CA-AKI.

Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:1289. [PMID: 37627709 PMCID: PMC10451857 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12081289] [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: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 07/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to describe pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment in intensive care unit (ICU) patients treated with continuously infused ß-lactam antibiotics, their associated covariates, and the impact of dosage adjustment. METHODS This prospective, observational, cohort study was performed in three ICUs. Four ß-lactams were continuously infused, and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) was performed at days 1, 4, and 7. The primary pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target was an unbound ß-lactam plasma concentration four times above the bacteria's minimal inhibitory concentration during the whole dosing interval. The demographic and clinical covariates associated with target attainment were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 170 patients were included (426 blood samples). The percentages of empirical ß-lactam underdosing at D1 were 66% for cefepime, 43% for cefotaxime, 47% for ceftazidime, and 14% for meropenem. Indexed creatinine clearance was independently associated with treatment underdose if increased (adjusted odds ratio per unit, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.01; p = 0.014) or overdose if decreased (adjusted odds ratio per unit, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.94 to 0.97; p < 0.001). Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment was significantly increased after ß-lactam dosage adjustment between day 1 and day 4 vs. no adjustment (53.1% vs. 26.2%; p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS This study increases our knowledge on the optimization of ß-lactam therapy in ICU patients. A large inter- and intra-patient variability in plasmatic concentrations was observed, leading to inadequate exposure. A combined indexed creatinine clearance and TDM approach enables adequate dosing for better pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment.

Development of a Predictive Dosing Nomogram to Achieve PK/PD Targets of Amikacin Initial Dose in Critically Ill Patients: A Non-Parametric Approach. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:antibiotics12010123. [PMID: 36671324 PMCID: PMC9854650 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12010123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
French guidelines recommend reaching an amikacin concentration of ≥8 × MIC 1 h after beginning infusion (C1h), with MIC = 8 mg/L for probabilistic therapy. We aimed to elaborate a nomogram guiding clinicians in choosing the right first amikacin dose for ICU patients in septic shock. A total of 138 patients with 407 observations were prospectively recruited. A population pharmacokinetic model was built using a non-parametric, non-linear mixed-effects approach. The total body weight (TBW) influenced the central compartment volume, and the glomerular filtration rate (according to the CKD-EPI formula) influenced its clearance. A dosing nomogram was produced using Monte Carlo simulations of the amikacin amount needed to achieve a C1h ≥ 8 × MIC. The dosing nomogram recommended amikacin doses from 1700 mg to 4200 mg and from 28 mg/kg to 49 mg/kg depending on the patient's TBW and renal clearance. However, a Cthrough ≤ 2.5 mg/L 24 h and 48 h after an optimal dose of amikacin was obtained with probabilities of 0.20 and 0.81, respectively. Doses ≥ 30 mg/kg are required to achieve a C1h ≥ 8 × MIC with MIC = 8 mg/L. Targeting a MIC = 8 mg/L should depend on local ecology.

Glomerular filtration rate in critically ill neonates and children: creatinine-based estimations versus iohexol-based measurements. Pediatr Nephrol 2023; 38:1087-1097. [PMID: 35916956 PMCID: PMC9925555 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-022-05651-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) and augmented renal clearance (ARC), both alterations of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), are prevalent in critically ill children and neonates. AKI and ARC prevalence estimates are based on estimation of GFR (eGFR) using serum creatinine (SCr), which is known to be inaccurate. We aimed to test our hypothesis that AKI prevalence will be higher and ARC prevalence will be lower in critically ill children when using iohexol-based measured GFR (mGFR), rather than using eGFR. Additionally, we aimed to investigate the performance of different SCr-based eGFR methods. METHODS In this single-center prospective study, critically ill term-born neonates and children were included. mGFR was calculated using a plasma disappearance curve after parenteral administration of iohexol. AKI diagnosis was based on the KDIGO criteria, SCr-based eGFR, and creatinine clearance (CrCL). Differences between eGFR and mGFR were determined using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and by calculating bias and accuracy (percentage of eGFR values within 30% of mGFR values). RESULTS One hundred five children, including 43 neonates, were included. AKI prevalence was higher based on mGFR (48%), than with KDIGO or eGFR (11-40%). ARC prevalence was lower with mGFR (24%) compared to eGFR (38-51%). eGFR equations significantly overestimated mGFR (60-71 versus 41 ml/min/1.73 m2, p < 0.001-0.002). Accuracy was highest with eGFR equations based on age- and sex-dependent equations (up to 59%). CONCLUSION Iohexol-based AKI prevalence was higher and ARC prevalence lower compared to standard SCr-based eGFR methods. Age- and sex-dependent equations for eGFR (eGFR-Smeets for neonates and eGFR-Pierce for children) best approached measured GFR and should preferably be used to optimize diagnosis of AKI and ARC in this population. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

[PMID: 36294481 PMCID: PMC9605446 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11206159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
In patients with acutely changing kidney function, equations used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) must be adjusted for dynamic changes in the concentrations of filtration markers (kinetic eGFR, KeGFR). The aim of our study was to evaluate serum creatinine-based KeGFR in patients in the early phase of acute pancreatitis (AP) as a marker of changing renal function and as a predictor of AP severity. We retrospectively calculated KeGFR on day 2 and 3 of the hospital stay in a group of 147 adult patients admitted within 24 h from the onset of AP symptoms and treated in two secondary-care hospitals. In 34 (23%) patients, changes in serum creatinine during days 1-3 of the hospital stay exceeded 26.5 µmol/L; KeGFR values almost completely differentiated those with increasing and decreasing serum creatinine (area under receiver operating characteristic curve, AUROC: 0.990 on day 3). In twelve (8%) patients, renal failure was diagnosed during the first three days of the hospital stay according to the modified Marshall scoring system, which was associated with significantly lower KeGFR values. KeGFR offered good diagnostic accuracy for renal failure (area under receiver operating characteristic-AUROC: 0.942 and 0.950 on days 2 and 3). Fourteen (10%) patients developed severe AP. KeGFR enabled prediction of severe AP with moderate diagnostic accuracy (AUROC: 0.788 and 0.769 on days 2 and 3), independently of age, sex, comorbidities and study center. Lower KeGFR values were significantly associated with mortality. Significant dynamic changes in renal function are common in the early phase of AP. KeGFR may be useful in the assessment of kidney function in AP and the prediction of AP severity.

Augmented renal clearance in the ICU: estimation, incidence, risk factors and consequences-a retrospective observational study. Ann Intensive Care 2022; 12:88. [PMID: 36156744 PMCID: PMC9510087 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-022-01058-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Augmented renal clearance (ARC) remains poorly evaluated in ICU. The objective of this study is to provide a full description of ARC in ICU including prevalence, evolution profile, risk factors and outcomes. Methods This was a retrospective, single-center, observational study. All the patients older than 18 years admitted for the first time in Medical ICU, Bichat, University Hospital, APHP, France, between January 1, 2017, and November 31, 2020 and included into the Outcomerea database with an ICU length of stay longer than 72 h were included. Patients with chronic kidney disease were excluded. Glomerular filtration rate was estimated each day during ICU stay using the measured creatinine renal clearance (CrCl). Augmented renal clearance (ARC) was defined as a 24 h CrCl greater than 130 ml/min/m2. Results 312 patients were included, with a median age of 62.7 years [51.4; 71.8], 106(31.9%) had chronic cardiovascular disease. The main reason for admission was acute respiratory failure (184(59%)) and 196(62.8%) patients had SARS-COV2. The median value for SAPS II score was 32[24; 42.5]; 146(44%) and 154(46.4%) patients were under vasopressors and invasive mechanical ventilation, respectively. The overall prevalence of ARC was 24.6% with a peak prevalence on Day 5 of ICU stay. The risk factors for the occurrence of ARC were young age and absence of cardiovascular comorbidities. The persistence of ARC during more than 10% of the time spent in ICU was significantly associated with a lower risk of death at Day 30. Conclusion ARC is a frequent phenomenon in the ICU with an increased incidence during the first week of ICU stay. Further studies are needed to assess its impact on patient prognosis.

J Am Soc Nephrol 2022; 33:1277-1292. [PMID: 35474022 PMCID: PMC9257816 DOI: 10.1681/asn.2021101326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The evidence from individual studies to support the maturational pattern of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in healthy term-born neonates is inconclusive. We performed an individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis of reported measured GFR (mGFR) data aimed to establish neonatal GFR reference values. Furthermore, we aimed to optimise neonatal creatinine-based GFR estimations Methods: We identified studies reporting mGFR measured by exogenous markers or creatinine clearance (CrCL) in healthy term-born neonates. The relationship between postnatal age and clearance was investigated using cubic splines with generalized additive linear mixed models. From our reference values, we estimated an updated coefficient for the Schwartz equation (eGFR(ml/min/1.73m2)=(k*height (cm))/serum creatinine(mg/dl)). Results: Forty-eight out of 1521 screened articles reported mGFR in healthy term-born neonates, and 978 mGFR values from 881 neonates were analysed. IPD were available for 367 neonates and the other 514 neonates were represented by 41 aggregated data points as means/medians per group. GFR doubled in the first five days after birth from 19.6 (95%CI 14.7;24.6) ml/min/1.73m2 to 40.6 (95%CI 36.7;44.5) ml/min/1.73m2, then more gradually increased to 59.4 (95%CI 45.9;72.9) ml/min/1.73m2 by four weeks of age. A coefficient of 0.31 to estimate GFR best fitted the data. Conclusions: These reference values for healthy term-born neonates show a biphasic increase in GFR with the largest increase between days 1 and 5. Together with the re-examined Schwartz equation, this can help identify altered GFR in term-born neonates. To enable widespread implementation of our proposed eGFR equation, validation in a large cohort of neonates is required.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in critically ill patients. Estimation of renal function and antibiotics dose adjustment in patients with AKI is a challenging issue. Methods Urinary creatinine clearance was measured in a 6-hour urine collection from patients with acute kidney injuries. The correlations between different formulas including the modified Cockcroft-Gault, modification of diet in renal disease, chronic kidney disease-epidemiology collaboration, Jelliffe, kinetic-glomerular filtration rate (GFR), Brater, and Chiou formulas were considered. The pattern of the prescribed antimicrobial agents was also compared with the patterns in the available resources. Results Ninety-five patients with acute kidney injuries were included in the research. The mean age of the participants was 63.11±17.58 years old. The most patients (77.89%) were in stage 1 of AKI according to the Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria, followed by stage 2 (14.73%) and stage 3 (7.36), respectively. None of the formulations had a high or very high correlation with the measured creatinine clearance. In stage 1, Chiou (r=0.26), and in stage 2 and 3, kinetic-GFR (r=0.76 and r=0.37) had the highest correlation coefficient. Antibiotic over- and under-dosing were frequently observed in the study. Conclusions The results showed that none of the static methods can predict the measured creatinine clearance in the critically ill patients. The dynamic methods such as kinetic-GFR can be helpful for patients who do not receive diuretics and vasopressors. Further studies are needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
Purpose This trial was conducted to compare effects of continuing versus withholding single-pill combination tablets consisting of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and calcium channel blockers (CCBs) on perioperative hemodynamics and clinical outcomes. Methods Patients undergoing minor abdominal or urological surgery (n = 106) were randomly assigned to Group C, in which ARB/CCB combination tablets were continued until surgery, or Group W, in which they were withheld within 24 h of surgery. Perioperative hemodynamics and clinical outcomes were compared between the Groups. Results The incidence of hypotension during anesthesia requiring repeated treatment with vasoconstrictors was higher in Group C than Group W (p = 0.0052). Blood pressure during anesthesia was generally lower in Group C than Group W (p < 0.05) despite significantly more doses of ephedrine and phenylephrine administrated in Group C (p = 0.0246 and p = 0.0327, respectively). The incidence of postoperative hypertension did not differ between Groups (p = 0.3793). Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on the preoperative day did not differ between Groups (p = 0.7045), while eGFR was slightly lower in Group C than Group W on the first and third postoperative days (p = 0.0400 and p = 0.0088, respectively), although clinically relevant acute kidney injury did not develop. Conclusions Continuing ARB/CCB combination tablets preoperatively in patients undergoing minor surgery increased the incidence of hypotension during anesthesia, increased requirements of vasoconstrictors to treat hypotension, and might deteriorate postoperative renal function, albeit slightly. These results suggest that withholding ARB/CCB tablets preoperatively is preferable to continuing them. Clinical trial registration This trial is registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT) at Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (Trial ID: jRCT1031190027).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical applicability of urinary creatinine clearance (CrCl) for determining the initial dose of vancomycin (VCM) in critically ill patients and to assess VCM trough plasma concentration/maintenance daily dose (C/D) ratio in patients with augmented renal clearance (ARC). METHODS As the primary outcome measure, correlations between estimated renal function and the VCM C/D ratio were compared using the following formulas: CrCl, Cockcroft-Gault equation (eCrClC-G) and KineticGFR equation (KeGFR). Patients were divided into those with or without changes in renal function. The patients were further classified based on the presence or absence of ARC. The secondary outcome was the comparison of VCM C/D ratio between ARC and Non-ARC patients. RESULTS A total of 65 patients were enrolled for analysis. In all groups, CrCl tended to correlate better with the VCM C/D ratio than eCrClC-G and KeGFR. A significantly lower VCM C/D ratio was observed in patients with persistent ARC than in the Non-ARC group (0.24 versus 0.52 kg/L). CONCLUSIONS The clinical applicability of CrCl for the initial dosing design of VCM in critically ill patients was shown. Furthermore, the results indicated that patients with persistent ARC required a higher VCM dose than Non-ARC patients. Although our findings are limited, they have a value for further verification.

Abstract
Background The clinical use of serum creatine (sCr) and cystatin C (CysC) in kidney function evaluation of critically ill patients has been in continuous discussion. The difference between estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated by sCr (eGFRcr) and CysC (eGFRcysc) of critically ill COVID-19 patients were investigated in this study. Methods This is a retrospective, single-center study of critically ill patients with COVID-19 admitted in intensive care unit (ICU) at Wuhan, China. Control cases were moderate COVID-19 patients matched in age and sex at a ratio of 1:1. The eGFRcr and eGFRcysc were compared. The association between eGFR and death were analyzed in critically ill cases. The potential factors influencing the divergence between eGFRcr and eGFRcysc were explored. Results A total of 76 critically ill COVID-19 patients were concluded. The mean age was 64.5 ± 9.3 years. The eGFRcr (85.45 (IQR 60.58–99.23) ml/min/1.73m2) were much higher than eGFRcysc (60.6 (IQR 34.75–79.06) ml/min/1.73m2) at ICU admission. About 50 % of them showed eGFRcysc < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 while 25% showed eGFRcr < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (χ2 = 10.133, p = 0.001). This divergence was not observed in moderate group. The potential factors influencing the divergence included serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) level as well as APACHEII, SOFA scores. Reduced eGFRcr (<60 mL/min/1.73 m2) was associated with death (HR = 1.939, 95%CI 1.078–3.489, p = 0.027). Conclusions The eGFRcr was generally higher than eGFRcysc in critically ill COVID-19 cases with severe inflammatory state. The divergence might be affected by inflammatory condition and illness severity. Reduced eGFRcr predicted in-hospital death. In these patients, we advocate for caution when using eGFRcysc.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the clinical usefulness of the biomarker TIMP-2•IGFBP7 in adult, general medical-surgical intensive care unit (ICU) settings. DATA SOURCES PubMed (1946 to mid-February 2021) and EMBASE (1947 to mid-February 2021) with bibliographies of retrieved articles reviewed for additional articles. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Studies evaluating use of the urinary TIMP-2•IGFBP7 assay in adult patients in ICU settings. DATA SYNTHESIS Studies published after investigations leading to TIMP-2•IGFBP7 assay approval confirm the appropriateness of considerations discussed in product labeling, such as use of the test within 12 hours of assessment, use of a dichotomous 0.3 (ng/mL)2/1000 cutoff, and use only in combination with other assessments of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, as a biomarker routinely used for early identification of patients at risk for AKI in mixed ICU populations, the additional resources required for TIMP-2•IGFBP monitoring are difficult to justify because of limited data demonstrating usefulness in preventing or ameliorating AKI and its attendant complications. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE Biomarkers are potentially useful not only for assessment and diagnosis of AKI, but also for practitioners involved in the management of nephrotoxic medications and medications needing adjustment for decreased kidney function. CONCLUSIONS Although there is evidence to suggest that the urinary TIMP-2•IGFBP7 biomarker is helpful in predicting AKI progression in general medical-surgical ICU patients when used within 12 hours of patient assessment in combination with routine testing, including serum creatinine and urine output, there is little evidence that its use leads to improvements in clinically important patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To discuss methods for the assessment of creatinine clearance (Clcr) when serum creatinine (SCr) is not at steady state in order to estimate kidney function and apply the estimate to kidney function staging for clinical assessment or drug dosing. DATA SOURCES A PubMed search was conducted from 1976 to mid-January 2021 with other articles identified through review of bibliographies of retrieved articles and citations in Scopus. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Articles assessing Clcr under non-steady-state conditions and studies evaluating predictive equations were selected. DATA SYNTHESIS When SCr is systematically changing (ie, trending up or down), kinetic methods to estimate Clcr are appropriate. Estimates from kinetic methods should be individual based and not indexed to body surface area, and careful monitoring is required to confirm predictions as the situation evolves. Standard methods intended for steady-state conditions should not be used to estimate Clcr in patients with unstable SCr. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE Creatinine continues to be a monitoring parameter of choice and is an important variable in all the commonly used equations for estimating Clcr and most important for estimating glomerular filtration rate. However, standard methods of estimating Clcr for medication dosing are not accurate under non-steady-state conditions. CONCLUSION The methods for kinetic clearance estimation and standards methods for clearance estimation, such as the Cockcroft-Gault equation, are mutually exclusive. There are no benefits of using the kinetic method in patients with stable SCr concentrations, and standard equations are not appropriate with unstable SCr concentrations.

Abstract
Early initiation of effective antibiotic therapy is vitally important for saving the lives of critically ill patients with sepsis or septic shock. The susceptibility of the infecting pathogen and the ability of the selected dosage regimen to safely achieve the required antibiotic exposure need to be carefully considered to achieve a high probability of a successful outcome. Critically ill patients commonly experience substantial pathophysiological changes that impact the functions of various organs, including the kidneys. Many antibiotics are predominantly renally eliminated and thus renal function is a major determinant of the regimen needed to achieve the required antibiotic exposure. However, currently, there is a paucity of guidelines to inform antibiotic dosing in critically ill patients, including those with sepsis or septic shock. This paper briefly reviews methods that are commonly used in critically ill patients to provide a measure of renal function, and approaches that describe the relationship between the exposure to an antibiotic and its antibacterial effects. Two common conditions that very substantially complicate the use of antibiotics in critically ill patients with sepsis, unstable renal function, and augmented renal clearance, are considered in detail and their potential therapeutic implications are explored. Suggestions are provided on how treatment of bacterial infections in critically ill patients with sepsis might be improved. Of high potential are model-informed approaches that aim to individualize initial treatment regimens based on patient and bacterial characteristics, with refinement of regimens during treatment in response to monitoring antibiotic concentrations, responsive measures of renal function, and other important clinical data.
