Abstract
INTRODUCTION Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is one of the most widely used blood purification and organ support methods in the ICU. However, the development process, the current status, hotspots, and future trends of CRRT remain unclear. METHOD The WoSCC database was used to analyze CRRT research evolution and theme trends. VOSviewer was used to construct coauthorship, co-occurrence, co-citation, and network visualizations. CiteSpace is used to detect bursts for co-occurrence items. Several important subtopics were reviewed and discussed in more detail. RESULTS Global publications increased from 56 in 2000 to 398 in 2023, a 710.71% increase. Blood Purification published the most manuscripts, followed by the International Journal of Artificial Organs. The USA, the San Bortolo Hospital, and Bellomo were the most productive and impactful institution, country, and author, respectively. Based on co-occurrence cluster analysis, five clusters emerged: (1) clinical applications and management of CRRT; (2) sepsis and CRRT; (3) CRRT anticoagulant management; (4) CRRT and antibiotic pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics; and (5) comparison of CRRT and intermittent hemodialysis. COVID-19, initiation, ECOMO, cefepime, guidelines, cardiogenic shock, biomarker, and outcome were the latest high-frequency keywords or strongest bursts, indicating the emerging frontiers of CRRT. CONCLUSIONS There has been widespread publication and citation of CRRT research in the past 2 decades. We provide an overview of current trends, global collaboration patterns, basic knowledge, research hotspots, and emerging frontiers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To determine appropriate dosing of piperacillin-tazobactam in critically ill patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). METHODS The databases of PubMed, Embase, and ScienceDirect were searched. We used the Medical Subject Headings of "piperacillin-tazobactam," "CRRT," and "pharmacokinetics" or related terms or synonym to identify the studies for reviews. A one-compartment pharmacokinetic model was conducted to predict piperacillin levels for the initial 48 h of therapy. The pharmacodynamic target was 50% of free drug level above the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and 4 times of the MIC. The dose that achieved at least 90% of the probability of target attainment was defined as an optimal dose. RESULTS Our simulation study reveals that the dosing regimen of piperacillin-tazobactam 12 g/day is appropriate for treating Pseudomonal infection with KDIGO recommended effluent rate of 25-35 mL/kg/h. The MIC values of each setting were an important factor to design piperacillin-tazobactam dosing regimens. CONCLUSION The Monte Carlo simulation can be a useful tool to evaluate drug dosing in critically ill acute kidney injury patients receiving CRRT when limited pharmacokinetic data are a concern. Clinical validation of these results is needed.

Abstract
Critically ill patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) often present with or develop renal dysfunction requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) in addition to antimicrobial therapy. While early and appropriate antimicrobials for sepsis have been associated with an increased probability of survival, adequate dosing is also required in these patients. Adequate dosing of antimicrobials refers to dosing strategies that achieve serum drug levels at the site of infection that are able to provide a microbiological and/or clinical response while avoiding toxicity from excessive antibiotic exposure. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is the recommended strategy to achieve this goal, however, TDM is not routinely available in all ICUs and for all antimicrobials. In the absence of TDM, clinicians are therefore required to make dosing decisions based on the clinical condition of the patient, the causative organism, the characteristics of RRT, and an understanding of the physicochemical properties of the antimicrobial. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of antimicrobials can be highly variable between critically ill patients and also within the same patient over the course of their ICU stay. The initiation of RRT, which can be in the form of intermittent hemodialysis, continuous, or prolonged intermittent therapy, further complicates the predictability of drug disposition. This variability highlights the need for individualized dosing. This review highlights the practical considerations for the clinician for antimicrobial dosing in critically ill patients receiving RRT.

Abstract
MB-102 is a novel fluorescent tracer agent that is exclusively removed from the body by glomerular filtration. This agent can be detected transdermally to provide a real-time measurement of glomerular filtration rate at the point-of-care and is currently in clinical studies for such. MB-102 clearance during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is unknown. Its plasma protein binding (~0%), molecular weight (~372 Da) and volume of distribution (15-20 L) suggest that it may be removed by renal replacement therapies. To determine the disposition of MB-102 during CRRT, an in vitro study assessing the transmembrane clearance (CL TM ) and adsorptive clearance of MB-102 was conducted. A validated in vitro bovine blood continuous hemofiltration (HF) and continuous hemodialysis (HD) models were performed using two types of hemodiafilters to evaluate CL TM of MB-102. For HF, three different ultrafiltration rates were evaluated. For HD, four different dialysate flow rates were evaluated. Urea was used as a control. No MB-102 adsorption to the CRRT apparatus or either of hemodiafilters was observed. MB-102 is readily removed by HF and HD. Dialysate and ultrafiltrate flow rates directly influence MB-102 CLTM. Hence MB-102 CLTM should be measurable for critically ill patients receiving CRRT.

Front Pediatr 2022; 10:868513. [PMID: 35558367 PMCID: PMC9087830 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.868513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Dosing recommendations for anti-infective medicines in children with pre-existing kidney dysfunction are derived from adult pharmacokinetics studies and adjusted to kidney function. Due to neonatal/pediatric age and kidney impairment, modifications in renal clearance and drug metabolism make standard anti-infective dosing for children and neonates inappropriate, with a risk of drug toxicity or significant underdosing. The aim of this study was the systematic description of the use of anti-infective medicines in pediatric patients with pre-existing kidney impairment. Methods A systematic review of the literature was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The EMBASE, Medline and Cochrane databases were searched on September 21st, 2021. Studies in all languages reporting data on pre-defined outcomes (pharmacokinetics-PK, kidney function, safety and efficacy) regarding the administration of anti-infective drugs in children up to 18 years with pre-existing kidney dysfunction were included. Results 29 of 1,792 articles were eligible for inclusion. There were 13 case reports, six retrospective studies, nine prospective studies and one randomized controlled trial (RCT), reporting data on 2,168 pediatric patients. The most represented anti-infective class was glycopeptides, with seven studies on vancomycin, followed by carbapenems, with five studies, mostly on meropenem. Antivirals, aminoglycosides and antifungals counted three articles, followed by combined antibiotic therapy, cephalosporins, lipopeptides with two studies, respectively. Penicillins and polymixins counted one study each. Nine studies reported data on patients with a decreased kidney function, while 20 studies included data on kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Twenty-one studies reported data on PK. In 23 studies, clinical outcomes were reported. Clinical cure was achieved in 229/242 patients. There were four cases of underdosing, one case of overdosing and 13 reported deaths. Conclusion This is the first systematic review providing evidence of the use of anti-infective medicines in pediatric patients with impaired kidney function or requiring KRT. Dosing size or interval adjustments in pediatric patients with kidney impairment vary according to age, critical illness status, decreased kidney function and dialysis type. Our findings underline the relevance of population PK in clinical practice and the need of developing predictive specific models for critical pediatric patients.

Abstract
There is currently an increase in the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR) worldwide, requiring the development of novel antibiotics. However, it is not only the choice of antibiotic that is important in treating an infection; the drug regimen also deserves special attention to avoid underdosing and excessive concentrations. Critically ill patients often have marked variation in renal function, ranging from augmented renal clearance (ARC), defined as a measured creatinine clearance (CrCL) ≥ 130 mL/min*1.73 m2, to acute kidney injury (AKI), eventually requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT), which can affect antibiotic exposure. All novel beta-lactam (BLs) and/or beta-lactam/beta-lactamases inhibitors (BL/BLIs) antibiotics have specific pharmacokinetic properties, such as hydrophilicity, low plasma–protein binding, small volume of distribution, low molecular weight, and predominant renal clearance, which require adaptation of dosage regimens in the presence of abnormal renal function or RRT. However, there are limited data on the topic. The aim of this review was therefore to summarize available PK studies on these novel antibiotics performed in patients with ARC or AKI, or requiring RRT, in order to provide a practical approach to guide clinicians in the choice of the best dosage regimens in critically ill patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The need for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in critically ill patients with serious infections is associated with clinical failure, emergence of resistance, and excess mortality. These poor outcomes are attributable in large part to subtherapeutic antimicrobial exposure and failure to achieve target pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) thresholds during CRRT. Cefiderocol is a novel siderophore cephalosporin with broad in vitro activity against resistant pathogens and is often used to treat critically ill patients, including those receiving CRRT, despite the lack of data to guide dosing in this population. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the PK and PD of cefiderocol during in vitro and in vivo CRRT and provide optimal dosing recommendations. METHODS The PK and dialytic clearance of cefiderocol was evaluated via an established in vitro CRRT model across various modes, filter types, and effluent flow rates. These data were combined with in vivo PK data from nine patients receiving cefiderocol while receiving CRRT from phase III clinical trials. Optimal dosing regimens and their respective probability of target attainment (PTA) were assessed via an established population PK model with Bayesian estimation and 1000-subject Monte Carlo simulations at each effluent flow rate. RESULTS The overall mean sieving/saturation coefficient during in vitro CRRT was 0.90 across all modes, filter types, effluent flow rates, and points of replacement fluid dilution tested. Adsorption was negligible at 10.9%. Three-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multiple linear regression analyses demonstrated that effluent flow rate is the primary driver of clearance during CRRT and can be used to calculate optimal cefiderocol doses required to match the systemic exposure observed in patients with normal renal function. Bayesian estimation of these effluent flow rate-based optimal doses in nine patients receiving CRRT from the phase III clinical trials of cefiderocol revealed comparable mean (± standard deviation) area under the concentration-time curve values as patients with normal renal function (1709 ± 539 mg·h/L vs. 1494 ± 58.4 mg·h/L; p = 0.26). Monte Carlo simulations confirmed these doses achieved >90% PTA against minimum inhibitory concentrations ≤4 mg/L at effluent flow rates from 0.5 to 5 L/h. CONCLUSION The optimal dosing regimens developed from this work have been incorporated into the prescribing information for cefiderocol, making it the first and only antimicrobial with labeled dosing for CRRT. Future clinical studies are warranted to confirm the efficacy and safety of these regimens.

Abstract
(1) Purpose of this study: determination of adsorption and transmembrane clearances (CLTM) of imipenem and relebactam in ex vivo continuous hemofiltration (CH) and continuous hemodialysis (CHD) models. These clearances were incorporated into a Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS), to develop drug dosing recommendations for critically ill patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT); (2) Methods: A validated ex vivo bovine blood CH and CHD model using two hemodiafilters. Imipenem/relebactam and urea CLTM at different ultrafiltrate/dialysate flow rates were evaluated in both CH and CHD. MCS was performed to determine dose recommendations for patients receiving CRRT; (3) Results: Neither imipenem nor relebactam adsorbed to the CRRT apparatus. The CLTM of imipenem, relebactam, and urea approximated the effluent rates (ultrafiltrate/dialysate flow rates). The types of hemodiafilter and effluent rates did not influence CLTM except in a dialysis flow rate of 1 L/h and 6 L/h in the CHD with relebactam (p < 0.05). Imipenem and relebactam 200 mg/100 mg every 6 h were sufficient to meet the standard time above the MIC pharmacodynamic targets in the modeled CRRT regimen of 25 kg/mL/h. (4) Conclusions: Imipenem and relebactam are not removed by adsorption to the CRRT apparatus, but readily cross the hemodiafilter membrane in CH and CHD. Dosage adjustment of imipenem/relebactam is likely required for critically ill patients receiving CRRT.

Abstract
Background: Elimination of a drug during renal replacement therapy is not only dependent on flow rates, molecular size and protein binding, but is often influenced by difficult to predict drug membrane interactions. In vitro models allow for extensive profiling of drug clearance using a wide array of hemofilters and flow rates. We present a bovine blood based in vitro pharmacokinetic model for intermittent renal replacement therapy. Methods: Four different drugs were analyzed: gentamicin, doripenem, vancomicin and teicoplanin. The investigated drug was added to a bovine blood reservoir connected to a hemodialysis circuit. In total seven hemofilter models were analyzed using commonly employed flow rates. Pre-filter, post-filter and dialysate samples were drawn, plasmaseparated and analyzed using turbidimetric assays or HPLC. Protein binding of doripenem and vancomycin was measured in bovine plasma and compared to previously published values for human plasma. Results: Clearance values were heavily impacted by choice of membrane material and surface as well as by dialysis parameters such as blood flow rate. Gentamicin clearance ranged from a minimum of 90.12 ml/min in a Baxter CAHP-170 diacetate hemofilter up to a maximum of 187.90 ml/min in a Fresenius medical company Fx80 polysulfone model (blood flow rate 400 ml/min, dialysate flow rate 800 ml/min). Clearance of Gentamicin vs Vancomicin over the F80s hemofilter model using the same flow rates was 137.62 mL vs 103.25 ml/min. Doripenem clearance with the Fx80 was 141.25 ml/min. Conclusion: Clearance values corresponded very well to previously published data from clinical pharmacokinetic trials. In conjunction with in silico pharmacometric models. This model will allow precise dosing recommendations without the need of large scale clinical trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the influence of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) intensity on the clearance of ceftolozane/tazobactam in critical care patients, and to evaluate if the reported doses would achieve an optimal pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target against Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibiting different MICs. METHODS The MEDLINE-PubMed database was searched from inception to January 2020 to retrieve observational studies or case reports investigating the PK behaviour of ceftolozane/tazobactam during CRRT. Relevant CRRT settings and PK variables were extracted, and the influence of CRRT intensity on ceftolozane/tazobactam total clearance (CLtot) was determined by simple linear regression. The optimal PK/PD target for the reported doses was deemed to be achieved when ceftolozane trough concentrations (Cmin) were above the MIC (less intensive target) or four times the MIC (intensive target) for P. aeruginosa. RESULTS Data from six studies including 11 patients (mean age 56.6 years) were analysed. Mean blood flow rate and effluent flow rate were 161.8 mL/min and 2383.4 mL/h, respectively. Ceftolozane Cmin ranged from 25.8 to 79.4 mg/L. A significant correlation was found for ceftolozane CLtot and effluent flow rate (P = 0.027). The intensive PK/PD target was achieved by 100% and 50% of the reported doses for MIC, respectively, up to 4 and 8 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS A significant correlation between effluent flow rate and ceftolozane clearance during CRRT could be identified. Higher dosing regimens coupled with continuous/extended infusion may be required in the case of higher CRRT intensity, deep-seated infections or poorly susceptible isolates. Larger studies assessing ceftolozane PK in different CRRT settings are warranted.

Antimicrobial Dose Reduction in Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: Myth or Real Need? A Practical Approach for Guiding Dose Optimization of Novel Antibiotics. Clin Pharmacokinet 2021; 60:1271-1289. [PMID: 34125420 PMCID: PMC8505328 DOI: 10.1007/s40262-021-01040-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 05/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Acute kidney injury represents a common complication in critically ill patients affected by septic shock and in many cases continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) may be required. In this scenario, antimicrobial dose optimization is highly challenging as the extracorporeal circuit may cause several pharmacokinetic alterations, which add up to volume of distribution and clearance variations resulting from sepsis. Variations in CRRT settings (i.e. modality of solute removal, type of filter material, blood flow rate and effluent flow rate), coupled with the presence of residual and/or recovering renal function, may cause dynamic variations in the clearance of hydrophilic antimicrobials. This means that dose reduction may not always be needed. Nowadays, the lack of pharmacokinetic data for novel antimicrobials during CRRT limits evidence-based dose recommendations for critically ill patients in this setting, thus making available evidence hardly applicable in real-world scenarios. This review aims to summarize the major determinants involved in antimicrobial clearance, and the available pharmacokinetic studies performed during CRRT involving novel antibiotics used for the management of multidrug-resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative infections (namely ceftolozane–tazobactam, ceftazidime–avibactam, cefiderocol, imipenem–relebactam, meropenem–vaborbactam, ceftaroline, ceftobiprole, dalbavancin, and fosfomycin), providing a practical approach in guiding dose optimization in this special population.

Andrews L, Benken S, Tan X, Wenzler E. Pharmacokinetics and dialytic clearance of apixaban during in vitro continuous renal replacement therapy. BMC Nephrol 2021; 22:45. [PMID: 33516188 PMCID: PMC7847018 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-021-02248-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2020] [Accepted: 01/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background To evaluate the transmembrane clearance (CLTM) of apixaban during modeled in vitro continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), assess protein binding and circuit adsorption, and provide initial dosing recommendations. Methods Apixaban was added to the CRRT circuit and serial pre-filter bovine blood samples were collected along with post-filter blood and effluent samples. All experiments were performed in duplicate using continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) and hemodialysis (CVVHD) modes, with varying filter types, flow rates, and point of CVVH replacement fluid dilution. Concentrations of apixaban and urea were quantified via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Plasma pharmacokinetic parameters for apixaban were estimated via noncompartmental analysis. CLTM was calculated via the estimated area under the curve (AUC) and by the product of the sieving/saturation coefficient (SC/SA) and flow rate. Two and three-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) models were built to assess the effects of mode, filter type, flow rate, and point of dilution on CLTM by each method. Optimal doses were suggested by matching the AUC observed in vitro to the systemic exposure demonstrated in Phase 2/3 studies of apixaban. Linear regression was utilized to provide dosing estimations for flow rates from 0.5–5 L/h. Results Mean adsorption to the HF1400 and M150 filters differed significantly at 38 and 13%, respectively, while mean (± standard deviation, SD) percent protein binding was 70.81 ± 0.01%. Effect of CVVH point of dilution did not differ across filter types, although CLTM was consistently significantly higher during CRRT with the HF1400 filter compared to the M150. The three-way ANOVA demonstrated improved fit when CLTM values calculated by AUC were used (adjusted R2 0.87 vs. 0.52), and therefore, these values were used to generate optimal dosing recommendations. Linear regression revealed significant effects of filter type and flow rate on CLTM by AUC, suggesting doses of 2.5–7.5 mg twice daily (BID) may be needed for flow rates ranging from 0.5–5 L/h, respectively. Conclusion For CRRT flow rates most commonly employed in clinical practice, the standard labeled 5 mg BID dose of apixaban is predicted to achieve target systemic exposure thresholds. The safety and efficacy of these proposed dosing regimens warrants further investigation in clinical studies.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Penetration of Ceftolozane-Tazobactam in Critically Ill Patients with an Indwelling External Ventricular Drain. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2020; 65:AAC.01698-20. [PMID: 33077655 PMCID: PMC7927828 DOI: 10.1128/aac.01698-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to describe the pharmacokinetics of ceftolozane-tazobactam in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of infected critically ill patients. In a prospective observational study, critically ill patients (≥18 years) with an indwelling external ventricular drain received a single intravenous dose of 3.0 g ceftolozane-tazobactam. Serial plasma and CSF samples were collected for measurement of unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam concentration by liquid chromatography. The aim of this study was to describe the pharmacokinetics of ceftolozane-tazobactam in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of infected critically ill patients. In a prospective observational study, critically ill patients (≥18 years) with an indwelling external ventricular drain received a single intravenous dose of 3.0 g ceftolozane-tazobactam. Serial plasma and CSF samples were collected for measurement of unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam concentration by liquid chromatography. Unbound concentration-time data were modeled in R using Pmetrics. Dosing simulations were performed using the final model. A three-compartment model adequately described the data from 10 patients. For ceftolozane, the median (interquartile range [IQR]) area under the unbound concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (fAUC0-inf) in the CSF and plasma were 30 (19 to 128) h·mg/liter and 323 (183 to 414) h·mg/liter, respectively. For tazobactam, these values were 5.6 (2 to 24) h·mg/liter and 52 (36 to 80) h·mg/liter, respectively. Mean ± standard deviation (SD) CSF penetration ratios were 0.2 ± 0.2 and 0.2 ± 0.26 for ceftolozane and tazobactam, respectively. With the regimen of 3.0 g every 8 h, a probability of target attainment (PTA) of ≥0.9 for 40% fT>MIC in the CSF was possible only when MICs were ≤0.25 mg/liter. The CSF cumulative fractional response for Pseudomonas aeruginosa-susceptible MIC distribution was 73%. The tazobactam PTA for the minimal suggested exposure of 20% fT>1 mg/liter was 12%. The current maximal dose of ceftolozane-tazobactam (3.0 g every 8 h) does not provide adequate CSF exposure for treatment of Gram-negative meningitis or ventriculitis unless the MIC for the causative pathogen is very low (≤0.25 mg/liter).

Abstract
Background: Ceftolozane-tazobactam is a new antibiotic against multidrug-resistant pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosas. Ceftolozane-tazobactam dosage is still uncertain in children, especially in those with renal impairment or undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Methods: Evaluation of different ceftolozane-tazobactam dosing regimens in three critically ill children. Ceftolozane pharmacokinetics (PK) were characterized by obtaining the patient’s specific parameters by Bayesian estimation based on a population PK model. The clearance (CL) in patient C undergoing CRRT was estimated using the prefilter, postfilter, and ultrafiltrate concentrations simultaneously. Variables such as blood, dialysate, replacement, and ultrafiltrate flow rates, and hematocrit were integrated in the model. All PK analyses were performed using NONMEM v.7.4. Results: Patient A (8 months of age, 8.7 kg) with normal renal function received 40 mg/kg every 6 h: renal clearance (CLR) was 0.88 L/h; volume of distribution (Vd) Vd1 = 3.45 L, Vd2 = 0.942 L; terminal halflife (t1/2,β) = 3.51 h, dosing interval area under the drug concentration vs. time curve at steady-state (AUCτ,SS) 397.73 mg × h × L−1. Patient B (19 months of age, 11 kg) with eGFR of 22 mL/min/1.73 m2 received 36 mg/kg every 8 h: CLR = 0.27 L/h; Vd1 = 1.13 L; Vd2 = 1.36; t1/2,β = 6.62 h; AUCSS 1481.48 mg × h × L−1. Patient C (9 months of age, 5.8 kg), with severe renal impairment undergoing CRRT received 30 mg/kg every 8 h: renal replacement therapy clearance (CLRRT) 0.39 L/h; Vd1 = 0.74 L; Vd2= 1.17; t 1/2,β = 3.51 h; AUCτ,SS 448.72 mg × h × L−1. No adverse effects attributable to antibiotic treatment were observed. Conclusions: Our results suggest that a dose of 35 mg/kg every 8 h can be appropriate in critically ill septic children with multi-drug resistance Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. A lower dose of 10 mg/kg every 8 h could be considered for children with severe AKI. For patients with CRRT and a high effluent rate, a dose of 30 mg/kg every 8 h can be considered.

Abstract
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is more and more widely used in patients for various indications recent years. It is still intricate for clinicians to decide a suitable empiric antimicrobial dosing for patients receiving CRRT. Inappropriate doses of antimicrobial agents may lead to treatment failure or drug resistance of pathogens. CRRT factors, patient individual conditions and drug pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics are the main elements effecting the antimicrobial dosing adjustment. With the development of CRRT techniques, some antimicrobial dosing recommendations in earlier studies were no longer appropriate for clinical use now. Here, we reviewed the literatures involving in new progresses of antimicrobial dosages, and complied the updated empirical dosing strategies based on CRRT modalities and effluent flow rates. The following antimicrobial agents were included for review: flucloxacillin, piperacillin/tazobactam, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime/avibactam, cefepime, ceftolozane/tazobactam, sulbactam, meropenem, imipenem, panipenem, biapenem, ertapenem, doripenem, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, clindamycin, azithromycin, tigecycline, polymyxin B, colistin, vancomycin, teicoplanin, linezolid, daptomycin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, fluconazole, voriconazole, posaconzole, caspofungin, micafungin, amphotericin B, acyclovir, ganciclovir, oseltamivir, and peramivir.

Abstract
Introduction: In continuous renal replacement therapy, conduction and convection are controlled allowing prescribing dosage regimen improving survival. In contrast, adsorption is an uncontrolled property altering drug disposition. Whether adsorption depends on flowrates is unknown. We hypothesized an in vitro model may provide information in conditions mimicking continuous renal replacement therapy in humans. Methods: ST150®-AN69 filter and Prismaflex dialyzer, Baxter-Gambro were used. Simulated blood flowrate was set at 200 mL/min. The flowrates in the filtration (continuous filtration), dialysis (continuous dialysis), and diafiltration (continuous diafiltration) were 1500, 2500, and 4000 mL/h, respectively. Routes of elimination were assessed using NeckEpur® analysis. Results: The percentages of the total amount eliminated by continuous filtration, continuous dialysis, and continuous diafiltration were 82%, 86%, and 94%, respectively. Elimination by effluents and adsorption accounted for 42% ± 7% and 58% ± 5%, 57% ± 7% and 43% ± 6%, and 84% ± 6% and 16% ± 6% of amikacin elimination, respectively. There was a linear regression between flowrates and amikacin clearance: Y = 0.6 X ± 1.7 (R2 = 0.9782). Conversely, there was a linear inverse correlation between the magnitude of amikacin adsorption and flowrate: Y = –16.9 X ± 84.1 (R2 = 0.9976). Conclusion: Low flowrates resulted in predominant elimination by adsorption, accounting for 58% of the elimination of amikacin from the central compartment in the continuous filtration mode at 1500 mL/h of flowrate. Thereafter, the greater the flowrate, the lower the adsorption of amikacin in a linear manner. Flowrate is a major determinant of adsorption of amikacin. There was an about 17% decrease in the rate of adsorption per increase in the flowrate of 1 L/min.

A Population Pharmacokinetic Model-Guided Evaluation of Ceftolozane-Tazobactam Dosing in Critically Ill Patients Undergoing Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2019; 64:AAC.01655-19.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to describe optimized dosing regimens of ceftolozane-tazobactam for critically ill patients receiving continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). We conducted a prospective observational pharmacokinetic study in adult critically ill patients with clinical indications for ceftolozane-tazobactam and CVVHDF. Unbound drug concentrations were measured from serial prefilter blood, postfilter blood, and ultrafiltrate samples by a chromatographic assay. Population pharmacokinetic modeling and dosing simulations were performed using Pmetrics. A four-compartment pharmacokinetic model adequately described the data from six patients. The mean (± standard deviation [SD]) extraction ratios for ceftolozane and tazobactam were 0.76 ± 0.08 and 0.73 ± 0.1, respectively. The mean ± SD sieving coefficients were 0.94 ± 0.24 and 1.08 ± 0.30, respectively. Model-estimated CVVHDF clearance rates were 2.7 ± 0.8 and 3.0 ± 0.6 liters/h, respectively. Residual non-CVVHDF clearance rates were 0.6 ± 0.5 and 3.3 ± 0.9 liters/h, respectively. In the initial 24 h, doses as low as 0.75 g every 8 h enabled cumulative fractional response of ≥85% for empirical coverage against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, considering a 40% fT >MIC (percentage of time the free drug concentration was above the MIC) target. For 100% fT >MIC, doses of at least 1.5 g every 8 h were required. The median (interquartile range) steady-state trough ceftolozane concentrations for simulated regimens of 1.5 g and 3.0 g every 8 h were 28 (21 to 42) and 56 (42 to 84) mg/liter, respectively. The corresponding tazobactam concentrations were 6.1 (5.5 to 6.7) and 12.1 (11.0 to 13.4) mg/liter, respectively. We suggest a front-loaded regimen with a single 3.0-g loading dose followed by 0.75 g every 8 h for critically ill patients undergoing CVVHDF with study blood and dialysate flow rates.

Abstract
Evaluation of dosing regimens for critically ill patients requires pharmacokinetic data in this population. This prospective observational study aimed to describe the population pharmacokinetics of unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam in critically ill patients without renal impairment and to assess the adequacy of recommended dosing regimens for treatment of systemic infections. Patients received 1.5 or 3.0 g ceftolozane-tazobactam according to clinician recommendation. Evaluation of dosing regimens for critically ill patients requires pharmacokinetic data in this population. This prospective observational study aimed to describe the population pharmacokinetics of unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam in critically ill patients without renal impairment and to assess the adequacy of recommended dosing regimens for treatment of systemic infections. Patients received 1.5 or 3.0 g ceftolozane-tazobactam according to clinician recommendation. Unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam plasma concentrations were assayed, and data were analyzed with Pmetrics with subsequent Monte Carlo simulations. A two-compartment model adequately described the data from twelve patients. Urinary creatinine clearance (CLCR) and body weight described between-patient variability in clearance and central volume of distribution (V), respectively. Mean ± standard deviation (SD) parameter estimates for unbound ceftolozane and tazobactam, respectively, were CL of 7.2 ± 3.2 and 25.4 ± 9.4 liters/h, V of 20.4 ± 3.7 and 32.4 ± 10 liters, rate constant for distribution of unbound ceftolozane or tazobactam from central to peripheral compartment (Kcp) of 0.46 ± 0.74 and 2.96 ± 8.6 h−1, and rate constant for distribution of unbound ceftolozane or tazobactam from peripheral to central compartment (Kpc) of 0.39 ± 0.37 and 26.5 ± 8.4 h−1. With dosing at 1.5 g and 3.0 g every 8 h (q8h), the fractional target attainment (FTA) against Pseudomonas aeruginosa was ≥85% for directed therapy (MIC ≤ 4 mg/liter). However, for empirical coverage (MIC up to 64 mg/liter), the FTA was 84% with the 1.5-g q8h regimen when creatinine clearance is 180 ml/min/1.73 m2, whereas the 3.0-g q8h regimen consistently achieved an FTA of ≥85%. For a target of 40% of time the free drug concentration is above the MIC (40% fT>MIC), 3g q8h by intermittent infusion is suggested unless a highly susceptible pathogen is present, in which case 1.5-g dosing could be used. If a higher target of 100% fT>MIC is required, a 1.5-g loading dose plus a 4.5-g continuous infusion may be adequate.

Abstract
The combination product meropenem-vaborbactam, with activity against KPC-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, is likely to be used during renal replacement therapy. The aim of this work was to describe the extracorporeal removal (adsorption and clearance) of meropenem-vaborbactam during continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH). The combination product meropenem-vaborbactam, with activity against KPC-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, is likely to be used during renal replacement therapy. The aim of this work was to describe the extracorporeal removal (adsorption and clearance) of meropenem-vaborbactam during continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH). An ex vivo model was used to examine the effects of a matrix of operational settings. Vaborbactam did not adsorb to AN69 (acrylonitrile and sodium methallylsulfonate copolymer) ST100 (surface area, 1 m2) hemofilter; the mean (±standard deviation [SD]) meropenem adsorption was 9% (±1%). The sieving coefficients (mean ± SD) with AN69 ST100 and ST150 (surface area, 1.5 m2) filters ranged from 0.97 ± 0.16 to 1.14 ± 0.12 and from 1.13 ± 0.01 to 1.53 ± 0.28, respectively, for meropenem and from 0.64 ± 0.39 to 0.90 ± 0.14 and 0.78 ± 0.18 to 1.04 ± 0.28, respectively, for vaborbactam. At identical settings, vaborbactam sieving coefficients were 25% to 30% lower than for meropenem. Points of dilution, blood flow rates, or effluent flow rates did not affect sieving coefficients for either drug. However, doubling the effluent flow rate resulted in >50 to 100% increases in filter clearance for both drugs. Postfilter dilution resulted in 40 to 80% increases in filter clearance at a high effluent flow rate (4,000 ml/h), compared with ∼15% increases at a low effluent flow rate (1,000 ml/h) for both drugs. For all combinations of setting and filters tested, vaborbactam clearance was lower than that of meropenem by ∼20 to 40%. Overall, meropenem-vaborbactam is efficiently cleared in CVVH mode.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To determine adsorption and transmembrane clearances (CLTM) of rezafungin, a novel long-acting echinocandin, in continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH). METHODS A validated ex vivo bovine blood CVVH model using polysulfone and AN69 hemodiafilters was used to evaluate urea and rezafungin CLTM at 3 different ultrafiltrate flow rates. Rezafungin adsorption to the CRRT apparatus was determined for each hemodiafilter. RESULTS The sieving coefficient (SC) from CVVH with 3 different ultrafiltrate flow rates was 0 for both HF1400 and Multiflow-150 hemodiafilters, while urea SC was approximately 1 at all flow rates. Hemodiafilter type and ultrafiltrate flow rate did not influence CLTM. Rezafungin adsorption to the CVVH apparatus was not observed for either hemodiafilter. CONCLUSION Rezafungin is not removed by CVVH by membrane adsorption or via CLTM. Ultrafiltrate flow rates and hemodiafilter types are unlikely to influence rezafungin CLTM. No dosage adjustment of rezafungin is likely required for critically ill patients receiving CVVH.
