Abstract
Adequate dosing of antimicrobials is paramount for treating infections in critically ill patients undergoing kidney replacement therapy; however, little is known about antimicrobial removal by sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED). The objective was to quantify the removal of cefepime, daptomycin, meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, and vancomycin in patients undergoing SLED. Adult patients ≥18 years with acute kidney injury (AKI) or end-stage kidney disease receiving one of the select antimicrobials and requiring SLED were included. Blood and dialysate flow rates were maintained at 250 and 100 mL/min, respectively. Simultaneous arterial and venous blood samples for the analysis of antibiotic concentrations were collected hourly for 8 hours during SLED (on-SLED). Arterial samples were collected every 2 hours for up to 6 hours while not receiving SLED (off-SLED) for the calculation of SLED clearance, half-life (t1/2) on-SLED and off-SLED, and the fraction of removal by SLED (fD). Twenty-one patients completed the study: 52% male, mean age (±SD) 53 ± 13 years, and mean weight of 98 ± 30 kg. Eighty-six percent had AKI, and 4 patients were receiving cefepime, 3 daptomycin, 10 meropenem, 6 piperacillin-tazobactam, and 13 vancomycin. The average SLED time was 7.3 ± 1.1 hours, and the mean ultrafiltration rate was 95 ± 52 mL/hour (range 10-211). The t1/2 on-SLED was substantially lower than the off-SLED t1/2 for all antimicrobials, and the SLED fD varied between 44% and 77%. An 8-hour SLED session led to significant elimination of most antimicrobials evaluated. If SLED is performed, modification of the dosing regimen is warranted to avoid subtherapeutic concentrations.

Antimicrobial pharmacokinetics and dosing in critically ill adults receiving prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy: A systematic review. Pharmacotherapy 2023; 43:1206-1220. [PMID: 37596844 DOI: 10.1002/phar.2861] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/20/2023]
Abstract
Prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy (PIRRT) is gaining popularity as a renal replacement modality in intensive care units, but there is a relative lack of guidance regarding antimicrobial clearance and dosing when compared with other modalities. The objectives of this systematic review were to: (1) identify and describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of relevant antimicrobials used in critically ill adults receiving PIRRT, (2) evaluate the quality of evidence supporting these data, and (3) propose dosing recommendations based on the synthesis of these data. A search strategy for multiple databases was designed and executed to identify relevant published evidence describing the PK of antimicrobials used in critically ill adults receiving PIRRT. Quality assessment, evaluation of reporting, and relevant data extraction were conducted in duplicate. Synthesis of PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) outcomes, dosing recommendations from study authors, and physicochemical properties of included antibiotics were assessed by investigators in addition to the quality of evidence to develop dosing recommendations. Thirty-nine studies enrolling 452 patients met criteria for inclusion and provided PK and/or PD data for 20 antimicrobials in critically ill adults receiving PIRRT. Nineteen studies describe both PK and PD outcomes. Vancomycin (12 studies, 171 patients), meropenem (7 studies, 84 patients), and piperacillin/tazobactam (5 studies, 56 patients) were the most frequent antimicrobials encountered. The quality of evidence was deemed strong for 7/20 antimicrobials, and strong dosing recommendations were determined for 9/20 antimicrobials. This systematic review updates and addresses issues of quality in previous systematic reviews on this topic. Despite an overall low quality of evidence, strong recommendations were able to be made for almost half of the identified antimicrobials. Knowledge gaps persist for many antimicrobials, and higher quality studies (i.e., population PK studies with assessment of PD target attainment) are needed to address these gaps.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly encountered comorbidity in critically ill children. The coexistence of AKI disturbs drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, leading to clinically significant consequences. This can complicate an already critical clinical scenario by causing potential underdosing or overdosing giving way to possible therapeutic failures and adverse reactions. Current available studies offer little guidance to help maneuver such complex dosing regimens and decision-making in pediatric patients as most of them are done on heterogeneous groups of adult populations. Though there are some studies on drug dosing during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), their utility is in question because of the recent advances in CRRT technology. Our review aims to discuss the principles of pharmacokinetics pertinent for honing the existing practices of drug dosing in critically ill children with AKI, and the various complexities and intricate challenges involved. This in turn will provide a framework to help enable caretakers to tailor dosing regimens in complex clinical setups with further ease and precision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) is a hybrid form of dialysis that is increasingly used in critically ill patients with kidney injury and hemodynamic instability. Antimicrobial dosing for patients receiving SLED is informed by pharmacokinetic studies that describe the drug clearance. Studies available to assist in the dosing of vancomycin in the context of SLED are lacking. OBJECTIVE The objective of this prospective observational study was to describe the population pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in critically ill patients receiving SLED, and use simulation studies to propose dosing strategies. METHODS Serial serum samples were obtained from 31 critically ill patients prescribed vancomycin while receiving SLED. Vancomycin concentrations were quantified in plasma using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry method. A population pharmacokinetic model was developed, and Monte Carlo simulation was used to determine the probability of target attainment at different doses. RESULTS From a total of 335 serum samples from 31 patients receiving 52 sessions of SLED therapy, a two-compartment linear model with zero-order input was developed. The mean (standard deviation) clearance of vancomycin on and off SLED was 5.97 (4.04) and 2.40 (1.46) L/h, respectively. Using pharmacodynamic targets for efficacy (area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 h [AUC24]/minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] ≥ 400) and safety (AUC24 ≥ 700), a loading dose of 2400 mg followed by daily doses of 1600 mg is recommended. Subsequent dosing should be informed by therapeutic drug monitoring of vancomycin levels. CONCLUSIONS In critically ill patients receiving SLED, vancomycin clearance is highly variable with a narrow therapeutic window. Empiric dosing is proposed but subsequent dosing should be guided by drug levels.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vancomycin pharmacokinetic data in critically ill patients receiving sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) is limited. Published data using vancomycin with intermittent hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy may not be applicable to hybrid dialysis modalities such as SLED. Current drug references lack recommendations for vancomycin dosing in patients receiving SLED. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine vancomycin pharmacokinetics during SLED. METHODS A total of 20 patients who were critically ill with oliguric or anuric renal failure who received vancomycin and SLED were included in the study. Surrounding one SLED session, serum vancomycin blood samples were drawn before the initiation of SLED, at the termination of SLED, and 4 hours after completion of SLED treatment. Following this, patients received vancomycin, dosed to target a goal peak of 20-30 mcg/ml. A vancomycin peak level was drawn 1 hour after the end of the infusion. SLED treatment duration was at least 7 hours. Continuous data are reported as median (interquartile range) and categorical data as percentage. RESULTS The vancomycin elimination rate and half-life were 0.051 hours (0.042-0.074 hours) and 13.6 hours (9.4-16.6 hours), respectively. SLED reduced vancomycin serum concentrations by 35.4% (31.5-43.8%), and vancomycin rebound was 9.8% (2.5-13.7%). The vancomycin dose administered post-SLED was 1000 mg (875-1125 mg). For 18 patients, the patient-specific volume of distribution was 0.88 L/kg (0.67-1.1 L/kg), vancomycin clearance was 3.5 L/hr (2.2-5.2 L/hr), and the area under the concentration-time curve during the study time period was 280.8 mg·hr/L (254.7-297.3 mg·hr/L). CONCLUSION Vancomycin is significantly removed during SLED with little rebound in serum concentrations 4 hours after completion of SLED. Based on study findings, patients who are critically ill require additional vancomycin dosing after each SLED session to maintain therapeutic post-SLED vancomycin concentrations. Therapeutic drug monitoring of vancomycin is recommended during SLED.

Vancomycin for Dialytic Therapy in Critically Ill Patients: Analysis of Its Reduction and the Factors Associated with Subtherapeutic Concentrations. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17186861. [PMID: 32961829 PMCID: PMC7558948 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17186861] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2020] [Revised: 09/10/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the reduction in vancomycin through intermittent haemodialysis (IHD) and prolonged haemodialysis (PHD) in acute kidney injury (AKI) patients with sepsis and to identify the variables associated with subtherapeutic concentrations. A prospective study was performed in patients admitted at an intensive care unit (ICU) of a Brazilian hospital. Blood samples were collected at the start of dialytic therapy, after 2 and 4 h of treatment and at the end of therapy to determine the serum concentration of vancomycin and thus perform pharmacokinetic evaluation and PK/PD modelling. Twenty-seven patients treated with IHD, 17 treated with PHD for 6 h and 11 treated with PHD for 10 h were included. The reduction in serum concentrations of vancomycin after 2 h of therapy was 26.65 ± 12.64% and at the end of dialysis was 45.78 ± 12.79%, higher in the 10-h PHD group, 57.70% (40, 48–64, 30%) (p = 0.037). The ratio of the area under the curve to minimal inhibitory concentration (AUC/MIC) at 24 h in the PHD group was significantly smaller than at 10 h (p = 0.047). In the logistic regression, PHD was a risk factor for an AUC/MIC ratio less than 400 (OR = 11.59, p = 0.033), while a higher serum concentration of vancomycin at T0 was a protective factor (OR = 0.791, p = 0.009). In conclusion, subtherapeutic concentrations of vancomycin in acute kidney injury (AKI) patients in dialysis were elevated and may be related to a higher risk of bacterial resistance and mortality, besides pointing out the necessity of additional doses of vancomycin during dialytic therapy, mainly in PHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in patients who undergo sustained low efficiency daily diafiltration (SLEDD-f) is not clear. This study aimed to determine the appropriate vancomycin dosage regimen for patients receiving SLEDD-f. METHODS This prospectively observational study enrolled critically ill patients older than 18 years old that used SLEDD-f as renal replacement therapy and received vancomycin treatment. An 8-h SLEDD-f was performed with FX-60 (high-flux helixone membrane, 1.4 m2). Serial blood samples were collected before, during, and after SLEDD-f to analyse vancomycin serum concentrations. Effluent fluid samples (a mixture of dialysate and ultrafiltrate) were also collected to determine the amount of vancomycin removal. RESULTS Seventeen patients were enrolled, and 10 completed the study. The amount of vancomycin removal was 447.4 ± 88.8 mg (about 78.4 ± 18.4% of the dose administered before SLEDD-f). The vancomycin concentration was reduced by 57.5 ± 14.9% during SLEDD-f, and this reduction was followed by a rebound with duration of one to three hours. The elimination half-life of vancomycin decreased from 64.1 ± 35.7 h before SLEDD-f to 7.0 ± 3.0 h during SLEDD-f. CONCLUSION Significant amount of vancomycin removed during SLEDD-f. Despite the existence of post-dialysis rebound, a sufficient supplemental dose is necessary to maintain therapeutic range.

Abstract
The use of sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) as a renal replacement modality has increased in critically ill patients with both acute kidney injury (AKI) and hemodynamic instability. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of data regarding the appropriate dosing of medications for patients undergoing SLED. Dose adjustment in SLED often requires interpretation of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetic factors and extrapolation based on dosing recommendations from other modes of renal replacement therapy (RRT). This review summarizes published trials of antimicrobial dose adjustment in SLED and discusses pharmacokinetic considerations specific to medication dosing in SLED. Preliminary recommendation is provided on selection of appropriate dosing for medications where published literature is unavailable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recently, prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapies (PIRRT) have emerged as cost-effective alternatives to conventional CRRT and their use in the pediatric population has started to become more prominent. However, there is a lack of consensus guidelines on the use of PIRRT in pediatric patients in an intensive care setting. METHODS A literature search was performed on PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Google Scholar in conjunction with medical librarians from both India and the Cleveland Clinic hospital system to find relevant articles. The Pediatric Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy workgroup analyzed all articles for relevancy, proposed recommendations, and graded each recommendation for their strength of evidence. RESULTS Of the 60 studies eligible for review, the workgroup considered data from 37 studies to formulate guidelines for the use of PIRRT in children. The guidelines focused on the definition, indications, machines, and prescription of PIRRT. CONCLUSION Although the literature on the use of PIRRT in children is limited, the current studies give credence to their benefits and these expert recommendations are a valuable first step in the continued study of PIRRT in the pediatric population.

Abstract
AIM Previous pharmacokinetic (PK) studies have proposed various dosing regimens for vancomycin in intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT), but all are restricted to specific RRT modalities. To be useful in practice, a population PK model would need to predict vancomycin clearance during any RRT modality. Development of such a model is feasible using meta-analysis of published summarized estimates of vancomycin PK parameters. Our aims were: (i) to develop and validate a population PK model for vancomycin that takes into account any RRT modalities, and (ii) to predict vancomycin dosing for RRT patients in ICU. METHODS Vancomycin pharmacokinetics were assumed to be two-compartmental, total body clearance being the sum of non-RRT clearance and RRT-induced clearance. Drug disposition and non-RRT clearance parameters were estimated by systematic review and meta-analysis of previously published parameter estimates. The relationship between RRT-induced clearance and RRT flowrate settings was assessed using a model-based meta-analysis. Prediction performances of the PK model were assessed using external data. RESULTS The meta-analyses of disposition parameters, non-RRT clearance and RRT-induced clearance included 11, 6 and 38 studies (84 RRT clearance measurements) respectively. The model performed well in predicting external individual PK data. Individual vancomycin concentrations during RRT were accurately predicted using Bayesian estimation based solely on pre-RRT measurements. CONCLUSIONS The PK model allowed accurate prediction of the vancomycin pharmacokinetics during RRT in ICU patients. Based on the model of RRT-induced clearance, an appropriate adjustment of the vancomycin dosing regimen could be proposed for any kind of flowrate settings.

Abstract
Purpose of review Sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) is increasingly used as a renal replacement modality in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and hemodynamic instability. There is, therefore, a greater need for the understanding of the antibiotic dosage and pharmacokinetics in these patients, to provide them with optimal therapy. Sources of information PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Google Scholar. Methods PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Google Scholar databases were searched using a combination of key words: dialysis, end stage renal disease, renal failure, sustained low efficiency dialysis, extended daily dialysis, prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy (PIRRT), and antibiotic dosing. Studies that investigated antibiotic dosing and pharmacokinetics during SLED/extended daily dialysis/PIRRT were selected for this review. Key findings Eleven studies met inclusion criteria and selected for data extraction. The data with regard to dialysis specifications, type of antibiotic including dosages, drug clearances, and dosage recommendations are summarized in Table 1. It is a challenge to find therapeutic doses for antibiotics during SLED therapy because, in general, only aminoglycosides and vancomycin can be assayed in clinical laboratories. Limitations Although current studies on antibiotic dosing in SLED are limited due to diverse and undersized patient populations, antibiotic dosage adjustments for patients receiving SLED discussed here will serve as a valuable guide. Future large-scale research should focus on establishing guidelines for antibiotic dosage in SLED. Implications Pharmacokinetic principles should be taken into consideration for the appropriate dosing of drugs during SLED, yet it is vital to monitor response to drug to make sure therapeutic goals are achieved. Antibiotic dosing and timing relative to the initiation of SLED may be important to maximize either the time above the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) (time-dependent) or the peak to MIC ratio (concentration-dependent), balancing efficacy and toxicity concerns. Critical care physicians should liaise with nephrologists to make decisions regarding appropriate antibiotic dosing in patients undergoing SLED.

Abstract
Wide ranges of age and weight in pediatric patients makes renal replacement therapy (RRT) in acute kidney injury (AKI) challenging, particularly in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), wherein children are often hemodynamically unstable. Standard hemodialysis (HD) is difficult in this group of children and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration/dialysis (CVVH/D) has been the accepted modality in the developed world. Unfortunately, due to cost constraints, CVVH/D is often not available and peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains the common mode of RRT in resource-poor facilities. Acute PD has its drawbacks, and intermittent HD (IHD) done slowly over a prolonged period has been explored as an alternative. Various modes of slow sustained IHD have been described in the literature with the recently introduced term prolonged intermittent RRT (PIRRT) serving as an umbrella terminology for all of these modes. PIRRT has been widely accepted in adults with studies showing it to be as effective as CVVH/D but with an added advantage of being more cost-effective. Pediatric data, though scanty, has been promising. In this current review, we elaborate on the practical aspects of undertaking PIRRT in children as well as summarize its current status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of hybrid renal replacement therapies like sustained low efficiency dialysis (SLED) is increasing in ICUs worldwide. However, pharmacokinetic studies designed to inform therapeutic antibiotic dosing in critically ill patients receiving SLED are limited. SLED operational characteristics vary across institutions. Pharmacists in institutions that utilize SLED are challenged to recommend therapeutic doses for antibiotics. OBJECTIVE To characterize pharmacist-recommended antibiotic regimens for SLED. METHODS An electronic survey was sent to pharmacist members of the American College of Clinical Pharmacy in the Nephrology or Critical Care Practice and Research Network. Dosing recommendations for a hypothetical critically ill septic patient were collected for cefepime, ceftaroline, daptomycin, levofloxacin, meropenem, and piperacillin/tazobactam. Main outcome measure Antibiotic regimens for the six antibiotics, their frequency, pharmacist’s experience with renal replacement therapies (RRT), post-graduate training, years of clinical experience, number of staffed beds in their hospital, and RRT employed in their ICUs. RESULTS The survey was completed by 69 clinical pharmacists who had 8.5 ± 7.5 (mean ± SD) years of experience. All pharmacists had experience dosing medications for patients receiving RRT. The most frequently recommended regimen for each antibiotic was: cefepime 1000 mg every 24 h, ceftaroline 200 mg every 12 h, daptomycin 6 mg/kg every 24 h, levofloxacin 500 mg every 24 h, meropenem 1000 mg every 12 h, and piperacillin/tazobactam 2250 mg every 8 h. Up to nine distinct regimens were recommended for each antibiotic, and the total daily dose between these regimens ranged by as much as a 12-fold. Neither pharmacist’s experience with SLED, post-graduate training, nor years of clinical experience were significantly associated with particular dosing recommendations for the antibiotics. CONCLUSION Pharmacists working in institutions that utilize SLED make antibiotic dosing recommendations that vary 4–12-fold depending on the drug. Published research does not provide adequate guidance to optimally dose antibiotics in patients receiving SLED. More SLED pharmacokinetic trials, real-time serum concentration monitoring and advanced pharmacokinetic modeling techniques are necessary to ensure therapeutic dosing in patients receiving SLED.

Abstract
Drug dosage adjustment for patients with acute or chronic kidney disease is an accepted standard of practice. The challenge is how to accurately estimate a patient's kidney function in both acute and chronic kidney disease and determine the influence of renal replacement therapies on drug disposition. Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) held a conference to investigate these issues and propose recommendations for practitioners, researchers, and those involved in the drug development and regulatory arenas. The conference attendees discussed the major challenges facing drug dosage adjustment for patients with kidney disease. In particular, although glomerular filtration rate is the metric used to guide dose adjustment, kidney disease does affect nonrenal clearances, and this is not adequately considered in most pharmacokinetic studies. There are also inadequate studies in patients receiving all forms of renal replacement therapy and in the pediatric population. The conference generated 37 recommendations for clinical practice, 32 recommendations for future research directions, and 24 recommendations for regulatory agencies (US Food and Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency) to enhance the quality of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic information available to clinicians. The KDIGO Conference highlighted the gaps and focused on crafting paths to the future that will stimulate research and improve the global outcomes of patients with acute and chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
A common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) is sepsis, which makes appropriate dosing of antibiotics in these patients essential. Drug dosing in critically ill patients with AKI, however, can be complicated. Critical illness and AKI can both substantially alter pharmacokinetic parameters as compared with healthy individuals or patients with end-stage renal disease. Furthermore, drug pharmacokinetic parameters are highly variable within the critically ill population. The volume of distribution of hydrophilic agents can increase as a result of fluid overload and decreased binding of the drug to serum proteins, and antibiotic loading doses must be adjusted upwards to account for these changes. Although renal elimination of drugs is decreased in patients with AKI, residual renal function in conjunction with renal replacement therapies (RRTs) result in enhanced drug clearance, and maintenance doses must reflect this situation. Antibiotic dosing decisions should be individualized to take into account patient-related, RRT-related, and drug-related factors. Efforts must also be made to optimize the attainment of antibiotic pharmacodynamic goals in this population.

Abstract
Extended daily dialysis (EDD) is increasingly popular in the treatment of acute renal failure (ARF). EDD could remove drugs to a much different degree compared with intermittent standard hemodialysis or continuous renal replacement therapies; however, there are only scarce data on how EDD influences the pharmacokinetics of frequently used drugs. The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of two quinolone antibiotics in patients who had anuric ARF and were being treated with EDD. Adult patients who were in the intensive care unit at a tertiary care university hospital and receiving moxifloxacin (n = 10) or levofloxacin (n = 5) therapy were included. The antibiotics were administered intravenously 8 h (400 mg of moxifloxacin) or 12 h (500 mg of levofloxacin) before EDD to study pharmacokinetics off and on EDD. Treatment lasted 8 h; blood and dialysate flow rates were 160 ml/min. In addition to standard pharmacokinetic parameters, the total dialysate concentration of both drugs was measured using a technically simple single-pass batch dialysis system for EDD. Moxifloxacin pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients who had ARF and were undergoing EDD were similar to those in healthy subjects without renal impairment. Levofloxacin, although removed by EDD, had a lower total clearance compared with healthy subjects. According to these findings, anuric critically ill patients who are undergoing EDD should be treated with the standard dosage of moxifloxacin (400 mg/d intravenously). The levofloxacin dosage, however, should be reduced according to the intensity of renal replacement therapy.

Abstract
Sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) is an increasingly popular extracorporeal renal replacement therapy for patients with renal failure in the intensive care unit (ICU). Several centers across the world employ this 'hybrid' technique, which has advantages of both intermittent and continuous methods. The goal of these centers is to provide an easy-to-perform treatment with reduced solute clearances for prolonged periods. Many centers use standard, sophisticated dialysis equipment for SLED. An increasing number of hospitals in Europe and South America employ a single-pass batch dialysis system, the procedural simplicity of which makes it an ideal modality for SLED in the ICU. All systems offer the advantages of flexible timing of treatment and reduced costs; their ease of handling means that SLED is readily accepted by ICU staff. Prospective controlled studies have shown that SLED clears small solutes with an efficacy comparable to that of intermittent hemodialysis and continuous venovenous hemofiltration (even when the latter employs high rates of fluid substitution). Cardiovascular tolerability associated with SLED is similar to that associated with continuous renal replacement therapy, even in severely ill patients. Nocturnal dialysis -- a special form of SLED -- has all the advantages outlined above, with the added benefit of unrestricted physician access to the patient during the day, minimizing the interference of renal replacement therapy with other ICU activities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Extended daily dialysis (EDD) combines the advantage of both intermittent hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy: excellent detoxification accompanied by cardiovascular tolerability. The aim of this study was to evaluate pharmacokinetics of meropenem and vancomycin in critically ill patients with renal failure undergoing EDD. DESIGN Prospective clinical study. SETTING Surgical intensive care unit in a tertiary care center. PATIENTS We studied intensive care patients with anuric acute renal failure being treated with EDD and receiving meropenem (n = 10) or vancomycin (n = 10) therapy. INTERVENTIONS The antibiotics were administered 6 hrs (1.0 g meropenem) or 12 hrs (1.0 g vancomycin) before EDD was started in order to study the pharmacokinetics before and during EDD. In addition to the application of different methods to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters, the total dialysate concentration of both drugs was measured. RESULTS Based on the amount of the drug recovered from the collected spent dialysate, the fraction of drug removed by one dialysis treatment was 18% for meropenem and 26% for vancomycin. Dosing regimes for intermittent hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy cannot be used for critically ill patients treated with EDD. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that patients treated with EDD by means of a high-flux dialyzer (polysulphone; surface area, 1.3 m; blood and dialysate flow, 160 mL/min; EDD time, 480 mins) and current dosing regimens run the risk of being significantly underdosed, which may have detrimental effects on critically ill patients with life-threatening infections. The exact dose has to be tailored according to weight and severity of illness as well as the current minimal inhibitory concentration against the incriminated bacteria. Whenever possible, therapeutic drug monitoring should be performed.
