Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex and life-threatening condition with multifactorial etiologies, ranging from ischemic injury to nephrotoxic exposures. Management is founded on treating the underlying cause of AKI, but supportive care-via fluid management, vasopressor therapy, kidney replacement therapy (KRT), and more-is also crucial. Blood pressure targets are often higher in AKI, and these can be achieved with fluids and vasopressors, some of which may be more kidney-protective than others. Initiation of KRT is controversial, and studies have not consistently demonstrated any benefit to early start dialysis. There are no targeted pharmacotherapies for AKI itself, but some do exist for complications of AKI; additionally, medications become a key aspect of AKI management because changes in renal function and dialysis support can lead to issues with both toxicities and underdosing. This review will cover existing literature on these and other aspects of AKI treatment. Additionally, this review aims to identify gaps and challenges and to offer recommendations for future research and clinical practice.

Early Versus Late Antipseudomonal β-Lactam Antibiotic Dose Adjustment in Critically Ill Sepsis Patients With Acute Kidney Injury: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study. Open Forum Infect Dis 2024; 11:ofae059. [PMID: 38434610 PMCID: PMC10906704 DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofae059] [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: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of sepsis, contributing to an increased mortality rate. However, some studies have demonstrated that renal function improves in sepsis patients with AKI within 48 hours, raising questions about the necessity for early antibiotic adjustment. This study evaluates the association between the timing of antipseudomonal β-lactam dose adjustment and the outcomes of critically ill sepsis patients with AKI. Methods A prospective, multicenter observational study of critically ill patients aged ≥18 years admitted to the intensive care unit with sepsis and AKI and started on antipseudomonal β-lactam therapy. After the initial dose, eligible patients were grouped as early β-lactam antibiotic (E-BLA) or late β-lactam antibiotic (L-BLA) dose adjustments based on the administration of subsequent renally adjusted doses within 24 hours and after 24 hours of sepsis recognition, respectively. The main outcome of interest was in-hospital mortality. Results Among 1185 patients screened, 224 (mean age, 62.7 ± 16.8 years; 62% were male) met inclusion criteria. Eighty-four and 140 patients were included in the E-BLA and L-BLA groups, respectively. Approximately half of the cohort presented with AKI stage II, and piperacillin-tazobactam was prescribed as initial empirical therapy in more than 50% of the cohort. In the multivariable Cox proportional hazards model, L-BLA was associated with a significant reduction in in-hospital mortality compared to E-BLA (hazard ratio, 0.588 [95% confidence interval, .355-.974]). Conclusions In sepsis patients with AKI, L-BLA was associated with in-hospital mortality benefits.

Abstract
With the increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens worldwide, antimicrobial resistance has become a significant public health concern. Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) exhibited excellent in vitro activity against many carbapenemase-producing pathogens, and was widely used for the treatment of various complicated infections. CAZ-AVI is well tolerated across all dosing regimens, and its associated acute kidney injury (AKI) in phase II/III clinical trials is rare. However, recent real-world studies have demonstrated that CAZ-AVI associated AKI was more frequent in real-world than in phase II and III clinical trials, particularly in patients receiving concomitant nephrotoxic agents, with critically ill patients being at a higher risk. Herein, we reviewed the safety data related to renal impairment of CAZ-AVI, and discussed its pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets and dosage adjustment in patients with impaired renal function. This review aimed to emphasize the importance for healthcare professionals to be aware of this adverse event of CAZ-AVI and provide practical insights into the dosage optimization in critically ill patients with renal dysfunction.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly reported adverse effect of administration of antimicrobials. While AKI can be associated with poorer outcomes, there is little information available to understand rates of AKI in children exposed to various antimicrobials. We performed a structured review using the PubMed and Embase databases. Articles were included if they provided an AKI definition in patients who were < 19 years of age receiving an antimicrobial and reported the frequency of AKI. Author-defined AKI rates were calculated for each study and mean pooled estimates for each antimicrobial were derived from among all study participants. Pooled estimates were also derived for those studies that reported AKI according to pRIFLE (pediatric risk, injury, failure, loss, end stage criteria), AKIN (acute kidney injury network), or KDIGO (kidney disease improving global outcomes) creatinine criteria. A total of 122 studies evaluating 28 antimicrobials met the inclusion criteria. Vancomycin was the most commonly studied drug: 11,514 courses across 44 included studies. Among the 27,285 antimicrobial exposures, the overall AKI rate was 13.2% (range 0-42.1% by drug), but the rate of AKI varied widely across studies (range 0-68.8%). Cidofovir (42.1%) and conventional amphotericin B (37.0%) had the highest pooled rates of author-defined AKI. Eighty-one studies used pRIFLE, AKIN, or KDIGO AKI criteria and the pooled rates of AKI were similar to author-defined AKI rates. In conclusion, antimicrobial-associated AKI is reported to occur frequently in children, but the rates of AKI varies widely across studies and drugs. Most published studies examined hospitalized patients and heterogeneity in study populations and in author definitions of AKI are barriers to a comparison of nephrotoxicity risk among antimicrobials in children.

Abstract
Rational drug use in special populations is a clinical problem that doctors and pharma-cists must consider seriously. Neonates are the most physiologically immature and vulnerable to drug dosing. There is a pronounced difference in the anatomical and physiological profiles be-tween neonates and older people, affecting the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs in vivo, ultimately leading to changes in drug concentration. Thus, dose adjustments in neonates are necessary to achieve adequate therapeutic concentrations and avoid drug toxicity. Over the past few decades, modeling and simulation techniques, especially physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling, have been increasingly used in pediatric drug development and clinical therapy. This rigorously designed and verified model can effectively compensate for the deficiencies of clinical trials in neonates, provide a valuable reference for clinical research design, and even replace some clinical trials to predict drug plasma concentrations in newborns. This review introduces previous findings regarding age-dependent physiological changes and pathological factors affecting neonatal pharmacokinetics, along with their research means. The application of PBPK modeling in neonatal pharmacokinetic studies of various medications is also reviewed. Based on this, we propose future perspectives on neonatal PBPK modeling and hope for its broader application.

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
The liver plays a major role in drug metabolism. Liver transplantation impacts the intrinsic metabolic capability and extrahepatic mechanisms of drug disposition and elimination. Different levels of inflammation and oxidative stress during transplantation, the process of liver regeneration, and the characteristics of the graft alter the amount of functional hepatocytes and activity of liver enzymes. Binding of drugs to plasma proteins is affected by the hyperbilirubinemia status and abnormal synthesis of albumin and alpha-1-acid glycoproteins. Postoperative intensive care complications such as biliary, circulatory, and cardiac also impact drug distribution. Renally eliminated antimicrobials commonly present reduced clearance due to hepatorenal syndrome and the use of nephrotoxic immunosuppressants. In addition, liver transplantation recipients are particularly susceptible to multidrug-resistant infections due to frequent manipulation, multiple hospitalizations, invasive devices, and frequent use of empiric broad-spectrum therapy. The selection of appropriate anti-infective therapy must consider the pathophysiological changes after transplantation that impact the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antibiotics and antifungal drugs.

Abstract
Antimicrobial prescription in critically ill patients represents a complex challenge due to the difficult balance between infection treatment and toxicity prevention. Underexposure to antibiotics and therapeutic failure or, conversely, drug overexposure and toxicity may both contribute to a worse prognosis. Moreover, changes in organ perfusion and dysfunction often lead to unpredictable pharmacokinetics. In critically ill patients, interindividual and intraindividual real-time β-lactam antibiotic dose adjustments according to the patient's condition are critical. The continuous infusion of β-lactams and the therapeutic monitoring of their concentration have both been proposed to improve their efficacy, but strong data to support their use are still lacking. The knowledge of the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets is poor and is mostly based on observational data. In patients with renal or hepatic failure, selecting the right dose is even more tricky due to changes in drug clearance, distribution, and the use of extracorporeal circuits. Intermittent usage may further increase the dosing conundrum. Recent data have emerged linking overexposure to β-lactams to central nervous system toxicity, mitochondrial recovery delay, and microbiome changes. In addition, it is well recognized that β-lactam exposure facilitates resistance selection and that correct dosing can help to overcome it. In this review, we discuss recent data regarding real-time β-lactam antibiotic dose adjustment, options in special populations, and the impacts on mitochondria and the microbiome.

Abstract
The proper posology of antibiotics in the critically ill in CRRT is difficult to assess. We therefore performed a prospective observational cohort study to make clear hints in this topic. Our results reveal a high Sieving Coefficient for all antibiotics, equal to or higher than those described in previous papers. CVVH clearance in relation to total body clearance was significant, (i.e., >than 25% for all classes). A strong correlation between the antibiotic concentrations obtained in plasma and ultrafiltrate was found both at the peak and in the valley, with the determination of two equations that allow a new method for calculating the amount of antibiotic lost in CVVH both for trough levels and peak. Based on the results of our study and considering the limitations we believe that we can extrapolate the following final considerations: (1) it is likely to carry out a loading dose for the main antibiotics (2) subsequent administrations must take into account the daily loss identified by the linear regression equation. This angular coefficient gives the idea that the average daily loss of given antibiotic is about 25%; this implies that on the basis of the linear regression equation that correlates ultrafiltered/plasma antibiotic concentration, the dosage should be increased by 25% every day, while still ensuring a daily plasma TDM of the drug.

Abstract
The outcome for critically ill patients is burdened by a double mortality rate and a longer hospital stay in the case of sepsis or septic shock. The adequate use of antibiotics may impact on the outcome since they may affect the pharmacokinetics (Pk) and pharmacodynamics (Pd) of antibiotics in such patients. Acute renal failure (ARF) occurs in about 50% of septic patients, and the consequent need for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) makes the renal elimination rate of most antibiotics highly variable. Antibiotics doses should be reduced in patients experiencing ARF, in accordance with the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), whereas posology should be increased in the case of CRRT. Since different settings of CRRT may be used, identifying a standard dosage of antibiotics is very difficult, because there is a risk of both oversimplification and failing the therapeutic efficacy. Indeed, it has been seen that, in over 25% of cases, the antibiotic therapy does not reach the necessary concentration target mainly due to lack of the proper minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) achievement. The aim of this narrative review is to clarify whether shared algorithms exist, allowing them to inform the daily practice in the proper antibiotics posology for critically ill patients undergoing CRRT.

Abstract
Objectives The addition of novel β-lactamase inhibitors to carbapenems restores the activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. The aim of this study was to summarize the evidence on the efficacy and safety of novel carbapenem–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations. Methods We conducted a meta-analysis of clinical trials comparing novel carbapenem–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations with comparators to assess the clinical and microbiological responses, mortality, and adverse events (AEs). Results A total of 1,984 patients were included. The pooled risk ratios (RRs) of clinical cure, microbiological eradication, all-cause mortality, and 28-day mortality were 1.11 (95% CI: 0.98–1.26), 0.98 (95% CI: 0.82–1.16), 0.90 (95% CI: 0.49–0.94), and 0.68 (95% CI: 0.49–0.94) between the novel carbapenem–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations and control groups. Sensitivity analysis revealed that the phase II trial of imipenem–cilastatin/relebactam (ICR) against complicated urinary tract infections could be the most important factor of heterogeneity for the microbiological response. The therapeutic effect of novel carbapenem–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations was better in meropenem–vaborbactam (MEV), phase III trials, and number of patients less than 200. The RRs of AEs from any cause and serious adverse events (SAEs) for patients receiving novel carbapenem–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations were 0.98 (95% CI: 0.93–1.04) and 1.01 (95% CI: 0.75–1.36), respectively. Conclusions ICR and MEV were superior to comparators for clinical cure and survival rate in the treatment of complicated infections, and both were as tolerable as the comparators.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Antibiotic prescription is a challenging issue in critical care settings. Different pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, polypharmacy, drug interactions, and high incidence of multidrug-resistant microorganisms in this population can influence the selection, safety, and efficacy of prescribed antibiotics. AREAS COVERED In the current article, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar for estimating renal function in acute kidney injury, nephrotoxicity of commonly used antibiotics, and nephrotoxin stewardship in intensive care units. EXPERT OPINION Early estimation of kidney function with an accurate method may be helpful to optimize antimicrobial treatment in critically ill patients. Different antibiotic dosing regimens may be required for patients with acute kidney injury. In many low-resource settings, therapeutic drug monitoring is not available for antibiotics. Acute kidney injury may influence treatment effectiveness and patient outcome.

The Serum Concentration of Vancomycin as a Diagnostic Predictor of Nephrotoxic Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11010112. [PMID: 35052989 PMCID: PMC8772755 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11010112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The impact of serum concentrations of vancomycin is a controversial topic. Results: 182 critically ill patients were evaluated using vancomycin and 63 patients were included in the study. AKI occurred in 44.4% of patients on the sixth day of vancomycin use. Vancomycin higher than 17.53 mg/L between the second and the fourth days of use was a predictor of AKI, preceding AKI diagnosis for at least two days, with an area under the curve of 0.806 (IC 95% 0.624–0.987, p = 0.011). Altogether, 46.03% of patients died, and in the Cox analysis, the associated factors were age, estimated GFR, CPR, and vancomycin between the second and the fourth days. Discussion: The current 2020 guidelines recommend using Bayesian-derived AUC monitoring rather than trough concentrations. However, due to the higher number of laboratory analyses and the need for an application to calculate the AUC, many centers still use therapeutic trough levels between 15 and 20 mg/L. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that a narrower range of serum concentration of vancomycin was a predictor of AKI in critically ill septic patients, preceding the diagnosis of AKI by at least 48 h, and it can be a useful monitoring tool when AUC cannot be used.

Sci Rep 2021; 11:23836. [PMID: 34903805 PMCID: PMC8668912 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-03450-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Studies have shown significant variability in antibiotic trough concentrations in critically ill patients receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT). The purpose of this study was to assess whether adding beta-lactam antibiotics to dialysate solution can maintain stable antibiotic concentrations during RRT in experimental conditions. A single compartment model reflecting the patient was constructed and connected to the RRT machine. Dialysate fluid was prepared in three different concentrations of meropenem (0 mg/L; 16 mg/L; 64 mg/L). For each dialysate concentration various combinations of dialysate and blood flow rates were tested by taking different samples. Meropenem concentration in all samples was calculated using spectrophotometry method. Constructed experimental model results suggest that decrease in blood meropenem concentration can be up to 35.6%. Moreover, experimental data showed that antibiotic loss during RRT can be minimized and stable plasma antibiotic concentration can be achieved with the use of a 16 mg/L Meropenem dialysate solution. Furthermore, increasing meropenem concentration up to 64 mg/L is associated with an increase antibiotic concentration up to 18.7–78.8%. Administration of antibiotics to dialysate solutions may be an effective method of ensuring a constant concentration of antibiotics in the blood of critically ill patients receiving RRT.

The Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2020 (J-SSCG 2020). J Intensive Care 2021; 9:53. [PMID: 34433491 PMCID: PMC8384927 DOI: 10.1186/s40560-021-00555-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 83] [Impact Index Per Article: 27.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2020 (J-SSCG 2020), a Japanese-specific set of clinical practice guidelines for sepsis and septic shock created as revised from J-SSCG 2016 jointly by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine, was first released in September 2020 and published in February 2021. An English-language version of these guidelines was created based on the contents of the original Japanese-language version. The purpose of this guideline is to assist medical staff in making appropriate decisions to improve the prognosis of patients undergoing treatment for sepsis and septic shock. We aimed to provide high-quality guidelines that are easy to use and understand for specialists, general clinicians, and multidisciplinary medical professionals. J-SSCG 2016 took up new subjects that were not present in SSCG 2016 (e.g., ICU-acquired weakness [ICU-AW], post-intensive care syndrome [PICS], and body temperature management). The J-SSCG 2020 covered a total of 22 areas with four additional new areas (patient- and family-centered care, sepsis treatment system, neuro-intensive treatment, and stress ulcers). A total of 118 important clinical issues (clinical questions, CQs) were extracted regardless of the presence or absence of evidence. These CQs also include those that have been given particular focus within Japan. This is a large-scale guideline covering multiple fields; thus, in addition to the 25 committee members, we had the participation and support of a total of 226 members who are professionals (physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, clinical engineers, and pharmacists) and medical workers with a history of sepsis or critical illness. The GRADE method was adopted for making recommendations, and the modified Delphi method was used to determine recommendations by voting from all committee members.As a result, 79 GRADE-based recommendations, 5 Good Practice Statements (GPS), 18 expert consensuses, 27 answers to background questions (BQs), and summaries of definitions and diagnosis of sepsis were created as responses to 118 CQs. We also incorporated visual information for each CQ according to the time course of treatment, and we will also distribute this as an app. The J-SSCG 2020 is expected to be widely used as a useful bedside guideline in the field of sepsis treatment both in Japan and overseas involving multiple disciplines.

Abstract
The optimal timing of renal replacement therapy (RRT) in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) has been much debated. Over the past five years several studies have provided new guidance for evidence-based decision-making. High-quality evidence now supports an approach of expectant management in critically ill patients with AKI, where RRT may be deferred up to 72 h unless a life-threatening indication develops. Nevertheless, physicians’ judgment still plays a central role in identifying appropriate patients for expectant management.

Abstract
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is the preferred modality of extracorporeal renal support for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). The dose of CRRT is reported as effluent flow in ml/kg body weight per hour (ml/kg/h). Solid evidence supports that the delivered CRRT effluent dose for critically ill patients with AKI should be 20-25 ml/kg/h on average. To account for treatment interruptions and the natural decline in filter efficiency over time, it is recommended to prescribe 25-30 ml/kg/h of effluent dose. However, transient higher doses of CRRT in specific clinical scenarios may be needed to accommodate specific solute control needs of a particular patient at a given time. Consequently, there should be consideration of the potential adverse consequences of non-selective clearance such as undesired antimicrobials and nutrients removal. In this manuscript, we provide a summary of evidence related to CRRT dose, practical aspects for its calculation at the time of prescribing CRRT, and considerations for addressing the expected gap between prescribed and delivered CRRT dose. We also provide a framework for monitoring and implementation of CRRT dose as a quality indicator of CRRT delivery.

Abstract
The Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2020 (J-SSCG 2020), a Japanese-specific set of clinical practice guidelines for sepsis and septic shock created as revised from J-SSCG 2016 jointly by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine, was first released in September 2020 and published in February 2021. An English-language version of these guidelines was created based on the contents of the original Japanese-language version. The purpose of this guideline is to assist medical staff in making appropriate decisions to improve the prognosis of patients undergoing treatment for sepsis and septic shock. We aimed to provide high-quality guidelines that are easy to use and understand for specialists, general clinicians, and multidisciplinary medical professionals. J-SSCG 2016 took up new subjects that were not present in SSCG 2016 (e.g., ICU-acquired weakness [ICU-AW], post-intensive care syndrome [PICS], and body temperature management). The J-SSCG 2020 covered a total of 22 areas with four additional new areas (patient- and family-centered care, sepsis treatment system, neuro-intensive treatment, and stress ulcers). A total of 118 important clinical issues (clinical questions, CQs) were extracted regardless of the presence or absence of evidence. These CQs also include those that have been given particular focus within Japan. This is a large-scale guideline covering multiple fields; thus, in addition to the 25 committee members, we had the participation and support of a total of 226 members who are professionals (physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, clinical engineers, and pharmacists) and medical workers with a history of sepsis or critical illness. The GRADE method was adopted for making recommendations, and the modified Delphi method was used to determine recommendations by voting from all committee members. As a result, 79 GRADE-based recommendations, 5 Good Practice Statements (GPS), 18 expert consensuses, 27 answers to background questions (BQs), and summaries of definitions and diagnosis of sepsis were created as responses to 118 CQs. We also incorporated visual information for each CQ according to the time course of treatment, and we will also distribute this as an app. The J-SSCG 2020 is expected to be widely used as a useful bedside guideline in the field of sepsis treatment both in Japan and overseas involving multiple disciplines.

Abstract
Introduction Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common problems seen in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), with an overall 27% incidence. Besides many other factors, nephrotoxic medications (Nephrotoxins; Ntx) are also responsible for a large proportion of potentially avoidable pediatric AKI, directly accounting for 16% of AKI events. Objective To assess potential associations between nephrotoxic drugs and the risk of developing AKI in children admitted in PICU. Material and methods This is a retrospective cross-sectional study. Children (aged 1 month - 18 years) admitted to the PICU, with a length of stay >24 hours, were included. AKI was defined as according to KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) criteria. Mild AKI was defined as a rise in creatinine value of 0.3 mg/dl from presenting value at a 24-hour interval. Patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of AKI. All medications administered in the ICU were assessed for nephrotoxicity through a review of adverse reactions mentioned in the Pediatric Dosage Handbook, along with consultation with a clinical pharmacist. Results Among 752 patients, the mean age was 4.8 years ± 4.37. There were 57.3% male and 42.7% female children. Among the exposed children, 37.4% received one drug, 32.4% received two drugs and 12.1% had high nephrotoxin exposure. The most commonly used drug was vancomycin (16.8%), as a single Ntx; vancomycin/colistin (12.9%), in dual nephrotoxic combination; and vancomycin/colistin/amphotericin (2.9%) in highly exposed children (i.e., with equal or more than three). Overall, the incidence of AKI was 14.9%. Conclusion Nephrotoxins are potentially avoidable risk factors in critically ill children. Whenever a combination of medications is required, it’s advisable to review all medications for better protection of kidneys and preventing of acute kidney injury.

Optimal levofloxacin dosing regimens in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury receiving continuous renal replacement therapy. J Crit Care 2020; 63:154-160. [PMID: 33012583 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2020.09.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2020] [Revised: 09/16/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSES To determine appropriate dosing of levofloxacin in critically ill patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). METHODS All necessary pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters from critically ill patients were obtained to develop mathematical models with first order elimination. Levofloxacin concentration-time profiles were calculated to determine the efficacy based on the probability of target attainment (PTA) of AUC24h/MIC ≥50 for Gram-positive and AUC24h/MIC ≥125 for Gram-negative infections. A group of 5000 virtual patients was simulated and tested using Monte Carlo simulations for each dose in the models. The optimal dosing regimens were defined as the dose achieved target PTA at least 90% of the virtual patients. RESULTS No conventional, FDA approved regimens achieved at least 90% of PTA for Gram-negative infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa at MIC of 2 mg/L. The successful dose (1750 mg on day 1, then 1500 mg q 24 h) was far exceeded the maximum FDA-approved doses. For Gram-positive infections, a levofloxacin 750 mg q 24 h was sufficient to attain PTA target of ~90% at the MIC of 2 mg/L for Streptococcus pneumoniae. CONCLUSIONS Levofloxacin cannot be recommended as an empiric monotherapy for serious Gram-negative infections in patients receiving CRRT due to suboptimal efficacy.

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
Antibiotic renal dose adjustments are determined in patients with stable chronic kidney disease and may not translate to patients in late-phase trials and practice. Ceftolozane/tazobactam, ceftazidime/avibactam, and telavancin all carry precautionary statements for reduced clinical response in patients with baseline creatinine clearance of 30-50 mL/min, potentially due to unnecessary dose reduction in the setting of acute kidney injury (AKI). In this review, we discuss the regulatory landscape for antibiotics eliminated by the kidney and highlight the importance of the first 48 hours of therapy. Using a clinical database, we identified AKI on admission in a substantial proportion of patients with pneumonia (27.1%), intraabdominal (19.5%), urinary tract (20.0%), or skin and skin structure infections (9.7%) that resolved by 48 hours in 57.2% of cases. We suggest that deferred renal dose reduction of wide therapeutic index antibiotics could improve outcomes in patients with infectious diseases.

Abstract
Introduction and Aim There have been few studies to evaluate the monitoring of plasmatic concentrations of vancomycin in septic patients and their association with acute kidney injury (AKI) and death. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of adequate, subtherapeutic, and toxic serum concentrations of vancomycin in hospitalized septic patients and to associate the adequacy of therapeutic monitoring with clinical outcomes. Methodology This was a cohort-unicentric study that evaluated septic patients aged >18 years using vancomycin admitted to clinical and surgical wards of a Brazilian university center from August 2016 to July 2017 in a daily and uninterrupted way. We excluded patients with AKI prior to the introduction of vancomycin or with AKI development <48 hours after use, patients with AKI of other etiologies, stage V chronic kidney disease, and pregnant women. Results We evaluated 225 patients, and 135 were included. Evaluation of serum concentration of vancomycin was realized in 94.1%, and of those, 59.3% presented toxic concentrations. The prevalence of AKI was 27.4% and happened on average on the ninth day of vancomycin usage. Between the fourth and sixth days, vancomycin serum concentration of >21.5 mg/L was a predictor of AKI, with area under the curve of 0.803 (95% CI 0.62-0.98, p=0.005), preceding the diagnosis of AKI by at least 3 days. Of these patients, 20.7% died, and serum concentrations of vancomycin between the fourth and sixth days were identified as risk factors associated with negative outcomes. Conclusion Serum concentration of vancomycin is an excellent predictor of AKI in patients admitted to wards, preceding the diagnosis of AKI by at least 72 hours. Toxic concentrations of vancomycin are associated with AKI, and AKI was a risk factor for death. Also, serum concentration of vancomycin >21.5 mg/L was the only variable associated with death in the Cox model.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is very common in critically ill patients requiring renal replacement therapy. Despite the advancement in medicine, the mortality rate from septic shock can be as high as 60%. This manuscript describes drug-dosing considerations and challenges for clinicians. For instance, drugs’ pharmacokinetic changes (e.g., decreased protein binding and increased volume of distribution) and drug property changes in critical illness affecting solute or drug clearance during renal replacement therapy. Moreover, different types of renal replacement therapy (intermittent hemodialysis, prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy or sustained low-efficiency dialysis, and continuous renal replacement therapy) are discussed to describe how to optimize the drug administration strategies. With updated literature, pharmacodynamic targets and empirical dosing recommendations for commonly used antibiotics in critically ill patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy are outlined. It is vital to utilize local epidemiology and resistance patterns to select appropriate antibiotics to optimize clinical outcomes. Therapeutic drug monitoring should be used, when possible. This review should be used as a guide to develop a patient-specific antibiotic therapy plan.

Basic Principles of Antibiotics Dosing in Patients with Sepsis and Acute Kidney Damage Treated with Continuous Venovenous Hemodiafiltration.

Abstract
Abstract
Sepsis is the leading cause of acute kidney damage in patients in intensive care units. Pathophysiological mechanisms of the development of acute kidney damage in patients with sepsis may be hemodynamic and non-hemodynamic. Patients with severe sepsis, septic shock and acute kidney damage are treated with continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration. Sepsis, acute kidney damage, and continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration have a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antibiotics. The impact dose of antibiotics is increased due to the increased volume of distribution (increased administration of crystalloids, hypoalbuminemia, increased capillary permeability syndrome toproteins). The dose of antibiotic maintenance depends on renal, non-renal and extracorporeal clearance. In the early stage of sepsis, there is an increased renal clearance of antibiotics, caused by glomerular hyperfiltration, while in the late stage of sepsis, as the consequence of the development of acute renal damage, renal clearance of antibiotics is reduced. The extracorporeal clearance of antibiotics depends on the hydrosolubility and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the antibiotic, but also on the type of continuous dialysis modality, dialysis dose, membrane type, blood flow rate, dialysis flow rate, net filtration rate, and effluent flow rate. Early detection of sepsis and acute kidney damage, early target therapy, early administration of antibiotics at an appropriate dose, and early extracorporeal therapy for kidney replacement and removal of the inflammatory mediators can improve the outcome of patients with sepsis in intensive care units.

Abstract
Studies on vancomycin pharmacokinetics in acute kidney injury (AKI) patients on high-volume peritoneal dialysis (HVPD) are lacking. We studied the pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) vancomycin in AKI patients treated by HVPD who received a prescribed single IV dose of vancomycin (15 - 20 mg/kg total body weight) to determine the extent of vancomycin removal and to establish vancomycin dosing guidelines for the empirical treatment of AKI patients receiving HVPD. The application of 18 mg/kg vancomycin every 48 - 72 hours in AKI patients undergoing HVPD was required to maintain therapeutic concentrations.

Abstract
Introduction Treatment options for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections are limited and CRE infections remain associated with high clinical failure and mortality rates, particularly in vulnerable patient populations. A Phase 3, multinational, open-label, randomized controlled trial (TANGO II) was conducted from 2014 to 2017 to evaluate the efficacy/safety of meropenem–vaborbactam monotherapy versus best available therapy (BAT) for CRE. Methods A total of 77 patients with confirmed/suspected CRE infection (bacteremia, hospital-acquired/ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, complicated intra-abdominal infection, complicated urinary tract infection/acute pyelonephritis) were randomized, and 47 with confirmed CRE infection formed the primary analysis population (microbiologic-CRE-modified intent-to-treat, mCRE-MITT). Eligible patients were randomized 2:1 to meropenem–vaborbactam (2 g/2 g over 3 h, q8h for 7–14 days) or BAT (mono/combination therapy with polymyxins, carbapenems, aminoglycosides, tigecycline; or ceftazidime-avibactam alone). Efficacy endpoints included clinical cure, Day-28 all-cause mortality, microbiologic cure, and overall success (clinical cure + microbiologic eradication). Safety endpoints included adverse events (AEs) and laboratory findings. Results Within the mCRE-MITT population, cure rates were 65.6% (21/32) and 33.3% (5/15) [95% confidence interval (CI) of difference, 3.3% to 61.3%; P = 0.03)] at End of Treatment and 59.4% (19/32) and 26.7% (4/15) (95% CI of difference, 4.6% to 60.8%; P = 0.02) at Test of Cure;.Day-28 all-cause mortality was 15.6% (5/32) and 33.3% (5/15) (95% CI of difference, − 44.7% to 9.3%) for meropenem–vaborbactam versus BAT, respectively. Treatment-related AEs and renal-related AEs were 24.0% (12/50) and 4.0% (2/50) for meropenem–vaborbactam versus 44.0% (11/25) and 24.0% (6/25) for BAT. Exploratory risk–benefit analyses of composite clinical failure or nephrotoxicity favored meropenem–vaborbactam versus BAT (31.3% [10/32] versus 80.0% [12/15]; 95% CI of difference, − 74.6% to − 22.9%; P < 0.001). Conclusions Monotherapy with meropenem–vaborbactam for CRE infection was associated with increased clinical cure, decreased mortality, and reduced nephrotoxicity compared with BAT.

Abstract
Introduction Vancomycin pharmacokinetic data in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) on high-volume peritoneal dialysis (HVPD) are lacking. The aims were to study the pharmacokinetics of i.v. vancomycin in patients with AKI treated by HVPD who received an i.v. dose of vancomycin (15–20 mg/kg), to determine the vancomycin removal, and to establish vancomycin dosing and evaluation pharmacokinetics target attainment achievement for the empirical treatment of patients with AKI treated by HVPD. Methods Vancomycin was administered 1 hour before dialysis start. Samples of all dialysate were collected for a 24-hour period. Blood samples were collected after 1, 2, 4, and 24 hours of therapy. Vancomycin concentrations were determined using a liquid chromatographic (high-performance liquid chromatography)–fluorescence method. Pharmacokinetic calculations were completed assuming a 1-compartment model. Results Ten patients completed the study. The mean vancomycin dose administered was 18.0 ± 2.95 mg/kg (14.7–21.8 mg/kg) on the day of study (first day) and the mean percentage of vancomycin removal by HVPD was 21.7% ± 2.2% (16%–29%). Peritoneal clearance was 8.1 ± 2.2 ml/min (5.3–12 ml/min). The serum vancomycin half-life was 71.2 ± 24.7 hours (42–110 hours) during HVPD session, the maximum serum concentration was 26.2 ± 3.5 mg/l, which occurred 1 hour after vancomycin administration and HVPD start. Area under the curve (AUC)0–24/minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ratio ≥400 was achieved in all patients when MIC = 1 mg/l was considered. Conclusion HVPD removes considerable amounts of vancomycin in septic patients with AKI. Administration of 18 mg/kg vancomycin each 48 to 72 hours in patients with AKI undergoing HVPD was required to reach and maintain therapeutic concentrations.

Abstract
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is commonly used to provide renal support for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury, particularly patients who are hemodynamically unstable. A variety of techniques that differ in their mode of solute clearance may be used, including continuous venovenous hemofiltration with predominantly convective solute clearance, continuous venovenous hemodialysis with predominantly diffusive solute clearance, and continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration, which combines both dialysis and hemofiltration. The present article compares CRRT with other modalities of renal support and reviews indications for initiation of renal replacement therapy, as well as dosing and technical aspects in the management of CRRT.

Abstract
Background Cefepime can be removed by continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) due to its pharmacokinetics. The purpose of this study is to define the optimal cefepime dosing regimens for critically ill patients receiving CRRT using Monte Carlo simulations (MCS). Methods The CRRT models of cefepime disposition during 48 h with different effluent rates were developed using published pharmacokinetic parameters, patient demographic data, and CRRT settings. Pharmacodynamic target was the cumulative percentage of a 48-h period of at least 70% that free cefepime concentration exceeds the four times susceptible breakpoint of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC of 8). All recommended dosing regimens from available clinical resources were evaluated for the probability of target attainment (PTA) using MCS to generate drug disposition in a group of 5000 virtual patients for each dose. The optimal doses were defined as achieving the PTA at least 90% of virtual patients with lowest daily doses and the acceptable risk of neurotoxicity. Results Optimal cefepime doses in critically ill patients receiving CRRT with Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) recommended effluent rates were a regimen of 2 g loading dose followed by 1.5–1.75 g every 8 h for Gram-negative infections with a neurotoxicity risk of < 17%. Cefepime dosing regimens from this study were considerably higher than the recommended doses from clinical resources. Conclusion All recommended dosing regimens for patients receiving CRRT from available clinical resources failed to achieve the PTA target. The optimal dosing regimens were suggested based on CRRT modalities, MIC values, and different effluent rates. Clinical validation is warranted.

Abstract
Objectives To use a population pharmacokinetic approach to define maximally effective meropenem dosing recommendations for treatment of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in a large cohort of patients with septic shock. Methods Adult patients with septic shock and conserved renal function, treated with meropenem, were eligible for inclusion. Seven blood samples were collected during a single dosing interval and meropenem concentrations were measured by a validated HPLC-MS/MS method. Monte Carlo simulations were employed to define optimum dosing regimens for treatment of empirical or targeted therapy of A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa. EudraCT-no. 2014-002555-26 and NCT02240277. Results Fifty patients were included, 26 male and 24 female, with a median age of 64 years with an all-cause 90 day mortality of 34%. A two-compartment linear model including creatinine clearance (CLCR) as a covariate best described meropenem pharmacokinetics. For empirical treatment of A. baumannii, 2000 mg/6 h was required by intermittent (30 min) or prolonged (3 h) infusion, whereas 6000 mg/day was required with continuous infusion. For P. aeruginosa, 2000 mg/8 h or 1000 mg/6 h was required for both empirical and targeted treatment. In patients with a CLCR of ≤ 100 mL/min, successful concentration targets could be reached with intermittent dosing of 1000 mg/8 h. Conclusions In patients with septic shock and possible augmented renal clearance, doses should be increased and/or administration should be performed by prolonged or continuous infusion to increase the likelihood of achieving therapeutic drug concentrations. In patients with normal renal function, however, standard dosing seems to be sufficient.

Abstract
AIMS To summarize and extend the main conclusions and recommendations relevant to drug management during acute kidney disease (AKD) as agreed at the 16th Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) consensus conference. METHODS Using a modified Delphi method to achieve consensus, experts attending the 16th ADQI consensus conference reviewed and appraised the existing literature on drug management during AKD and identified recommendations for clinical practice and future research. The group focussed on drugs with one of the following characteristics: (i) predominant renal excretion; (ii) nephrotoxicity; (iii) potential to alter glomerular function; and (iv) presence of metabolites that are modified in AKD and may affect other organs. RESULTS We recommend that medication reconciliation should occur at admission and discharge, at AKD diagnosis and change in AKD phase, and when the patient's condition changes. Strategies to avoid adverse drug reactions in AKD should seek to minimize adverse events from overdosing and nephrotoxicity and therapeutic failure from under-dosing or incorrect drug selection. Medication regimen assessment or introduction of medications during the AKD period should consider the nephrotoxic potential, altered renal and nonrenal elimination, the effects of toxic metabolites and drug interactions and altered pharmacodynamics in AKD. A dynamic monitoring plan including repeated serial assessment of clinical features, utilization of renal diagnostic tests and therapeutic drug monitoring should be used to guide medication regimen assessment. CONCLUSIONS Drug management during different phases of AKD requires an individualized approach and frequent re-assessment. More research is needed to avoid drug associated harm and therapeutic failure.

Abstract
Intravenous acetaminophen is an adjuvant to opioid use in critically ill and surgical patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The objective of this study was to determine the ex vivo transmembrane clearance of intravenous acetaminophen during continuous hemofiltration and hemodialysis. Transmembrane clearance was assessed using a validated ex vivo bovine blood model for CRRT using an F8 or HF1400 hemodiafilter. Ultrafiltrate and dialysate flow rates were 1, 2, and 3 L/h. Urea and acetaminophen clearances were calculated and compared. Acetaminophen was readily cleared by continuous hemofiltration with both hemodiafilters. Acetaminophen clearance rates were 92-98% of ultrafiltrate production rates. Similarly, dialytic acetaminophen clearances approximated dialysate flow rates for both hemodiafilters. Acetaminophen is readily cleared by CRRT. Patients receiving CRRT and acetaminophen may require increased doses for adequate pain control.

Abstract
Appropriate antibiotic dosing is critical to improve outcomes in critically ill patients with sepsis. The addition of continuous renal replacement therapy makes achieving appropriate antibiotic dosing more difficult. The lack of continuous renal replacement therapy standardization results in treatment variability between patients and may influence whether appropriate antibiotic exposure is achieved. The aim of this study was to determine if continuous renal replacement therapy effluent flow rate impacts attaining appropriate antibiotic concentrations when conventional continuous renal replacement therapy antibiotic doses were used. This study used Monte Carlo simulations to evaluate the effect of effluent flow rate variance on pharmacodynamic target attainment for cefepime, ceftazidime, levofloxacin, meropenem, piperacillin, and tazobactam. Published demographic and pharmacokinetic parameters for each antibiotic were used to develop a pharmacokinetic model. Monte Carlo simulations of 5000 patients were evaluated for each antibiotic dosing regimen at the extremes of Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines recommended effluent flow rates (20 and 35 mL/kg/h). The probability of target attainment was calculated using antibiotic-specific pharmacodynamic targets assessed over the first 72 hours of therapy. Most conventional published antibiotic dosing recommendations, except for levofloxacin, reach acceptable probability of target attainment rates when effluent rates of 20 or 35 mL/kg/h are used.

Abstract
Timely recognition of patients at risk or with possible acute kidney injury (AKI) is essential for early intervention to minimize further damage and improve outcome. Initial management of patients with suspected and persistent AKI should include thorough clinical assessment of all patients with AKI to identify reversible factors, including fluid volume status, potential nephrotoxins, and an assessment of the underlying health of the kidney. Based on these assessments, early interventions to provide appropriate and adequate fluid resuscitation while avoiding fluid overload, removal of nephrotoxins, and adjustment of drug doses according to the level of kidney function derangement are important. The judicious use of diuretics for fluid overload and/or in cardiac decompensated patients and introduction of early enteral nutritional support need to be considered to improve outcomes in AKI. Although these basic principles are well recognized, their application in clinical practice in low resource settings is often limited due to lack of education, availability of resources, and lack of trained personnel, which limits access to care. We report the consensus recommendations of the 18th Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative meeting in Hyderabad, India, on strategies to evaluate patients with suspected AKI and initiate measures for prevention and management to improve outcomes, particularly in low resource settings. These recomendations provide a framework for caregivers, who are often primary care physicians, nurses, and other allied healthcare personnel, to manage patients with AKI in resource poor countries.

Abstract
The contribution of nephrotoxic medications to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) is becoming better understood concomitant with the increased incidence of AKI in children. Treatment of AKI is not yet available, so prevention continues to be the most effective approach. There is an opportunity to mitigate severity and prevent the occurrence of AKI if children at increased risk are identified early and nephrotoxins are used judiciously. Early detection of AKI is limited by the dependence of nephrologists on serum creatinine as an indicator. Promising new biomarkers may offer early detection of AKI prior to the rise in serum creatinine. Early detection of evolving AKI is improving and offers opportunities for better management of nephrotoxins. However, the identification of patients at increased risk will remain an important first step, with a focus on the use of biomarker testing and interpretation of the results.

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
Sepsis is the most common cause of death in critically ill patients and is associated with multiorgan failure, including acute kidney injury (AKI). This situation can require acute renal support and increase mortality. Therefore, it is essential to administer antimicrobials in doses that achieve adequate serum levels, avoiding both overdosing and drug toxicity as well as underdosing and the risk of antibiotic resistance and higher mortality. Currently, there are no validated guidelines on antibiotic dose adjustments in septic patients with AKI. The current recommendations were extrapolated from studies conducted in noncritical patients with end‐stage chronic kidney disease receiving chronic renal replacement therapy. This study aimed to review and discuss the complexity of this issue, considering several factors related to drug metabolism, the characteristics of critically ill patients, the properties of antimicrobial drugs and dialysis methods.

Abstract
Purpose. Drug dose recommendations are not well defined in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) due to limited published data. Several guidelines and pharmacokinetic equations have been proposed as tools for CRRT drug dosing. Dose recommendations derived from these methods have yet to be compared or prospectively evaluated. Methods. A literature search of PubMed, Micromedex, and Embase was conducted for 40 drugs commonly used in the ICU to gather pharmacokinetic data acquired from patients with acute and chronic kidney disease as well as healthy volunteers. These data and that obtained from drug package inserts were gathered for use in three published CRRT drug dosing equations. Doses calculated for a model patient using each method were compared to doses suggested in a commonly used dosing text. Results. Full pharmacokinetic data was available for 18, 31, and 40 agents using acute kidney injury, end stage renal disease, and normal patient data, respectively. On average, calculated doses differed by 30% or more from the doses recommended by the renal dosing text for >50% of the medications. Conclusion. Wide variability in dose recommendations for patients undergoing CRRT exists when these equations are used. Alternate, validated dosing methods need to be developed for this at-risk patient population.

Abstract
Appropriate antibiotic dosing in critically ill, infected, patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is crucial to improve patient outcomes. Severe sepsis and septic shock result in changes in pharmacokinetic parameters, including increased volume of distribution, hypoalbuminemia, and changes in renal and nonrenal clearances. The lack of CRRT standardization, nonrecognition of how CRRT variability affects antibiotic removal, fear of antibiotic toxicity, and limited drug dosing resources all contribute to suboptimal antibiotic therapy. Even when antibiotic CRRT pharmacokinetic studies are available, they are often based on old CRRT methodologies that do not exist in contemporary CRRT practice, resulting in unhelpful/inaccurate dosing recommendations. Application of these older doses in Monte Carlo simulation studies reveals that many of the recommended dosing regimens will never attain pharmacodynamic targets. In this review, using cefepime as an example, we illustrate whether clinicians are likely to achieve pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets when the recommended dosing regimens are prescribed in this patient population. We encourage clinicians to aggressively dose antibiotics with large loading dose and higher maintenance doses to reach the targets.

Abstract
Continuous renal replacement therapy is frequently used to manage acute renal failure in critically ill patients. Antibiotic drugs used to treat infections in critically ill patients need to be dosed on the basis of the method of renal replacement therapy to be used, degree of residual renal function, and the sensitivity of the organism to be treated. Antibiotic dosing regimens must then be continuously monitored and adjusted according to modifications made to the renal replacement circuit and the patient’s underlying condition.
