Relationship between Target Time above Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Achievement Rate of Meropenem Using Monte Carlo Simulation and In-Hospital Survival in Patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bacteremia. Antibiotics (Basel) 2024; 13:219. [PMID: 38534654 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics13030219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteremia is associated with a high mortality rate, and meropenem (MEPM) is commonly used to treat it. However, the relationship between the time above the minimum inhibitory concentration (fT>MIC) of MEPM and its therapeutic efficacy in P. aeruginosa bacteremia has not been explored. This study aimed to investigate this relationship by defining the target % fT>MIC of MEPM as 75%. The retrospective study spanned 14 years and included hospitalized patients treated with MEPM for P. aeruginosa bacteremia. Monte Carlo simulation was used to calculate the probability of target attainment (PTA) for each patient, and the threshold for a PTA of 75% fT>MIC associated with in-hospital survival was determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The ROC curve-derived PTA associated with improved in-hospital survival was 65.0%, a significant finding in multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for patient background factors (odds ratio: 20.49, 95% confidence interval: 3.02-245.23, p = 0.005). This result suggests a dosing regimen that achieves a PTA of at least 65% when the target fT>MIC of MEPM for treating P. aeruginosa bacteremia is defined as 75%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in critically ill patients that require respiratory and/or cardiac support. Cefiderocol is a novel siderophore antibiotic that may require use in infected critically ill patients supported by ECMO. The objective of this study was to determine the loss of cefiderocol through an ex vivo adult ECMO circuit using a Quadrox-iD oxygenator. METHODS A 3/8-inch, simulated, ex vivo closed-loop ECMO circuit was prepared with a Quadrox-iD adult oxygenator and primed with fresh whole blood. Cefiderocol was administered into the circuit to achieve a starting concentration of approximately 90 mg/L. Post-oxygenator blood samples were collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, and 24 h after the addition of the drug to determine the loss in the circuit. A glass control jar was prepared with the same blood matrix and maintained at the same temperature to determine drug degradation. The experiment was conducted in triplicate. The rate of cefiderocol loss in the ECMO circuit was compared with that in the control by one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS At 0 h, the difference between the pre- and post-oxygenator concentrations was - 4 ± 4% (range 0 to - 7%). After 24 h, the cefiderocol percent reduction was similar between the ECMO circuit and control (50% ± 13 vs. 50% ± 9, p = 1.0). CONCLUSIONS The degradation rate of cefiderocol did not differ significantly within the ECMO circuit and control, suggesting no loss due to sequestration or adsorption. Pharmacokinetic studies in patients supported by ECMO are warranted to determine final dosing recommendations.

Abstract
PURPOSE Antimicrobial stewardship programs are important for reducing antimicrobial resistance because they can readjust antibiotic prescriptions to local guidelines, switch intravenous to oral administration, and reduce hospitalization times. Pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics (PK-PD) empirically based prescriptions and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) programs are essential for antimicrobial stewardship, but there is a need to fit protocols according to cost benefits. The cost benefits can be demonstrated by reducing toxicity and hospital stay, decreasing the amount of drug used per day, and preventing relapses in infection. Our aim was to review the data available on whether PK-PD empirically based prescriptions and TDM could improve the cost benefits of an antimicrobial stewardship program to decrease global hospital expenditures. METHODS A narrative review based on PubMed search with the relevant studies of vancomycin, aminoglycosides, beta-lactams, and voriconazole. RESULTS TDM protocols demonstrated important cost benefit for patients treated with vancomycin, aminoglycosides, and voriconazole mainly due to reduce toxicities and decreasing the hospital length of stay. In addition, PK-PD strategies that used infusion modifications to meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftazidime, and cefepime, such as extended or continuous infusion, demonstrated important cost benefits, mainly due to reducing daily drug needs and lengths of hospital stays. CONCLUSIONS TDM protocols and PK-PD empirically based prescriptions improve the cost-benefits and decrease the global hospital expenditures.

Abstract
Rationale: Data suggest that altered antimicrobial concentrations are likely during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Objectives: The primary aim of this analysis was to describe the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of antimicrobials in critically ill adult patients receiving ECMO. Our secondary aim was to determine whether current antimicrobial dosing regimens achieve effective and safe exposure. Methods: This study was a prospective, open-labeled, PK study in six ICUs in Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, and Switzerland. Serial blood samples were collected over a single dosing interval during ECMO for 11 antimicrobials. PK parameters were estimated using noncompartmental methods. Adequacy of antimicrobial dosing regimens were evaluated using predefined concentration exposures associated with maximal clinical outcomes and minimal toxicity risks. Measurements and Main Results: We included 993 blood samples from 85 patients. The mean age was 44.7 ± 14.4 years, and 61.2% were male. Thirty-eight patients (44.7%) were receiving renal replacement therapy during the first PK sampling. Large variations (coefficient of variation of ⩾30%) in antimicrobial concentrations were seen leading to more than fivefold variations in all PK parameters across all study antimicrobials. Overall, 70 (56.5%) concentration profiles achieved the predefined target concentration and exposure range. Target attainment rates were not significantly different between modes of ECMO and renal replacement therapy. Poor target attainment was observed across the most frequently used antimicrobials for ECMO recipients, including for oseltamivir (33.3%), piperacillin (44.4%), and vancomycin (27.3%). Conclusions: Antimicrobial PKs were highly variable in critically ill patients receiving ECMO, leading to poor target attainment rates. Clinical trial registered with the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12612000559819).

Antimicrobial Exposure in Critically Ill Patients with Sepsis-Associated Multi-Organ Dysfunction Requiring Extracorporeal Organ Support: A Narrative Review. Microorganisms 2023; 11:microorganisms11020473. [PMID: 36838438 PMCID: PMC9965524 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11020473] [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: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Sepsis is a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide. The pathophysiology of sepsis relies on the maladaptive host response to pathogens that fosters unbalanced organ crosstalk and induces multi-organ dysfunction, whose severity was directly associated with mortality. In septic patients, etiologic interventions aiming to reduce the pathogen load via appropriate antimicrobial therapy and the effective control of the source infection were demonstrated to improve clinical outcomes. Nonetheless, extracorporeal organ support represents a complementary intervention that may play a role in mitigating life-threatening complications caused by sepsis-associated multi-organ dysfunction. In this setting, an increasing amount of research raised concerns about the risk of suboptimal antimicrobial exposure in critically ill patients with sepsis, which may be worsened by the concomitant delivery of extracorporeal organ support. Accordingly, several strategies have been implemented to overcome this issue. In this narrative review, we discussed the pharmacokinetic features of antimicrobials and mechanisms that may favor drug removal during renal replacement therapy, coupled plasma filtration and absorption, therapeutic plasma exchange, hemoperfusion, extracorporeal CO2 removal and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. We also provided an overview of evidence-based strategies that may help the physician to safely prescribe effective antimicrobial doses in critically ill patients with sepsis-associated multi-organ dysfunction who receive extracorporeal organ support.

Abstract
Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) utilization is increasing on a global scale, and despite technological advances, minimal standardized approaches to pharmacotherapeutic management exist. This objective was to create a comprehensive review for medication dosing in ECMO based on the most current evidence. Data Sources: A literature search of PubMed was performed for all pertinent articles prior to 2022. The following search terms were utilized: ECMO, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, sedation, analgesia, antiepileptic, anticoagulation, antimicrobial, antifungal, nutrition. Retrospective cohort studies, case-control studies, case series, case reports, and ex vivo investigations were reviewed. Study Selection and Data Extraction: PubMed (1975 through July 2022) was the database used in the literature search. Non-English studies were excluded. Search terms included both drug class categories, specific drug names, ECMO, and pharmacokinetics. Data Synthesis: Medications with high protein binding (>70%) and high lipophilicity (logP > 2) are associated with circuit sequestration and the potential need for dose adjustment. Volume of distribution changes with ECMO may also impact dosing requirements of common critical care medications. Lighter sedation targets and analgosedation may help reduce sedative and analgesia requirements, whereas higher antiepileptic dosing is recommended. Vancomycin is minimally affected by the ECMO circuit and recommendations for dosing in critically ill adults are reasonable. Anticoagulation remains challenging as optimal aPTT goals have not been established. Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice: This review describes the anticipated impacts of ECMO circuitry on sedatives, analgesics, anticoagulation, antiepileptics, antimicrobials, antifungals, and nutrition support and provides recommendations for drug therapy management. Conclusions: Medication pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic parameters should be considered when determining the potential impact of the ECMO circuit on attainment of therapeutic effect and target serum drug concentrations, and should guide therapy choices and/or dose adjustments when data are not available.
