Severe Apnea in a Premature Infant after Accidental Vancomycin Overdose Responsive to Treatment with Exchange Transfusion
Background: Mostly seen toxicities following vancomycin are ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. We here report a very low birth weight preterm neonate who developed severe episodes of apnea after accidental iatrogenic vancomycin overdose, responsive to treatment with double volume exchange transfusion. Case report: A preterm neonate weighing 1380 grams received two doses of 10-fold of the normal do...
متن کاملAmikacin pharmacokinetics and suggested dosage modifications for the preterm infant.
The pharmacokinetics of amikacin administered intravenously at currently recommended doses (7.5 mg/kg every 12 h for infants with less than 7 days of life; 7.5 mg/kg every 8 h for infants with greater than 7 days of life) were studied in 28 preterm infants weighing less than 2,500 g (mean +/- standard deviation, 1.38 +/- 0.47 kg; postconceptional age, 30.50 +/- 2.86 weeks).

متن کاملClinical Pharmacokinetics of Amikacin in Neonates
Amikacin is a bactericidal aminoglycoside. Aminoglycosides inhibit bacterial protein synthesis. The antibacterial spectrum of amikacin is the broadest of aminoglycosides. Because of its resistance to many of the aminoglycosides-inactivating enzymes, it has a special role in hospitals where gentamicin- and tobramycin-resistant microorganisms are prevalent. Amikacin is active against the majority...
