Vancomycin Dosing in Neutropenic Patients
BACKGROUND To compare vancomycin pharmacokinetic parameters in patients with and without neutropenia. METHODS Patients ≥18 years admitted on general wards were included. Routinely vancomycin trough and peak plasma concentrations were measured with a fluorescence polarization immunoassay. Pharmacokinetic parameters of individual patients were determined with maximum a posterior Bayesian estima...

متن کاملA Prospective Study to Assess Vancomycin Serum Concentrations in Pediatric Patients with Current Dosing Guidelines
Concerns about increasing bacterial resistance to vancomycin, have caused the adult treatment guidelines to recommend higher trough concentrations based on the type and location of infectious disease. Although these recommendations are not specific to children, the values can be extrapolated. This prospective study was designed to evaluate efficacy of current vancomycin dosing recommendations t...

متن کاملEmpiric Vancomycin Use in Febrile Neutropenic Oncology Patients
Vancomycin is commonly added as empiric therapy for febrile neutropenia. A retrospective chart review was conducted at a large community teaching institution to evaluate vancomycin use in oncology patients. The results revealed that a majority of empiric vancomycin therapy was inappropriate, raising concern for antibiotic resistance and prompting opportunities for improvement.
