Impaired clearance of ceftizoxime and cefotaxime after orthotopic liver transplantation.

چکیده
The pharmacokinetics of ceftizoxime (CZX) and of cefotaxime (CTX) were studied in five children and five adults after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Delayed clearance of CZX (clearance of 0.21 to 1.26 ml/min per kg [body weight]) and CTX (clearance of 0.40 to 1.49 ml/min per kg) occurred in 7 of the 10 OLT patients. We conclude that abnormal CZX and CTX clearance is common after OLT and may be associated with minimal change in serum creatinine.

Severe Acute Hyperkalemia during Pre-Anhepatic Stage in Cadaveric Orthotopic Liver Transplantation
A serious hazard to patients during orthotopic liver transplantation is hyperkalemia. Although the most frequent and hazardous hyperkalemia occurs immediately after reperfusion of the newly transplanted liver, morbid hyperkalemia could happen in the other phases during orthotopic liver transplantation. However, pre-anhepatic hyperkalemia during orthotopic liver transplantation is rare. This rep...
متن کاملOrthotopic Liver Transplantation for Etanercept-Induced Acute Hepatic Failure; a case report
The occurrence of hepatotoxicity following etanercept (tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonist) prescription, has been studied well. However, an acute hepatic failure leading to liver transplant as an adverse effect of this drug has not been reported in the literature. In this article, we are going to present a case of acute liver failure followed by liver transplantation, in a 32 years old man ...

Objective(s): The goal of this research was to develop a mouse orthotopic liver transplantation (LTx) model from donor-after-cardiac-death (DCD) grafts. Materials and Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the experimental group or the sham group. The mice in the experimental group were divided into three groups according to the warm ischemia time (WIT) of liver graft: normal LTx, WIT 30 minut...
متن کاملRole of serum protein binding and multiple antibiotic doses in the extravascular distribution of ceftizoxime and cefotaxime.
The extravascular penetration of ceftizoxime and cefotaxime was studied in a rabbit subcutaneous Visking chamber model. Four rabbits, implanted with four chambers each, received each drug intramuscularly at a dose of 50 mg/kg every 3 hours for eight doses. Serum drug concentrations were measured after the eighth dose, and extravascular (chamber) concentrations were measured after the first and ...
متن کاملPerioperative pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime in serum and bile during continuous and intermittent infusion in liver transplant patients.
BACKGROUND Drug pharmacokinetics may be altered during liver transplantation. Cefotaxime (CTX), used as perioperative prophylaxis, demonstrates time-dependent killing and therefore continuous infusion might have pharmacodynamic advantages. OBJECTIVES To determine the pharmacokinetics of CTX and desacetylcefotaxime (DCTX) in serum, bile and urine during continuous and intermittent infusion whe...
