Evaluation of Bayesian predictability of vancomycin concentration in patients with various degrees of renal function.

چکیده
To assess the usefulness of the population pharmacokinetic parameters of vancomycin (VCM) based on a two-compartment model in Japanese adult patients, predictability by a Bayesian method was evaluated using a concentration time course after single dosing to 22 patients with various degrees of renal function. Using one or two points from the observed data for each patient, the concentrations predicted by a Bayesian method were compared with the observed data for each sampling time. The patients were separated into five groups based on their renal functions indicated by creatinine clearance, and the mean prediction error (MPE) and root mean squared error (RMSE) were calculated for each group as measures of accuracy and precision, respectively. In both one- and two-point methods, the absolute MPE values at each sampling time in the elimination phase were less than 2.5 microg/ml, and the RMSE values were also small. No clear differences were found in MPE and RMSE among the groups. In the distribution phase, the MPE and RMSE were somewhat greater, and RMSE in some groups was around 15 microg/ml when trough data was used to predict the peak concentration. Also, the theoretical RMSE using this population parameter setting could well explain the observed RMSE. These results confirmed this population parameter setting is useful for at least predicting concentration in the elimination phase after single dosing, and the predictability was independent of renal function.
