Pharmacokinetics of piperacillin-tazobactam in anuric intensive care patients during continuous venovenous hemodialysis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The pharmacokinetics of piperacillin-tazobactam were investigated in eight anuric intensive care patients treated by continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD). The elimination half-life of piperacillin was 4.3 +/- 1.2 h, and that of tazobactam was 5.6 +/- 1.3 h. The contribution of CVVHD to the overall elimination was relevant (>25%) for both drugs.

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Extended Infusion Versus Short Infusion Piperacillin-Tazobactam in Critically Ill Patients Undergoing CRRT.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Infection is the most common cause of death in severe AKI, but many patients receiving continuous RRT do not reach target antibiotic concentrations in plasma. Extended infusion of β-lactams is associated with improved target attainment in critically ill patients; thus, we hypothesized that extended infusion piperacillin-tazobactam would improve piperacillin target atta...

BACKGROUND Tazobactam/piperacillin (TAZ/PIPC), which is often combined with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), induces renal excretion and is thought to have a high component removal rate for blood purification. CRRT procedures vary depending on the country, region, and institution. It is not clear whether the dose of TAZ/PIPC for use in Japan can be determined based on studies conduc...

OBJECTIVE Moxifloxacin is an 8-methoxy quinolone with a broad range of activity against clinically important pathogens. Therefore it is frequently administered in severe respiratory tract infections. Continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) is an important extracorporeal renal replacement therapy for intensive care patients suffering from sepsis and multiple organ failure. The aim of t...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Current recommendations for piperacillin-tazobactam dosing in patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy originate from studies with relatively few patients and lower continuous renal replacement therapy doses than commonly used today. This study measured the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of piperacillin-tazobactam in patients treated...
