Abstract
We aimed to develop a piperacillin population pharmacokinetic (PK) model in critically ill children receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and to optimize dosing regimens. The piperacillin plasma concentration was quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography. Piperacillin PK was investigated using a nonlinear mixed-effect modeling approach. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to compute the optimal scheme of administration according to the target of 100% interdose interval time in which concentration is one to four times above the MIC (100% fT > 1 to 4× MIC). A total of 32 children with a median (interquartile range [IQR]) postnatal age of 2 years (0 to 11), body weight (BW) of 15 kg (6 to 38), and receiving CRRT were included. Concentration-time courses were best described by a one-compartment model with first-order elimination. BW and residual diuresis (Qu) explained some between-subject variabilities on volume of distribution (V), where [Formula: see text], and clearance (CL), where [Formula: see text], where CLpop and Vpop are 6.78 L/h and 55.0 L, respectively, normalized to a 70-kg subject and median residual diuresis of 0.06 mL/kg/h. Simulations with intermittent and continuous administrations for 4 typical patients with different rates of residual diuresis (0, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.5 mL/kg/h) showed that continuous infusions were appropriate to attain the PK target for patients with residual diuresis higher than 0.1 mL/kg/h according to BW and MIC, while for anuric patients, less frequent intermittent doses were mandatory to avoid accumulation. Optimal exposure to piperacillin in critically ill children on CRRT should be achieved by using continuous infusions with escalating doses for high-MIC bacteria, except for anuric patients who require less frequent intermittent doses.

Pharmacokinetics of piperacillin and tazobactam in critically Ill patients treated with continuous kidney replacement therapy: A mini-review and population pharmacokinetic analysis. J Clin Pharm Ther 2022; 47:1091-1102. [PMID: 35352374 PMCID: PMC9544041 DOI: 10.1111/jcpt.13657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Timely and appropriate dosing of antibiotics is essential for the treatment of bacterial sepsis. Critically ill patients treated with continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) often have physiologic derangements that affect pharmacokinetics (PK) of antibiotics and dosing may be challenging. We sought to aggregate previously published piperacillin and tazobactam (pip-tazo) pharmacokinetic data in critically ill patients undergoing CKRT to better understand pharmacokinetics of pip-tazo in this population and better inform dosing. METHODS The National Library of Medicine Database was searched for original research containing piperacillin or tazobactam clearance (CL) or volume of distribution (V) estimates in patients treated with CKRT. The search yielded 77 articles, of which 26 reported suitable estimates of CL or V. Of the 26 articles, 10 for piperacillin and 8 for tazobactam had complete information suitable for population pharmacokinetic modelling. Also included in the analysis was piperacillin and tazobactam PK data from 4 critically ill patients treated with CKRT in the Military Health System, 2 with burn and 2 without burn. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Median and range of literature reported PK parameters for piperacillin (CL 2.76 L/hr, 1.4-7.92 L/hr, V 31.2 L, 16.77-42.27 L) and tazobactam (CL 2.34 L/hr, 0.72-5.2 L/hr, V 36.6 L, 26.2-58.87 L) were highly consistent with population estimates (piperacillin CL 2.7 L/hr, 95%CI 1.99-3.41 L/hr, V 25.83 22.07-29.59 L, tazobactam CL 2.49 L/hr, 95%CI 1.55-3.44, V 30.62 95%CI 23.7-37.54). The proportion of patients meeting pre-defined pharmacodynamic (PD) targets (median 88.7, range 71%-100%) was high despite significant mortality (median 44%, range 35%-60%). High mortality was predicted by baseline severity of illness (median APACHE II score 23, range 21-33.25). Choice of lenient or strict PD targets (ie 100%fT >MIC or 100%fT >4XMIC) had the largest impact on probability of target attainment (PTA), whereas presence or intensity of CKRT had minimal impact on PTA. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Pip-tazo overexposure may be associated with increased mortality, although this is confounded by baseline severity of illness. Achieving adequate pip-tazo exposure is essential; however, risk of harm from overexposure should be considered when choosing a PD target and dose. If lenient PD targets are desired, doses of 2250-3375 mg every 6 h are reasonable for most patients receiving CKRT. However, if a strict PD target is desired, continuous infusion (at least 9000-13500 mg per day) may be required. However, some critically ill CKRT populations may need higher or lower doses and dosing strategies should be tailored to individuals based on all available clinical data including the specific critical care setting.

Abstract
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is more and more widely used in patients for various indications recent years. It is still intricate for clinicians to decide a suitable empiric antimicrobial dosing for patients receiving CRRT. Inappropriate doses of antimicrobial agents may lead to treatment failure or drug resistance of pathogens. CRRT factors, patient individual conditions and drug pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics are the main elements effecting the antimicrobial dosing adjustment. With the development of CRRT techniques, some antimicrobial dosing recommendations in earlier studies were no longer appropriate for clinical use now. Here, we reviewed the literatures involving in new progresses of antimicrobial dosages, and complied the updated empirical dosing strategies based on CRRT modalities and effluent flow rates. The following antimicrobial agents were included for review: flucloxacillin, piperacillin/tazobactam, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime/avibactam, cefepime, ceftolozane/tazobactam, sulbactam, meropenem, imipenem, panipenem, biapenem, ertapenem, doripenem, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, clindamycin, azithromycin, tigecycline, polymyxin B, colistin, vancomycin, teicoplanin, linezolid, daptomycin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, fluconazole, voriconazole, posaconzole, caspofungin, micafungin, amphotericin B, acyclovir, ganciclovir, oseltamivir, and peramivir.
