Zusammenfassung:The Tablo Hemodialysis System is a new innovative kidney replacement therapy (KRT) providing a range of options for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. The use of various effluent rate and treatment durations/frequencies may clear antibiotics differently than traditional KRT. This Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) study was to develop antibiotic doses likely to attain therapeutic targets for various KRT combinations. Published body weights and pharmacokinetic parameter estimates were used to predict drug exposure for cefepime, ceftazidime, imipenem, meropenem and piperacillin/tazobactam in virtual critically ill patients receiving five KRT regimens. Standard free β-lactam plasma concentration time above minimum inhibitory concentration targets (40-60%fT and 40-60%fT ) were used as efficacy targets. MCS assessed the probability of target attainment (PTA) and likelihood of toxicity for various antibiotic dosing strategies. The smallest doses attaining PTA ≥ 90% during 1-week of therapy were considered optimal. MCS determined β-lactam doses achieving ∼90% PTA in all KRT options. KRT characteristics influenced antibiotic dosing. Cefepime and piperacillin/tazobactam regimens designed for rigorous efficacy targets were likely to exceed toxicity thresholds. The flexibility offered by new KRT systems can influence β-lactam antibiotic dosing, but doses can be devised to meet therapeutic targets. Further clinical validations are warranted.
