Drug dosing in continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT):general rules
Introduction • Acute kidney injury, AKI + RRT 5% of ICU patients. • unstable hemodynamic • multiple organ dysfunction • multiple drugs • Adequate dosing • increase the efficacy • minimize toxicity General Principles
In the critically ill-Pharmacokinetics • increased Vd of water-soluble drugs • altered protein binding • decreased clearance • hyperdynamic circulation in early sepsis (may result in supranormal renal clearances)
In the critically ill-Pharmacodynamics • pattern of bactericidal activity • postantibiotic effect(PAE)
Extracorporeal removal • only the drug in the central compartment(plasma)is available for extracorporeal removal • drugs with a large Vd have less access to the hemofilter or dialyzer • Extracorporeal treatmentdeeper compartments • the rate of extracorporeal removal • the rate of transfer between the peripheral and central compartment. • Ex: Intermittent vs Contineous
Factors determining extracorporeal drug removal • Drug–membrane interactions(minor) • Drug’s charge • Gibbs-Donan effect • Membrane adsorption • Diffusion or Convection(major)
Diffusion or Convection(major) • Convective (hemofiltration, HF) • Diffusive (hemodialysis, HD) • Diffusion +Convection (hemodiafiltration, HDF)
Convective transport • S=Cf / Cp(definition) =1-PB(practical purposes) • sieving coefficient (S) • drug concentration in the ultrafiltrate (Cf) • drug concentration in the plasma(Cp) Swith wide variation, no matter in health and critical ill patient
Convective transport • Post-dilution hemofiltration • ClHFpost=S × Qf • filtration rate (Qf) • Pre-dilution hemofiltration • ClHFpre=S × Qf × Qb /(Qb+Qspre) • blood flow (Qb) • predilution substitution rate (Qspre)
Diffusive transmembrane transport • Sd=Cd/Cp(definition) =1-PB (continuous dialysis, small solutes) • sieving coefficient in dialysis (Sd) • drug concentration in the dialysate outflow (Cd) • drug concentration in the plasma(Cp)
Diffusive transmembrane transport • continuous dialysis • ClHD=Sd × Qd • dialysate flow rate (Qd) • ClHD=Sd × Qd × Kdrel • dialysate flow rate (Qd) • Kdrel=Kd / Kdcreat=(MWdrug/113)-0.42
Convection +Diffusion • in HDF • further complicates • 1+1>2
Extracorporeal Drug Clearance • filtrate flow rate(Qf) /dialysate flow rate(Qd) • protein binding extracorporeal drug clearance • normal protein binding • no membrane interactions • Not for diffusive transport (MW, membrane properties)
Fractional extracorporeal clearance FrEC=ClEC/(ClEC+ClNR+ClR) Extracorporeal drug clearance Notbe clinically relevant for drugs with: • low ClEC(high protein binding or low Qf or Qd) • high ClNR(predominant hepatic/enzymatic clearance) • high ClR(if used in nonrenal indications)
Micafungin: protein binding of 99.8%、 extensively metabolized in the liver • Amphotericin B lipid complexes: insoluble in water、 highly protein binding
Practical approach: steps • loading dose:target plasma level and Vd ( no adaptation for extracorporeal removal ) • maintenance dose (before RRT): for reduced renal function • maintenance dose (after RRT): for clinically important extracorporeal elimination (FrEC>0.25).
Approaches to drug dosing (1) • Consult the available literature • Antibiotic Dosing in Critically Ill Adult Patients Receiving CRRT Clinical Infectious Diseases 2005; 41:1159–66 • Based on total creatinine clearance • Extracorporeal Ccr+ endogenous Ccr • Extracorporeal Ccr (low-volume CRRT:10-25ml/min) (high-volume CRRT:25-50ml/min) • Endogenous Ccr (estimated / calculated)
Approaches to drug dosing (2) • DoseCVVH=Dn × [ClNR+(Qf × S) /Cln] • normal dose (Dn) • normal total clearance (Cln) • nonrenal clearance (ClNR) • Extracorporeal clearance (Qf × S) • Based on the FrEC • Maintenance dose =anuric dose / (1-FrEC) • Dosing interval =anuric dosing interval / (1-FrEC)
Approaches to drug dosing (3) • Monitoring of drug levels • Dose=target Cp × Cl × timing • Dose=(target-actual Cp) × Cl × timing • Based on clinical effect
Special considerations ‘semi-continuous’ high efficiency treatments (Ex: SLED) • Drug dosing • beta-lactam • aminoglycosides • Phenomenon of rebound after treatment interruption
Conclusion • Clearance accuracy: convective transport>diffusive transport • The simplest method of Drug dosing during CRRT based on total creatinine clearance. • volume of distribution • protein binding • nonrenal clearance rely more on drug monitoring
Conclusion • For antibiotics with low toxicity • In the absence of drug monitoring • the consequences of underdosing are much more dangerous than the adverse effects of overdosing clinicians should prefer overdose
