We report a case of cefepime neurotoxicity characterised by myoclonic status epilepticus with coma, in a context of acute renal failure and requiring one discontinuous conventional haemodialysis. Cefepime is a fourth-generation broad-spectrum cephalosporin mainly used to treat hospital-acquired Gram-negative infections. Acute neurotoxicity is an increasingly reported adverse effect which occurs predominantly in patients with renal impairment. Renal replacement therapy has been proposed to treat this condition.
我们报告了一例头孢吡肟神经毒性病例,其特征为伴有昏迷的肌阵挛性癫痫持续状态,发生在急性肾衰竭的背景下,且需要进行一次非连续性常规血液透析。头孢吡肟是一种第四代广谱头孢菌素,主要用于治疗医院获得性革兰氏阴性菌感染。急性神经毒性是一种报告日益增多的不良反应,主要发生在肾功能损害患者中。已提出采用肾脏替代疗法来治疗这种情况。
