Patients in intensive care units (ICUs) are at high risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) due to polypharmacy. Little is known about type and frequency of DDIs within German ICUs. Clinical pharmacists' interventions (PI) recorded in a national database (ADKA-DokuPIK) were filtered for ICU patients. Binary DDIs involving ≥1 anti-infective agent with >1 database entry were selected. A modified two-step Delphi process with a group of senior hospital pharmacists was employed to evaluate selected DDIs for clinical relevance by using a five-point scale and to develop guidance for clinical practice. In total, 16,173 PI were recorded, including 1836 (11%) DDIs in the ICU setting. Of the latter, 41% (756/1836) included ≥1 anti-infective agent, 32% (590/1836) were binary DDIs, and 25% (455/1836) were listed at least twice. This translates into 88 different DDIs, 74% (65/88) of which were rated as being clinically relevant by our expert panel. The majority of DDIs (76% [67/88]) included macrolides, antifungals, or fluoroquinolones. This percentage was even higher in DDIs being rated as clinically relevant by the experts (85% [55/65]). It is noted that an inter-professional discussion and approach is needed in the individual patient management of DDIs. The guidance developed might be a tool for decision support.
由于用药种类繁多,重症监护病房(ICU)的患者发生药物相互作用(DDI)的风险很高。对于德国ICU内DDI的类型和频率,人们了解甚少。在一个国家数据库(ADKA-DokuPIK)中记录的临床药师干预措施(PI)被筛选出用于ICU患者。选择了涉及≥1种抗感染药物且有>1条数据库记录的二元DDI。采用了一种经过改进的两步德尔菲法,与一组资深医院药师一起,使用五点量表评估所选DDI的临床相关性,并制定临床实践指南。总共记录了16173次PI,其中包括ICU环境中的1836次(11%)DDI。在后者中,41%(756/1836)包括≥1种抗感染药物,32%(590/1836)为二元DDI,25%(455/1836)至少被列出两次。这相当于88种不同的DDI,其中74%(65/88)被我们的专家小组评为具有临床相关性。大多数DDI(76%[67/88])包括大环内酯类、抗真菌药或氟喹诺酮类。在被专家评为具有临床相关性的DDI中,这一比例甚至更高(85%[55/65])。需要注意的是,在DDI的个体患者管理中需要跨专业的讨论和方法。制定的指南可能是一种决策支持工具。
