Area under the curve (AUC)-based vancomycin dosing reduces nephrotoxicity but is burdensome. Reviewing 115 adults receiving ≥2 weeks of outpatient vancomycin, we found AUC-based and trough-based dose adjustments discordant only for troughs <12 or >16 mg/L. Selective versus universal outpatient AUC calculation would likely offer similar benefit with reduced workload.
基于曲线下面积(AUC)的万古霉素给药方案可降低肾毒性,但操作繁琐。在对115名接受≥2周门诊万古霉素治疗的成年人进行回顾时,我们发现,仅当谷浓度<12或>16mg/L时,基于AUC和基于谷浓度的剂量调整才不一致。选择性而非普遍性的门诊AUC计算可能在减轻工作量的同时带来相似的益处。
