Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy · 10.1128/AAC.01377-21

Structure

A two-compartment model, driven by weight and creatinine clearance.

Study population

Critically ill and ECMO patients — International. Fitted to 22 patients and 205 concentration observations.

Covariate As reported
Age 41 (IQR 36–53) yr
Weight 76 (IQR 70–90) kg
BMI 26 (IQR 23–29) kg/m²
CrCl 75 (IQR 60–82) mL/min

Reported as the source publication gives them — mean ± SD, or median with range or interquartile range.

CL = 3.20 \cdot \frac{CrCl}{77}
V_1 = 29.73 \cdot \left(\frac{Weight}{80}\right)^{0.75}
V_2 = V_1 \cdot \frac{0.94}{2.11}
Q = V_1 \cdot 0.94

Implementation notes

ECMO model. RRT covariate on clearance excluded.
