| Core Tip |
The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and risk factors for vancomycin concentrations less than 10 mg/L during cardiac surgery. Over a 1-year period, 236 patients were enrolled, and a total of 1682 serum vancomycin concentrations were measured. A total of 48% of patients were found to have ≥ 1 sample with a vancomycin level < 10 mg/L. The maximum concentration and area under the concentration-time curve were significantly higher in patients with no vancomycin levels less than 10 mg/L (P < 0.001). The multivariate analysis identified female gender, body mass index > 25 kg/m2, and creatinine clearance above 70 mL/min as risk factors for vancomycin levels less than 10 mg/L. |
