Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate clinical utilization and blood concentration monitoring of vancomycin in our hospital. METHODS: By retrospective survey method, the clinical information (primary diseases, bacteriological culture, blood concentration of vancomycin, clinical efficacy, renal function) of 41 inpatients who had been treated with vancomycin and their blood concentrations from Nov. 2005 to Dec. 2008 were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: The total response rate of vancomycin was 65.0%. The peak concentration of 62.7% cases were below 25 mg?L-1 while the valley value of 55.2% cases were below 5 mg?L-1. The incidence of renal dysfunction after treatment was 12.2%. CONCLUSION: The consumption and blood concentrations of vancomycin are close to low level in our hospital. It should be paid attention to the blood concentration monitoring of vancomycin to achieve an ideal individual administration according to clinical practice.
