Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between cystatin C level and the plasma trough concentration of teicoplanin, so as to provide a reference for the rational application of teicoplanin in clinical practice. Methods The clinical data of the patients receiving teicoplanin, who admitted to our hospital from October 2017 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The distribution of teicoplanin concentration, the difference of teicoplanin concentration under different cystatin C level, and influence factors for teicoplanin concentration (<15 µg/ml) were analyzed. Results A total of 98 patients including 65 males and 33 females, aged 19 to 94 (52.2±16.2) years old, with 141 trough concentrations were enrolled. The trough concentration of teicoplanin was 11.51 (8.35, 19.07) µg/ml, and the range was 3.57-41.93 µg/ml. 95 cases (67.38%) had teicoplanin concentration <15 µg/ml. When the concentration of cystatin C was >1.05 mg/L, the trough concentration of teicoplanin were 11.37 (8.96, 20.52) µg/ml, significantly higher than those when the concentration of cystatin C was in normal [8.68 (6.34, 11.79) µg/ml, Z=−2.636, P<0.05]. Logistic regression analysis showed that cystatin C level was the influencing factor for teicoplanin trough concentration does not meet the standard (OR=1.529, 95%CI=1.001-2.336, P<0.05). Conclusion The concentration of teicoplanin is significantly increased when the cystatin C level is higher than the normal. Cystatin C level is the influence factor for teicoplanin trough concentration not meeting the standard. The cystatin C level may be considered as a reference for teicoplanin dosage adjustment in clinical practice.
