to reach this target drug concentration. It makes monitoring serum levels faster and easier since dose adjustments can be made instantly by changing the rate of infusion. Simply multiply the steady-state concentration by 24 to determine the AUC24 (Area under the concentration curve over 24 hours...
Since 1980, the success rate of surgical treatment-pars plana vitrectomy (PPV)–defined as final vision of 20/400 or better–has increasingly improved, ranging from 42 to 73 %. Therefore, complete PPV is now considered the "gold standard" in the treatment of endophthalmitis [2]. Vancomycin ...
These are especially prevalent with higher doses and a rapid infusion rate. A rapid infusion rate has been shown to cause anaphylactoid reactions, including hypotension, wheezing, dyspnea, urticaria, and pruritus. A significant drug rash (the so-called red man syndrome) also can occur. These ...
(with a constant infusion rate over 24 hours) of vancomycin has been reported in the neonatal population.66–69Continuous infusion may have better bactericidal efficacy because vancomycin’s bactericidal properties are time dependent.70Kim et al71found that continuous vancomycin was as successful as ...

Administer by IV infusion over ≥1 hour.Rapid IV administration (e.g., over several minutes) may cause hypotension, including shock and rarely cardiac arrest, and should be avoided.Adverse effects may be minimized if infusion rate is ≤10 mg/minute, but consider that adverse effects ...
Gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) procedures: 1 g intravenously by slow infusion over 1 hour, beginning 1-2 hours before procedure (with or without gentamicin 1.5 mg/kg; not to exceed 120 mg intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) within 30 minutes before procedure) ...
As the mortality rate for MRSA bacteremia remains high 23.4%, no study has looked at continuous infusion vancomycin (CIV) since the IDSA guidelines in 2009 changing therapeutic level interpretation. We conducted a retrospective review at our academic center to review steady state levels, ...
The genetic mechanisms that underlie these alterations include loss of agr functions (the agr locus contains the hld gene encoding the δ-haemolysin) and alterations in atl, lytM and sceD, among others. Phenotypic changes include a high rate of cell wall turnover (enhanced expression of sceD) ...
