Objectives
By the end of this session you should be able to:
1. Appreciate the importance of prescribing antibiotics in a timely
manner
2. Understand the right dosing for major classes of antibiotics
3. Select antibiotics according to the site of infection
4. Safely prescribe Gentamicin and Vancomycin,be able to
monitor levels logically and interpret them
5. Select safe antibiotics for use in renal and hepatic failure
6. Understand the consideration of antibiotic interactions with
other drugs
There are Three in this Relationship
Drug
Host
Infection
Host defence
Bacteria
Improving the probability of
positive outcomes
• Window of opportunity
– Early recognition and treatment of infection
– Selection of appropriate antibiotic
(e.g. through in vitro susceptibility determination)
– Optimization of DOSE using
Pharmacodynamic principles
– Use optimized dosing that would allow for the
minimization of selecting further resistance
Early recognition of infection
(Sepsis)
• Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS)
Systemic activation of the immune response
 2 of the following in response to an insult:
• T > 38 .C or < 36.C
• HR > 90 bpm
• RR > 20 bpm or PaCO2 < 32 mmHg
• WBC > 12 000 cells/mm3 , < 4 000 cells/mm3 or >10 % bands
• Sepsis
The systemic response to infection
SIRS + suspected or confirmed infection
(Bone et al Crit Care med 1989.;17 :389)
Sepsis
• Severe sepsis
– Sepsis + organ dysfunction, hypoperfusion or hypotension
• Septic shock
– Severe sepsis +
• unresponsive to fluid resuscitation
• need for vasopressor agents
• Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome
– Organ dysfunction
– Homeostasis cannot be maintained without intervention
Severe Sepsis Bundles
Sepsis Resuscitation Bundle
(To be completed as soon as possible and scored over first 6
hours)
1. Serum lactate measured
2. Blood culture obtained prior to antibiotic administration
3. From presentation, broad spectrum antibiotics administered
within 3 hours for ED admission and 1 hour for non-ED ICU
admission
4. In the event of hypotension and /or lactate >4mmol/l
(36mg/dl):
a.
b.
5.
Deliver an initial minimum of 20ml/Kg of crystalloid (or colloid
equivalent)
Apply vasopressors for hypotension not responding to initial fluid
resuscitation to maintain mean arterial pressure >65mmHg
In the event of persistent hypotension despite fluid
resuscitation (septic shock) and /or lactate >4mmmol/L
(36mg/dl):
a.
b.
Achieve central venous pressure (CVP) of >8mmHg
Achieve central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) of > 70%
Early treatment of infection
prospective observational study on 101 consecutive adult patients with
severe sepsis or septic shock
• The rate of compliance with the 6-hour sepsis bundle was 52%.
• non-compliant group had a more than twofold increase in hospital
mortality
– (49% versus 23%, RR 2.12 (95% CI 1.20 to 3.76), P = 0.01)
– similar age and severity of sepsis both groups
• Compliance with the 24-hour sepsis bundle in only 30% (21/69).
Hospital mortality was increased in the non-compliant group from
29% to 50%,
– 76% increase in risk for death(RR 1.76 (95% CI 0.84 to 3.64), P
= 0.16).
Role of Antibiotics (Kollef et al
Chest 1999;115:462-474)
•2,000 consecutive patients admitted to surgical or medical ITU
655 patients (33%) had either CA or HA infection
169 infected patients (25.8%) received inadequate antimicrobial treatment
•All Cause Hospital Mortality (RR 4.26, 95% CI 3.52-5.15, p < 0.001)
•Adequate antimicrobial treatment
•Mortality 12.2%
•Inadequate antimicrobial treatment
•Mortality 52.1%
•Infection Related Mortality (RR 2.37, 95% CI 1.83-3.08, p < 0.001)
•Adequate antimicrobial treatment
•Mortality 17.7%
•Inadequate antimicrobial treatment
•Mortality 42.0%
•Most important independent determinant of hospital mortality was inadequate
antibiotic treatment (OR 4.27, 95% CI 3.35-5.44, p < 0.001)
Timing of Antibiotics (Kumar A et al. Crit Care Med
2006;34:1589–1596)
•Retrospective, May 1999-June 2004, N=2731
•Outcome of antibiotic therapy after onset of recurrent or
persistent hypotension
•Overall mortality 56.2%
•Survival decreased by 7.6% for each hour of delay
•Applied to all subgroups of infections regardless of the
source of infection or causative pathogens
Key Message 1
• Diagnose sepsis early and give antibiotics
promptly to reduce mortality from sepsis
Pharmacodynamics
Drug Absorption Curve
MIC Calculation
MIC
Beta-Lactams
• The critical parameter is the time the
antibiotic concentration remains above the
MIC of the organism expressed as
– T > MIC
Beta-Lactams:
Optimising Exposure
• The optimum level of exposure varies for
different agents within the beta-lactam
class
• Required %T>MIC for efficacy:
– ~ 50%–70% for cephalosporins
– ~ 50% for penicillins
– ~ 40% for carbapenems

Key Message 2
• Beta lactams need frequent dosing for
successful therapeutic outcome
– Missing doses will lead to treatment failure
• Aminoglycosides should be given as a large
single dose (except in infective endocarditis) for
a successful therapeutic outcome
– Multiple small doses will lead to treatment failure
and likely to lead to renal toxicity

Key Message 3
• When selecting an antibiotic consider the
following;
– Where is the infection?
– Which antibiotics will reach the site of
infection
• Match the two and select your antibiotic

Hartford Nomogram
7 mg/Kg OD
•Precise Times of collection required
•Collection 6-12Hrs after dose
Gentamicin monitoring 2
• Gentamicin 5-7mg/Kg OD
– Collect around 24Hrs post dose
– Aiming for <1mg/l
• Checking if patient is clearing gentamicin
• High levels
• Blood collected too early
• Patient not clearing Gentamicin
• Blood collected from lumen used to infuse
Gentamicin earlier on
Gentamicin monitoring 2
• Corrective measures
– Re-check levels
– Stop, look for alternative antibiotic
– Omit dose and repeat levels after 12 Hrs
• Frequency
– 2-3x/week after steady state
• More frequently if renal function changing or
concurrent nephrotoxic drugs
Vancomycin Monitoring
Glycopeptide
•ONLY active against Gram-positive bacteria including MRSA
•IV only except for Clostridium Difficile associated diarrhoea
when oral route is used (NOT absorbed from GI and not
enough levels get into GI by IV route)
•1g BD IV standard dose
Vancomycin trough level
Collect serum specimen 30 minutes or less before next dose
• Frequency of collection:
•First level at steady state (3rd - 5th dose)
•Subsequent levels once or twice/week
•More frequently if renal function changing or concurrent
nephrotoxic drugs

Antibiotic Handling
Comments
Penicillins
Kidneys
Generally safe in liver failure,
check individual drug for possible
cholestatic jaundice
Tetracyclines
Concentrated in the
liver and excreted via
bile and reabsorbed in
the intestine.
Eliminated in urine
Avoid or use with caution
Aminoglycosides
Kidneys
Safe
Macrolides
Liver metabolism
May worsen liver dysfunction,
avoid
Chloramphenicol
85-95% conjugated in
the liver
Avoid, increased probability of
bone marrow toxicity
Glycopeptides
Kidneys
Safe
Co-trimoxazole
Significant metabolism
by liver
Avoid
Key Message 4&5
• Aminoglycosides are toxic drugs and require
monitoring
– Avoid use in renal failure but safe in liver failure
– Avoid concomitant use with other renal toxic drugs
– Check renal clearance, frequency according to renal function
• Vancomycin dosing should be BD dose and adjusted
according to levels at steady state
– Frequency of monitoring depends on renal function
• Beta lactams are the safest antibiotics in renal and
hepatic failure
– Adjustments to dose may still be required in severe failure
