Abstract
Objective: To survey the practical use of colistin at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), 175 Military Hospital and its unwanted effects on kidneys. Subject and method: A retrospective descriptive study based on information collected from case records of 124 patients with colistin use at the ICU, 175 Military Hospital from January 1st, 2022 to December 31st, 2022. Result: Median age was 63.5 years (49-72). 92.7% of patients infected with multiple drug resistant (MDR) bacteria. Median dose of colistin was 8 (8-10) MIU/day, median duration of treatment was 9.5 (6-12) days. The most common antibiotics used in combination with colistin were carbapenem, tetracycline and aminoglycoside. 42.7% of patients had nephrotoxicity. Factors associated with colistin-related nephrotoxicity included: Chronic kidney disease, ≥ 2 MDR bacteria, infection with K. pneumoniae or P. aeruginosa, duration of hospital stay, concomitant use of furosemide or amikacin, basal SCr and duration of colistin use. Conclusion: The high incidence of acute kidney impairment suggested the nescessity of close monitoring the use of colistin in clinical practice.
