Abstract

Objective: A survey of colistin use in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) at 108 Military Central Hospital. Subject and method: We implemented a descriptive, retrospective study in 45 medical records with simultaneous use of colistin and CRRT at 108 Military Central Hospital from January 2018 to May 2020. Result and conclusion: 66.7% of patients were 60 years of age or older. The patients mainly received treatment in ICU (84.4%). There were 57 CRRT sessions on 45 patients. The reason for appointing CRRT was mainly septic shock (86.0%). The most common infectious agent was A. baumannii (46.7%). Some strains of E. coli, A. baumannii and K. pneumoniae had MIC ≥ 4mg/L. The most common bacterial infection was pneumonia (97.8%). 39/45 patients received colistin loading dose. The average colistin loading dose was 6.5 ± 1.9MIU. On days of CRRT, the most common maintenance dose regimen was 2MIU every 8 hours. More than half of maintenance doses in the days outside the CRRT sessions were lower than recommended. The proportion of patients with complete response/partial response, clinical failure to colistin regimens was 35.6% and 64.4%, respectively. It is necessary to develop a protocol to completely document patient characteristics as well as CRRT parameters, at the same time, optimize the dose of colistin according to the individual patient and according to CRRT sessions.
