Vancomycin Dosing and Therapeutic Drug Monitoring

Vancomycin was given as a 60 min infusion at the dose recommended in Neofax (Table 1) [19 ]. Individual dose adjustments based on the TDM results were performed at the discretion of the treating physician. Start and termination of vancomycin therapy, dosing regimen and infusion time prior to TDM sample and TDM sampling time were collected.

Vancomycin dosing regimen as recommended by Neofax 2010 and used in this study

PMA (week)PNA (day)Interval (hour)Daily dose (mg/kg/24 h)
≤290–141813
>141220
30–360–141220
>14830
37–440–71220
>7830
≥45all640
In our hospital vancomycin TDM samples are routinely taken an hour before the 3rd or 4th dose and thereafter at the discretion of the treating physician. Vancomycin concentrations were measured by commercial fluorescence polarization immunoassay according to manufacturers’ instructions (Cobas Integra 400/800 Analyzer, Roche, Mannheim, Germany). TDM samples taken up to 2 h before the next dose were designated Ctroughs.

Histological and Biochemical Analysis of Muscle Fiber

Serial sections of 12 μm thickness were cut from the mid-belly region of diaphragm and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles on a refrigerated cryostat (Shandon Cryotome E, Thermo) at −20°C. Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson’sTrichrome. Digitized images (8 bit) of muscle sections were acquired with a CCD camera (Digital Sight DSFi1, Nikon) attached to an upright microscope (Nikon Eclipse 80i). Images were analyzed with NIS Elements Br software (Nikon) where the mean cross sectional area (CSA) of muscle fibers was calculated by interactive determination of the circumference of at least 200 adjacent cells from the center of every muscle section examined. Percentage of central nuclei was determined from at least 200 fibers from at least 3 mice of each genotype. For serum creatine kinase (CK) activity blood was drawn from the saphenous vein, serum separated and CK activity measured on a Cobas Integra 400/800 analyzer (Roche).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
