Elimination of Antibiotics During Renal Replacement Therapy and Cytosorb Adsorptive Therapy

May 6, 2020 updated by: Klinik für Anästhesiologie, Heinrich-Heine University, Duesseldorf

Elimination of Antibiotics During Combined Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and Cytosorb Adsorptive Therapy in Patients With Sepsis and Acute Kidney Injury

Cytokine adsorption using the cytosorb adsorber is currently investigated to reduce the levels of proinflammatory cytokines in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. The adsorber is frequently used in series with continuous renal replacement therapy. Up to date, no data on the removal of antibiotic drugs during combined renal replacement therapy and cytokine adsorptive therapy is available. Therefore, we want to investigate

- whether and to what extent antibiotic drugs (piperacillin/tazobactam and imipenem/cilastatin) are removed during combined continuous renal replacement therapy and cytosorb adsorption in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients in this trial are undergoing renal replacement therapy as part of their routine care. Thus, this is an observational trial.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Piperacillin/Tazobactam
Critically ill patients teated with piperacillin/tazobactam undergoing renal replacement therapy and cytosorb absorption during sepsis
No study specific intervention will be performed
Imipenem/Cilastatin
Critically ill patients teated with imipenem/cilastatin undergoing renal replacement therapy and cytosorb absorption during sepsis
No study specific intervention will be performed

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Removal of antibiotic drugs during the first 8 hours of combined continuous renal replacement therapy and cytosorb adsorption
Time Frame: 8 hours
Removal of antibiotic drugs during combined CRRT and adsorption will be evaluated by calculating total filter clearance using the drug concentration pre- and postfilter as well as the dialysate concentration. The adsorptive clearance will be evaluated using the pre- and postadsorber concentration. The outcome measure will be removal of antibiotic drug [mg/8 h dosing interval].
