A Study the Population Pharmacokinetics of Children Receiving the Anti-infective Drugs for Treatment of Infectious Disease in Central Nervous System

The investigators aim to study the population pharmacokinetics of children receiving the anti-infective drugs for treatment of infectious disease in central nervous system.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The investigators aim to study the population pharmacokinetics of children receiving the anti-infective drugs for treatment of infectious disease in central nervous system.In this study, the investigators will detect drug concentration in plasma by using residual blood samples of blood gas analysis and other clinical tests and employ computers for constructing population pharmacokinetic models.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Children (29 days-18 years old) with anti-infective therapy against infectious disease in central nervous system.
  • Clinical symptoms: acute onset, fever (axillary temperature 38 ℃ or higher), headache, altered level of consciousness, vomiting, irritability, sleepiness, low muscle tone, seizures, before the fontanelle full or uplift, positive meningeal stimulation;
  • Aboratory examination: CSF appearance change, CSF routine WBC >100 per ml, CSF routine WBC 10-100 per ml, glucose <40mg/dl, protein >100mg/dl), positive detection of etiology (bacterial culture, antigen detection, gram staining).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • autoimmune encephalitis;
  • central nervous system infection complicated with tumor;
  • allergic to carbapenems or glycopeptide antibiotics;
  • other cases not suitable for enrollment (small sample size, incomplete clinical data, etc.).

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Observational Models: Cohort
  • Time Perspectives: Retrospective

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Children with the usage of anti-infective drugs
in conformity with the clinical practice
According to the models of population pharmacokinetics,the investigators and want to correlate use of antibiotics with treatment effectiveness and safety in children.
Other Names:
  • Cefepime (Maxipime®)
  • ceftazidime
  • meropenem (Mepem®)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
maximum concentration (Cmax)
Time Frame: up to 4 weeks
Cmax is a term used in pharmacokinetics refers to the maximum (or peak) serum concentration that a drug achieves in a specified compartment or test area of the body after the drug has been administrated and before the administration of a second dose.
up to 4 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
time to achieve maximum concentration (Tmax)
Time Frame: up to 4 weeks
Tmax is the term used in pharmacokinetics to describe the time at which the Cmax is observed.
up to 4 weeks
