Brief Summary

Aminoglycosides are widely used for the treatment of Gram-negative bacilli and Staphylococcus aureus infections because of their effectiveness and low cost. Nevertheless, many aspects of their optimal use in hemodialysis patients remain unsolved and little is known about their pharmacokinetics in this context. The current practice for prescribing aminoglycosides to these particular patients consists in giving after each hemodialysis session about half the dose usually given to patients with normal renal function. However, theoretical considerations and emerging clinical data suggest that this may not be the most beneficial dosing regimen as efficient peak concentrations are often not attained and the occurrence of ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity is still frequent.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Concentration curves of gentamicin

    The research aims at performing a population pharmacokinetic (POPPK) study of gentamicin when given to hemodialysis patients. The ability to describe the concentration curves versus time (Biais (%) between the observed concentrations and the concentrations predicted by the model).

Study Arms (1)

hemodialysis patients

EXPERIMENTAL

The administration of gentamicin at the beginning of the hemodialysis.

Drug: Gentamicin

Interventions

The decision to introduce the antibiotic is made during a session or between two sessions according to both the clinicians usual procedure. Depending on the number of injections, 8 to 10 blood samples will be drawn per patient. Clinical and biological data will be concomitantly collected (e.g., hemodialysis session duration, creatinine clearance…). The number of blood sampling and the time schedule will be adapted to the prescription and the possible follow-up of the treatment after the first injection. Whatever the time is between the first injection and the following dialysis session, a sampling will be performed 30 minutes after the end of the injection (T1), 8h after the end of the injection (T2), juste before (TAD), in the middle (TMD) and at the end of the dialysis (TFD).
