Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Serum teicoplanin trough concentrations
Teicoplanin trough samples were taken immediately 30 minutes before teicoplanin administration on the fourth day. Blood samples for 2-3 mL were collected in blood-collection tubes without any additives and centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10min. Serum teicoplanin trough concentrations (Cmin) were determined by a high-performance liquid chromatography method as previously described. The detections were completed in Translational Medicine Center of Zhengzhou Central Hospital affiliated to Zhengzhou University.

Study Arms (4)
Group A
Group A (CLcr≥60mL/min) : Teicoplanin was intravenously administered 3 times for moderate infections (skin, soft tissue and respiratory infections) or 6 times for severe infections(endocarditis caused by MRSA or severe pneumonia) at the loading dose of 400 mg at 12h intervals, followed by maintenance dosing 400 mg/d.
Group B
Group B (40 mL/min≤CLcr\<60mL/min) : Teicoplanin was intravenously administered 3 times at the loading dose of 400 mg at 12h intervals, followed by maintenance dosing 400 mg/d.
Group C
Group C (CLcr\<40mL/min) : Teicoplanin was intravenously administered 2 times at the loading dose of 400 mg at 12h intervals, followed by maintenance dosing 200 mg/d.
Group D
Group D (standard regimen) : Teicoplanin was intravenously administered 1-3 times at the loading dose of 400 mg at 12h intervals, followed by maintenance dosing 200 mg/d.
Interventions
If treatment failure for patients in group A,group B,group C and group D,change dose of teicoplanin or other antibacterial agents. Mechanical ventilation was adopte.Treatment failure was defined as no improvement or worse of clinical symptoms, laboratory data, requiring change of teicoplanin therapy.
Eligibility Criteria
The clinical data of 113 patients who were suffered with severe Gram-positive infection and treated with teicoplanin from February 2015 to August 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.
You may qualify if:
- age≥18 years
- duration of teicoplanin therapy≥5 days
- written informed consent was obtained from each patients
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who were allergy to teicoplanin
- pregnant women
- patients with hematopoietic function
- patients unable to evaluate efficacy and safety
