NCT03438214

Brief Summary

This is a randomized, controlled multicenter clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to compare the continuous infusion of vancomycin with intermittent infusion regarding the effectiveness to reach the target serum level and the relationship between infusion type and nephrotoxicity in critically ill patients.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Continuous infusion of vancomycin

Drug: Vancomycin Continuous infusion

Vancomycin intermittent infusion

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Intermittent infusion of vancomycin

Drug: Vancomycin Intermittent infusion

Interventions

Will be administered a loading dose of 25mg/kg followed of 2g infused in 24h. Serum levels will be measured after the end of the loading dose (peak) and after 24 hours (steady state). The doses will be adjusted according to serum levels (between 15 and 20 mg / L) and area under curve (AUC) /MIC≥400mg.h/L

Also known as: Continuous infusion
Vancomycin continuous infusion

Will be administered a loading dose of 25mg/kg followed of 1g every 12h. Serum levels will be measured after the end of the loading dose (peak) and one hour before the next dose (trough). The doses will be adjusted according to serum levels (between 15 and 20 mg / L) and AUC/MIC≥400mg.h/L.

Also known as: Intermittent infusion
Vancomycin intermittent infusion
