Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Plasma concentrations of paracetamol and its metabolites: glucuronide, sulfoconjugate, cysteine- and mercapturate-conjugates after a single intravenous perfusion of paracetamol
The overall concentrations (parent drug and metabolites) have the same unit
2 hours
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) (UI/L)
24 hours
Alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) (UI/L)
24 hours
Alkaline Phosphatase PALK (UI/L)
24 hours
Bilirubin (μmol/L)
24hours
Gamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase (UI/L)
24 hours
Study Arms (2)
blood sampling scheme1
3 strata of 10 children and adolescents - normal weight, overweight and obese Titration of paracetamol (acetaminophen) - scheme 1
blood sampling scheme2
3 strata of 10 children and adolescents - normal weight, overweight and obese Titration of paracetamol (acetaminophen) - scheme 2
Interventions
15 to 20 minutes and 1 to 2 hours after first perfusion and before second perfusion/administration of paracetamol
30 to 40' after first perfusion and before second perfusion/administration of paracetamol (residual concentration)
Eligibility Criteria
Non-obese, overweight and obese children aged 6 to 17 scheduled for surgery requiring intravenous (IV) paracetamol injection intraoperatively.
You may qualify if:
- Child aged 6 to 17 inclusive with normal weight for age and gender (body mass index \[BMI\]\<25kg/m2 adult equivalent at 18 years \[IOTF 25\]), overweight (body mass index \[BMI\]≥ 25kg/m2 adult equivalent at age 18 \[IOTF 25\] and obese (BMI ≥ 30kg/m2 adult equivalent at age 18 \[IOTF 30\]) for age and sex
- Surgical procedure requiring treatment with paracetamol intravenously as an analgesic
- No opposition by the holder(s) of parental authority
You may not qualify if:
- History of chronic anaemia (≤ 5g/100ml)
- History of hepatocellular insufficiency (ASAT, ALAT ≥ 3N)
- History of renal impairment (\<60mL/min\*1.73m2)
- History of Gilbert's disease
- History of Type 2 diabetes
- Major motor or neurological disability
- Patients treated with medicinal products known to affect CYP2E1 or UGT (UDP glucuronosyltransferase): isoniazid, antiepileptic drugs (carbamazepine, phenytoin or phenobarbital), antiretroviral and tyrosine kinase inhibitors
