Elimination of Antibiotics During Renal Replacement Therapy and Cytosorb Adsorptive Therapy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Cytokine adsorption using the cytosorb adsorber is currently investigated to reduce the levels of proinflammatory cytokines in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. The adsorber is frequently used in series with continuous renal replacement therapy. Up to date, no data on the removal of antibiotic drugs during combined renal replacement therapy and cytokine adsorptive therapy is available. Therefore, we want to investigate
- whether and to what extent antibiotic drugs (piperacillin/tazobactam and imipenem/cilastatin) are removed during combined continuous renal replacement therapy and cytosorb adsorption in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock

Detailed Description
Patients in this trial are undergoing renal replacement therapy as part of their routine care. Thus, this is an observational trial.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Piperacillin/Tazobactam Critically ill patients teated with piperacillin/tazobactam undergoing renal replacement therapy and cytosorb absorption during sepsis |
Other: Monitoring of antibiotic drug removal
No study specific intervention will be performed
|
Imipenem/Cilastatin Critically ill patients teated with imipenem/cilastatin undergoing renal replacement therapy and cytosorb absorption during sepsis |
Other: Monitoring of antibiotic drug removal
No study specific intervention will be performed

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Removal of antibiotic drugs during the first 8 hours of combined continuous renal replacement therapy and cytosorb adsorption [8 hours]
Removal of antibiotic drugs during combined CRRT and adsorption will be evaluated by calculating total filter clearance using the drug concentration pre- and postfilter as well as the dialysate concentration. The adsorptive clearance will be evaluated using the pre- and postadsorber concentration. The outcome measure will be removal of antibiotic drug [mg/8 h dosing interval].
