Abstract:
Very little data exist regarding the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on cefuroxime (CXM) pharmacokinetics in children less than one year of age.50 mg kg CXM i.v. after induction were followed by 75 mg kg into the CPB circuit. In 42 patients undergoing cardiac surgery, 15-20 samples were obtained between 5 and 360 min after the first dose. Total CXM concentrations were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography and a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modelling was performed.U...     »
