Objective

To investigate the influence of augmented renal clearance (ARC) on the steady-state serum concentration and pharmacodynamics of meropenem in patients with severe infections and to analyze the linear relationship between them.

Methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted on the inpatients who received meropenem treatment and underwent therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) at the Fifth Medical Center of the General Hospital of the PLA from June 2021 to September 2024. Serum drug concentration data were collected, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a one-compartment model. The steady-state serum concentrations and pharmacodynamic parameters were compared between patients with normal renal function and those with ARC. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to explore the factors influencing meropenem serum concentrations and pharmacodynamic parameters.

Results

When meropenem was administered at a dose of 1.0 g three times daily, the blood concentrations in patients with ARC at 3 hours and 0.5 hours before the last administration were (4.78±2.34) mg·L-1 and (2.44±1.60) mg·L-1, respectively. In contrast, the corresponding concentrations in patients with normal renal function were (14.08±10.45) mg·L-1 and (8.40±7.07) mg·L-1, respectively. The blood concentrations of meropenem were significantly lower in ARC patients compared to those with normal renal function (P<0.05). For the pharmacodynamic target of f%T>4MIC≥40%, the target attainment rates in ARC patients were 81.25%, 25.00%, 0.00%, and 0.00% at MIC values of 1, 2, 4, and 8 μg·mL-1, respectively. In comparison, the rates in patients with normal renal function were 92.31%, 76.92%, 53.85%, and 7.69%, respectively, indicating significantly lower target attainment in the ARC group. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that creatinine clearance rate and serum albumin level significantly influenced both the plasma concentration and pharmacodynamic target attainment of meropenem.

Conclusion

ARC significantly reduces the steady-state serum concentration of meropenem and the rate of achieving pharmacodynamic targets, leading to the failure of anti-infective therapy. For patients with severe infections and ARC, attention should be paid to the effects of creatinine clearance, serum albumin on serum drug concentrations and therapeutic efficacy. TDM should be performed to adjust the dosing regimen in a timely manner.
