Colistin
About this trial
This is an interventional other trial for Colistin focused on measuring colistin, critically ill, pharmacokinetics, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, investigator-initiated study
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥ 18 years
- Men and women (with a negative pregnancy test prior to study enrolment in women of childbearing potential)
- Hospitalized at the Department of Anaesthesiology and Resuscitation, St. Anne´s University Hospital Brno
- Indication for parenteral colistin (or CMS) as part of standard medical care, i.e., in patients with severe bacterial infection
- Informed consent given. In unconscious patients, the study investigator will decide whether to include the patient in the study; this decision is made whenever possible in a medical council consisting of at least one independent physician informed about the study details and one study investigator. An interim informed consent will be given after considering all individual risks. In this case, the Ethics Committee of St. Anne's Hospital in Brno will be informed of the patient's inclusion. The investigator will ask study participants in whom good quality consciousness is restored to give subsequent informed consent without unreasonable delay.
Additional inclusion criterion:
For some patients (15 individuals are expected), in addition to all the criteria listed in the Eligibility Criteria section, the following inclusion criterion is provided:
- ECMO support is needed as part of standard therapy for severe respiratory failure.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnancy,
- Breast-feeding,
- Refusal to give the informed consent (primarily or after regaining consciousness).

Critically ill patients with ECMO
Critically ill patients without ECMO
The subjects connected to ECMO will be treated with colistin ain approved dosing - a loading dose of 9 MIU intravenously over 30 minutes followed after 12 hours by a maintenance dose of 4,5 MIU intravenously over 30 minutes every 12 hours. Only in patients requiring continuous renal replacement methods will the interval of the maintenance doses be 8 hours.
The subjects not connected to ECMO will be treated with colistin ain approved dosing - a loading dose of 9 MIU intravenously over 30 minutes followed after 12 hours by a maintenance dose of 4,5 MIU intravenously over 30 minutes every 12 hours. Only in patients requiring continuous renal replacement methods will the interval of the maintenance doses be 8 hours.
