Abstract

Antibiotic dosing for critically ill patients that is derived from other patient groups is likely to be suboptimal because of significant antibiotic pharmacokinetic changes, particularly in terms of drug volume of distribution and clearance. Organ support techniques including renal replacement therapy (RRT) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) increase the pharmacokinetic variability. This article reviews the recently published antibiotic pharmacokinetic data associated with burns patients, those receiving continuous RRT (CRRT), sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) and ECMO.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 September 2012.
All research outputs
#20,656,161
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Current Opinion in Critical Care
#1,208
of 1,441 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#148,863
of 190,995 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Opinion in Critical Care
#14
of 19 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,441 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.2. This one is in the 2nd percentile – i.e., 2% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 190,995 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 19 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
