About this study

Single center study in ICU patients with augmented renal clearance comparing glomerular filtration rate (GFR) as measured by iohexol plasma clearance to that measured by creatinine clearance. Primary objective is to compare the GFR estimates made by iohexol plasma clearance (as reference method) and creatinine clearance using Bland-Altman method.

Secondary objective are to compare GFR as measured by iohexol plasma clearance to that calculated with the most commonly used renal clearance estimating formulas (Cockcroft and Gault, MDRD and CKD-EPI ), evaluate clinical determinant of the observed differences and evaluate determinants of extracellular volume.

Treatment and study plan

Iohexol

Drug

Intravenous injection of 5 ml of iohexol (Omnipaque) to calculate the glomerular filtration rate (area under the curve).

Blood samples (2 ml) and urine (2 ml minimum) are to be collected for the determination of iohexol clearance at the following time points: pre-dose, 5 minutes, and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 hours post dose.

Other names: Omnipaque

Primary outcomes

  1. GFR obtained by the iohexol clearance technique

    Time frame: 6 hours

    GFR as measured by iohexol plasma clearance to evaluate its concordance, by the Bland and Altman method, with that obtained by measuring the clearance of creatinine.

  2. GFR obtained by the creatinine clearance technique

    Time frame: 6 hours

    GFR as measured by creatinine plasma clearance

Secondary outcomes

  1. GFR calculated using the Cockroft-Gault equation

    Time frame: 6 hours

    Estimation of GFR using the Cockroft-Gault method based on the serum creatinine clearance measured on the day of intervention and the patient's weight of the day, and the agreement with the GFR measured by the iohexol clearance

  2. GFR calculated using the Modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula

    Time frame: 6 hours

    Estimation of GFR using MDRD method based on the serum creatinine clearance measured on the day of intervention and the patient's weight of the day, and the agreement with the GFR measured by the iohexol clearance

  3. GFR calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease - Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation

    Time frame: 6 hours

    Estimation of GFR using CKD-EPI method based on the serum creatinine clearance measured on the day of intervention and the patient's weight of the day, and the agreement with the GFR measured by the iohexol clearance

  4. Plasmatic Levetiracetam dosing

    Time frame: 6 hours

    To detect underdosing and risk of therapeutic failure of Levetiracetam

  5. Plasmatic Vancomycin dosing

    Time frame: 6 hours

    To detect underdosing and risk of therapeutic failure of Vancomycin

  6. Plasmatic Piperacillin dosing

    Time frame: 6 hours

    To detect underdosing and risk of therapeutic failure of Piperacillin

  7. Plasmatic Cefotaxim dosing

    Time frame: 6 hours

    To detect underdosing and risk of therapeutic failure of Cefotaxim

  8. Plasmatic Aminoglycoside dosing

    Time frame: 6 hours

    To detect underdosing and risk of therapeutic failure of Aminoglycoside
