Pharmacokinetics of Antiepileptics in Patients on CRRT

The purpose of the study is to measure levels of any of the following AEDs (levetiracetam, phenobarbital, phenytoin, ketamine, valproic acid, lacosamide) in blood and effluent on critically ill patients receiving CRRT in order to characterize drug pharmacokinetics and optimize dosing strategies in patients on CRRT.

Primary outcomes

  1. Influence of renal replacement therapy on drug exposure (AUC of plasma concentration levels)

    Time frame: Single Dosing Interval - 12 hours

    Simultaneous samples will be taken from pre-filter, post-filter, and effluent sampling ports before dose administration, after the completion of the infusion or 1 hours post oral dose, and 6 additional time points post-infusion or post oral administration.

  2. Influence of renal replacement therapy on drug clearance

    Time frame: Single Dosing Interval - 12 hours

    Simultaneous samples will be taken from pre-filter, post-filter, and effluent sampling ports before dose administration, after the completion of the infusion or 1 hours post oral dose, and 6 additional time points post-infusion or post oral administration.

  3. Determination of drug specific sieving coefficient (SC)

    Time frame: Single Dosing Interval - 12 hours

    SC is a measure of a filter efficiency in clearing drugs and solute. SC will be calculated using pre-filter and effluent concentrations
