Registration Number
NCT03632915
Lead Sponsor
University of Maryland, Baltimore
Brief Summary

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 Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Determination of drug specific sieving coefficient (SC)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

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