简要总结

Antibiotic prophylaxis is essential for all types of cardiac surgery under Extracorporeal Circulation (ECC), in order to reduce the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI). However, many patients are allergic to beta-lactam antibiotics. All the more, vancomycin antibiotic recommended as replacement is not without adverse effects and frequently administered in an inappropriate manner in terms of pre-intervention timing, linked to its complex use on peripheral venous lines complicated by venotoxicity. Non-compliance with the correct use of antibiotic prophylaxis in surgery is responsible for nosocomial infections, which have an impact on both the patient and the healthcare establishment in terms of costs, particularly in cardiac surgery.

Drug pharmacokinetics are more complex under bypass surgery (high volume of distribution), and studies are needed to determine the correct administration and diffusion of drugs.

In this respect, clindamycin is an antibiotic already used in antibiotic prophylaxis for other surgeries (thoracic, orthopedic...) in cases of allergy to beta-lactam antibiotics, but to date there are no studies examining the pharmacokinetics of this molecule in the context of cardiac surgery under ECC.

The aim of this protocol is to demonstrate the feasibility of using clindamycin in patients undergoing ECC surgery, by verifying that the plasma concentration of clindamycin exceeds the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of the main bacteria involved in mediastinitis throughout the surgical procedure.

详细描述

ECC is indispensable for cardiac surgery, but this assistance modifies the pharmacological properties of drugs, with a particular increase in the volume of distribution of antibiotics such as clindamycin. All these factors lead to an increase in the dosage of certain drugs and more frequent injections.

Robust data on percutaneous clindamycin treatment would therefore enable to improve the management of this type of patient, with real impact.

There are currently no pharmacological studies justifying the use of clindamycin to combat nosocomial infections in cardiac surgery, despite the fact that its anti-bacterial spectrum is identical to that of the antibiotics currently used in patients (methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA)).

Clindamycin is simpler to use and does not induce venotoxicity. The fact that the patient is undergoing bypass surgery means that pharmacokinetic studies can be carried out with several blood samples taken from the arterial pressure catheter routinely inserted in all surgical patients, in order to limit the volume of blood taken and avoid any discomfort for the patient. This would make it possible to check the plasma stability of this antibiotic over several periods, with reinjections if necessary (if surgery > 4h).

The hypotheses are that clindamycin (i) is simple to use, (ii) has correct and stable diffusion kinetics in patients undergoing scheduled cardiac surgery with ECC (iii) is well tolerated by patients (iv) has an estimated free plasma concentration above the epidemiological threshold Minimal Inhibition Concentration (MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus and therefore provides sufficient protection against SSI.

结局指标

主要结局

Plasma clindamycin concentrations

时间窗: H0 (at incision), then every hour, and at the end of surgery (defined as sternal closure)

To demonstrate the feasibility of using clindamycin in patients undergoing ECC and to assure that plasma clindamycin concentrations remain above the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of the main bacteria involved in mediastinitis, estimated free plasma clindamycin concentration will be verify throughout surgery. The free plasma concentration of clindamycin is estimated by measuring the total plasma concentration of clindamycin, based on a bound fraction of 80 to 94%.The epidemiological threshold MIC for S. aureus (ECOFF = 0.25 mg/L for clindamycin) was chosen for comparison with clindamycin concentrations, given that this bacterium is the main one implicated in mediastinitis.
