ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of clozapine plasma concentration in patients with mental disorders after oral administration, so as to provide reference for individualized treatment.Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on 221 inpatient reports of Clozapine blood concentration monitoring in the Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Laboratory (TDM) of the Pharmacy Department of the Chaohu Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University from January to October 2021, and information such as patient gender, age, body mass index (BMI), smoking history, clozapine dose, combined drug use and blood concentration monitoring results were collected; Single factor analysis of variance and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the monitoring results of clozapine blood concentration in patients with mental disorders and its influencing factors.Results:Among 221 monitoring reports, 74 cases (normal concentration group) had clozapine plasma concentration within the effective plasma concentration range (350-600 ng/ml), 103 cases (low concentration group) were lower than the effective plasma concentration range (<350 ng/ml), and 44 cases (high concentration group) were higher than the effective plasma concentration range (>600 ng/ml). The results of single factor analysis of variance showed that there were statistically significant differences in daily dose of clozapine, standard dose, smoking history, course of disease, and abnormal liver function of patients in different blood concentration groups of clozapine (all P<0.05). The most frequently used antipsychotic drugs in 221 patients with clozapine were sodium valproate, amisulpride, aripiprazole and lithium carbonate in turn. The proportion of clozapine combined with ≥2 antipsychotics in the normal concentration group was higher than that in the low concentration group and the high concentration group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that the combination of one antipsychotic drug and ≥ two antipsychotic drugs might help the blood concentration of clozapine in patients with mental disorders reach the target concentration (350-600 ng/ml), and the combination of two drugs was more beneficial [ OR(95% CI): 1.795(0.753-4.282)], with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Clozapine plasma concentration varies greatly among individuals, and the therapeutic window is narrow. It is necessary to adjust the dosage in combination with the basic information and clinical information of patients, and regularly monitor the plasma concentration, so as to achieve the safety and effectiveness of individualized drug use.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the detection of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs)in a hospital, evaluate the efficacy of multi-disciplinary team(MDT)on management of MDROs,and provide guidance for effective control on MDRO infection.Methods From October 2013 to September 2014,compliance to comprehensive inter-vention measures in clinical departments in different stages as well as detection of MDROs from patients were com-pared respectively.Results Compliance to comprehensive intervention measures showed an overall upward trend from the fourth quarter of 2013 to the first,second,and third quarters of 2014,difference was statistically signifi-cant (all P 0.05).Conclusion MDT on man-agement of MDROs is helpful for reducing the emergence and spread of MDROs.
