Abstract
Routinely used kidney biomarkers of injury and function such as serum creatinine and urine albumin to creatinine ratio, are neither sensitive nor specific. Future biomarkers are being developed for clinical use and have already been included in guidance from groups such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Predictive Safety Testing Consortium. These biomarkers have important implications for early identification of kidney injury and more accurate measurement of kidney function. Many antibiotics are either eliminated by the kidney or can cause clinically significant nephrotoxicity. As a result, clinicians should be familiar with new biomarkers of kidney function and injury, their place in clinical practice, and applications for antibiotic dosing.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents is a peer-reviewed publication offering comprehensive and current reference information on the physical, pharmacological, in vitro, and clinical properties of individual antimicrobial agents, covering antiviral, antiparasitic, antibacterial, and antifungal agents. The journal not only communicates new trends and developments through authoritative review articles but also addresses the critical issue of antimicrobial resistance, both in hospital and community settings. Published content includes solicited reviews by leading experts and high-quality original research papers in the specified fields.
