Background: Providing data on the superior efficacy of vancomycin administered based on the area under the curve over 24 hours to the minimum inhibitory concentration of vancomycin (AUC24/MIC) is crucial. However, data on dosing and monitoring of vancomycin pharmacokinetics in the pediatric population are limited. Previous findings have suggested that intermittent infusion of vancomycin (IIV) may not achieve the desired levels. Continuous infusions of vancomycin (CIV) reach the desired serum concentration faster than IIV and are associated with reduced nephrotoxicity. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the concentrations, AUC24, clinical variables, and adverse effects of two vancomycin administration methods in the pediatric population. Methods: This study was a double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial conducted at a tertiary children's teaching hospital. Inclusion criteria were age between 2 months and 15 years and weight less than 67 kilograms, with exclusion criteria including renal impairment. Participants were divided into CIV and IIV groups following distinct administration protocols. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data, including vancomycin serum concentrations, were compiled. Assessments included pediatric mortality risk, pediatric sequential organ failure assessment, and regular temperature monitoring. Pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted using Monolix software 2023R1. Primary endpoints were vancomycin serum levels and AUC24 between cohorts on day three, with nephrotoxicity and additional adverse drug responses evaluated. Results: Sixty-eight patients in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) were allocated to either CIV (33) or IIV (35) for vancomycin treatment. In the CIV group, 82% of patients achieved an AUC24 ≥ 400 mg.h/L, compared to 23% in the IIV group. Continuous infusions of vancomycin demonstrated a greater AUC24 (587.7 ± 184.4 mg.h/L vs. 361.9 ± 113.2 mg.h/L, P < 0.05) compared to IIV. Two cases of nephrotoxicity were reported, one in each group, with mortality and adverse events being comparable between the two groups. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that continuous vancomycin infusion has a higher success rate in safely achieving therapeutic vancomycin levels in PICU patients compared to intermittent vancomycin infusion.
