Amikacin requires pharmacodynamic targets of peak serum concentration (C (max)) of 8-10 times the minimal inhibitory concentration, corresponding to a target C (max) of 60-80 mg/L for the less susceptible bacteria. Even with new dosing regimens of 25 mg/kg, 30 % of patients do not meet the pharmacodynamic target. We aimed to identify predictive factors for insufficient C (max) in a population of critically ill patients.Prospective observational monocentric study of patients admitted to a general ICU and requiring a loading dose of amikacin. Amikacin was administered intravenously at the dose of 25 mg/kg of total body weight. Independent determinants of C (max) < 60 mg/L were identified by mixed model multivariate analysis.Over a 1-year period, 181 episodes in 146 patients (SAPS 2 = 51 [41-68]) were included. At inclusion, the SOFA score was 8 [6-12], 119 (66 %) episodes required vasopressors, 150 (83 %) mechanical ventilation, and 81 (45 %) renal replacement therapy. The amikacin C (max) was 69 [54.9-84.4] mg/L. Overall, 60 (33 %) episodes had a C (max) < 60 mg/L. The risk of C (max) < 60 mg/L associated with BMI < 25 kg/m(2) varied across quarters of inclusion. Independent risk factors for C (max) < 60 mg/L were a BMI < 25 kg/m(2) over the first quarter (odds ratio (OR) 15.95, 95 % confidence interval (CI) [3.68-69.20], p < 0.001) and positive 24-h fluid balance (OR per 250-mL increment 1.06, 95 % [CI 1.01-1.11], p = 0.018).Despite an amikacin dose of 25 mg/kg of total body weight, 33 % of patients still had an amikacin C (max) < 60 mg/L. Positive 24-h fluid balance was identified as a predictive factor of C (max) < 60 mg/L. When total body weight is used, low BMI tended to be associated with amikacin underdosing. These results suggest the need for higher doses in patients with a positive 24-h fluid balance in order to reach adequate therapeutic targets.
