Vancomycin is commonly used for the treatment of MRSA infections in critically ill patients with renal diseases. Vancomycin is mainly eliminated through the kidney. Its excretion is therefore substantially reduced in severe renal impaired patients. Although several studies have demonstrated that significant amounts of vancomycin are removed during High-Flux/High-Efficiency Hemo Dialysis (HF/HEHD), more data are required to optimize clinical applications.
