Arguments

PATID

Patient Identifier. User-provided free text (such as patient id, name or alias) to identify related simulations. Must be provided as string.

AGE

Age. Age of the patient in years. Must be provided as numeric (min. 18, max. 120 year).

HEIGHT

Height. Height of the patient. Must be provided as numeric (min. 100, max. 250 cm).

WEIGHT

Weight. Actual body weight of the patient. Must be provided as numeric (min. 20, max. 500 kg).

GENDER

Sex. Patient's sex for clinical decision-making. Must be provided as string ('Male' or 'Female').

PHENYTOINSODIUM

Phenytoin form. Form of phenytoin to be used during simulations. Must be provided as string ('Phenytoin sodium').

MODEL

Model for population of interest. Pharmacokinetic model to be used for specific patient type during simulations. Must be provided as string ('Muñoz et al. (2019) - ICU').

RENALFUNCTIONSTATUS

Renal function status. Renal function status of the patient. Must be provided as string ('Patients without renal impairment' or 'Dialysis or End-Stage Renal Disease').

VALPROICACID

Valproic acid blood level (leave empty if none). Total valproic acid concentration, leave empty or set to zero if no concurrent administration. Must be provided as numeric (min. 0, max. 500 mg/L).

CMIN

Goal corrected phenytoin trough level. Corrected phenytoin level is calculated using the May Equation given a measured valproic acid level, or with the help of Winter-Tozer Equation which involves the serum albumin level and renal function status. Must be provided as numeric (min. 5, max. 30 mg/L).

ORALORIVHISTORYWITHALBUMIN

Historical Records. Must be provided as list of 1-48 'HISTALBUMIN', 'HISTDOSE', 'HISTORALDOSE' or 'HISTCONCENTRATION' values.

ORALORIVREGIMENS

Dosing Regimens. List of dosing regimens to be used in simulating target attainment, from which the dosing regimen with the smallest absolute difference from the desired target will be automatically selected. Must be provided as list of 1-20 'REGIMEN' or 'ORALREGIMEN' values. Use the regimen helper function to define the REGIMEN values.

Details

Drug: Phenytoin

Method: Estimate the pharmacokinetic parameters of the patient from past concentrations with Bayesian inverse modeling, then use that information to predict the steady state concentrations for multiple dosing regimens and select the optimal one, with regard to the target pharmacodynamic index.

PK/PD target: Normalized minimum blood plasma concentration (mg/L).
