title: [The importance of software for the planning and adjusting of dosage. Application with aminoglycosides].
abstract: We are presenting a Mac Intosh--Apple computer program (Excel*) for the aminoglycosides (AG) drug monitoring useful in the following situations: --initiation of an AG's dosing regimen depending on the desired peak and through concentration (AG's pharmacokinetic parameters have been calculated according to the AG's literature values). --an adequate dosing regimen after revision of the patient's parameters (calculated with the observed concentrations). The technique has been validated comparing desired (des. C) and measured concentrations (mes. C). --either at the beginning of the treatment, --or after revision of the individual parameters. In the first case, the correlation coefficient obtained between 14 des C and 14 mes. C is equal to 0.91 and is improved when individual parameters are calculated (0.94).
