Abstract

Historically, vancomycin has been given to children in intensive care units when a Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is suspected. Because renal impairment is a potential side effect, it is essential that the dosage be carefully monitored. If you're trying to figure out how much vancomycin to give your dog, you may want to use the dog's trough concentration as a guide. The purpose of the research was to evaluate young patients in the paediatric intensive care unit. Twenty kids in the paediatric intensive care unit at Benha University Hospital were the subjects of this investigation. More instances need to be studied, hence the study has to be expanded.
