— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
萬古黴素(Vancomycin)是臨床常見具耳毒性與腎毒性的抗生素。使用時需監測波谷濃度(Trough level)以調整劑量。耳毒性症狀包括耳鳴、聽力喪失或眩暈,若發現上述症狀應立即停藥並通知醫師,以防造成不可逆的聽力損傷。
Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic known for its potential to cause ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Nurses should monitor trough levels and watch for symptoms such as tinnitus, hearing loss, or dizziness. Immediate notification of the provider is necessary if these signs appear to prevent irreversible damage.
✦ 台美臨床差異
台灣針對萬古黴素的波谷濃度監測通常由臨床藥師介入協助,美國護理師則常需根據醫院 Protocol 判斷抽血時間並執行。
