Abstract：Objectives To investigate vancomycin usage in ICU and to rationalize the use of vancomycin.Methods Vancomycin consumption, usage and methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus case detection rate of vancomycin in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. From January 2008 to June 2009, the clinical usage of vancomycin was analyzed. Results The consummation of vancomycin in 2007 was more than other years and so was the incidence rate of MRSA. The average incidence rate of MRSA was 62. 8% in ICU. The regimen of 1 g q12h was used most frequently in the 74 study cases. Conclusions The usage of vancomycin in ICU of our hospital was basi-cally reasonable. Blood concentration monitoring should be strengthened in the future. Personalized administration plan should be implemented by pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic theory.
