One of the most important factors that impact on the incidence of these adverse reactions is the vancomycin infusion rate.
In our cardiosurgical center vancomycin is administered pro-phylactically before induction of anaesthesia in all patients undergoing open-heart surgery, and in some such patients we have observed the occurrence of pruritus, localized or generalized, during infusion of the antibiotic.
If mean blood pressure decreased by more than 20%, then more fluids and/or boluses of ephedrine were infused, vancomycin infusion was temporarily discontinued and the patient was excluded from the study.
For this reason, the international literature recommends that vancomycin be infused over a period of 60 min in order to prevent these side effects, and hypotension in particular, which in some cases manifests as life-threatening shock [ 6, 8, 9, 16].
Also, Valero and coworkers [ 7] administered 1 g vancomycin over 30 min to cardiac surgical patients and observed hypotension in 25% of cases.
