Bioavailability Study Design: Single Versus Multiple Dose Studies01:11

Bioavailability Study Design: Single Versus Multiple Dose Studies

307
Bioavailability studies are essential for understanding how a drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted in the body. These studies assess the extent and rate at which the active pharmaceutical agent becomes available at the site of action. The design of bioavailability studies can involve single-dose or multiple-dose regimens, each with distinct advantages and limitations.Single-dose studies are the preferred approach due to their simplicity and reduced drug exposure for...

Three-Compartment Open Model01:06

Three-Compartment Open Model

1.1K
The three-compartment open model is a pharmacokinetic model used to describe the distribution and elimination of drugs following extravascular administration. It comprises a central compartment representing the plasma and two peripheral compartments. The highly perfused peripheral compartment represents organs and tissues with a rich blood supply, such as the liver, kidneys, and lungs. The scarcely perfused peripheral compartment represents tissues with lower blood supply, such as adipose...

Determination of Multiple Dosing Parameters: Steady-State, Minimum and Maximum Concentrations

307
Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, is commonly administered via intermittent intravenous infusion to treat severe infections. An intermittent one-hour infusion of gentamicin, administered at eight-hour intervals, allows for precise control of plasma drug concentrations, minimizing toxicity while ensuring therapeutic efficacy. Pharmacokinetic principles govern the dynamics of plasma concentrations and can be mathematically described using specific equations.The plasma drug concentration...

Drug Accumulation During Multiple Dosing: Repetitive IV Injections

367
Calculating drug dosage and accumulation in multiple-dose regimens is crucial for achieving therapeutic efficacy while avoiding toxicity. This involves determining the plasma drug concentrations over time to optimize dosing schedules. The principle of superposition is fundamental in this process, allowing for the prediction of drug concentration in plasma following multiple doses based on single-dose data.The principle of superposition asserts that the plasma concentration-time curves from...

Dosage Regimens: Partial Pharmacokinetic Parameters01:01

Dosage Regimens: Partial Pharmacokinetic Parameters

246
It is not uncommon for complete drug pharmacokinetic profiles to remain elusive in pharmacokinetics. This necessitates certain educated assumptions by pharmacokineticists to determine appropriate dosage regimens without comprehensive pharmacokinetic data from animal or human studies. One prevalent assumption is setting the bioavailability factor, denoted as F, to 1 or 100%. This assumption caters to the scenario where a drug doesn't achieve full systemic absorption, resulting in the patient...

One-Compartment Open Model for IV Bolus Administration: Estimation of Clearance

441
Clearance is a key pharmacokinetic parameter that quantifies the volume of body fluid from which a drug is entirely removed within a specific time frame. It is crucial in assessing how a drug is eliminated from the body and has critical clinical applications.
In the one-compartment open model for intravenous (IV) bolus administration, clearance is estimated by dividing the elimination rate by the plasma drug concentration. This equation leverages the elimination rate constant and the apparent...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Admissions Processes
  • Psychometrics

Background:

  • The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy implemented a new admissions model in 2013.
  • A satellite campus in Asheville, North Carolina, required an effective admissions tool.
  • The multiple mini-interview (MMI) was chosen as a key component of this new model.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the multiple mini-interview (MMI) as a viable admissions tool for a pharmacy school satellite campus.
  • To determine the MMI's validity and utility in candidate selection for this specific setting.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented the MMI for 73 candidates interviewed by 15 raters at the satellite campus (2013-2015).
  • Utilized many-facet Rasch measurement (MFRM) to analyze variance from rater severity, candidate ability, and station difficulty.
  • Surveyed candidates to assess their perceptions of the MMI process.

Main Results:

  • Rasch measures explained 48.3% of the total variance in candidate scores.
  • Candidate ability accounted for a significant 36.2% of the variance.
  • Eighty percent of surveyed candidates agreed interviewers understood them through their answers.

Conclusions:

  • The MMI demonstrates utility and validity as an admissions selection tool for satellite pharmacy campuses.
  • The MMI effectively differentiates candidate abilities and provides valuable insights for admissions committees.
