Individualized medication of digoxin based on the serum drug concentration and blood biochemical indexes
2019
Aim: The dose of digoxin is often difficult to be determined precisely. The aim of this study was to retrospectively investigate the effect of blood biochemical indexes on the serum concentration of digoxin. Materials & methods: We collected the data of hospitalized patients treated orally with digoxin in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital (Nanjing, China) from 2016 to 2018. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze the patients' comprehensive condition. Results: A total of 425 patients were included in the study. Through analysis, nine factors were included in the regression model of the serum concentration of digoxin, and this regression model showed good predictive performance (r(2) = 0.83138; p < 0.001). Conclusion: The regression model for the prediction of serum concentration of digoxin has clinical significance, and can provide research basis for individualized medication of digoxin.
