Dear Colleagues,
I have received significant feed-back on the initial proposal to prepare
consensus/review documents through the PharmPK list. Although one clearly
negative opinion has been expressed, the proposal has received a warm
acceptance (9 messages). Furthermore, Dr. David Bourne (co-ordinator of the
PharmPK list) has also expressed a positive view. After gathering all the
information, it seems possible to conduct this new activity through our
list. It should not interfere much with the normal free-flow in the list,
since only the initial/ intermediate/final documents will be circulated to
all members, but not the amendments and comments, which must be e-mailed
directly to the co-ordinator designated for each individual document.
Consequently, much of the traffic will be off the list, and the group will
be kept up-to-date and able to contribute.
Main objective: To prepare consensus/review documents on selected
pharmacokinetic topics for the advance of scientific knowledge and health
care. (Please note that these documents have not a predetermined format nor
length).
Secondary objectives:
1.- to activate and to promote the PharmPK list.
2.- to show that lists on the Internet are a valuable and efficient
tool for the advance of health care sciences.
Participants: members of the PharmPK list.
Sources: bibliographic material, own research and/or clinical experience.
Possible schedule (although it will probably be more flexible):
1.- A member of the list identifies a topic worthy of review and/or
consensus, suggests the topic and a co-ordinator.
2.- The co-ordinator prepares a basic document.
3.- The basic document is posted through the list to all members.
4.- For a given term, those willing to participate and contribute to
document should post their comments and amendments directly (e-mail) to the
co-ordinator.
5.- The co-ordinator produces a new document.
6.- These new document/s is/are again circulated through the list
for re-consideration.
7.- Finally and for a short term, last amendments and comments may
be posted (e-mail) to the co-ordinator.
8.- The co-ordinator prepares a final document and sends it for
publication to an adequate journal. An WWW version will also be produced.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS (please, e-mail to Crisanto.Ronchera.-at-.uv.es):

Let us put to work !.

Dear Colleagues,
Four different issues have already been identified and proposed on which
useful consensus/review documents could be prepared. These are:
1.- Utility of monitoring vancomycin serum concentrations.
2.- Continuous infusion of beta-lactam antibiotics.
3.- Once-daily dosing of aminoglycoside antibiotics.
4.- Cost-utility of bayesian methodology of pharmacokinetic analysis
in the clinical setting.
This message is a call for individuals willing to act as co-ordinators for
any of these topics (or others that they may propose).
Please, e-mail to Crisanto.Ronchera.-at-.uv.es:
- topic (title):
- co-ordinator (name and e-mail address):
We want you.
Best regards,
Cris Ronchera-Oms, Valencia, Spain.

Dear Colleagues,
These are the topics on which consensus documents will be prepared and the
coordinators appointed for each topic:
1.- Utility of monitoring vancomycin serum concentrations.
Dr. Douglas C. Anderson
Department of Clinical Pharmacy Practice
University of Mississipi School of Pharmacy
e-mail: doogie.aaa.fiona.umsmed.edu
2.- Continuous infusion of beta-lactam antibiotics.
Dr. Les White and Dr. Alasdair MacGowan
Department of Microbiology
Southmead Health Services NHS Trust
Bristol, UK

3.- Once-daily dosing of aminoglycoside antibiotics.
Dr. N. Anaizi

We would like to encourage you to e-mail any information (text, comments,
references) that you may consider of value directly to the coordinator (not
through the list).
For each topic, the coordinator will prepare a basic document to be posted
to and reviewed by all members of the PharmPK list.
Best regards,
Cris Ronchera-Oms, Valencia, Spain.
