Bayesian modelling could assist in obtaining more timely target parameters at lower doses for patients receiving continuous vancomycin infusion as part of an OPAT program, which may beget fewer adverse effects. Utilisation of personalised predictive modelling may optimise vancomycin prescribing, achieving earlier target concentrations as compared to empiric dosing regimens.
