Using Residual Blood from the Arterial Blood Gas Test to Perform Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Vancomycin: An Example of Good Clinical Practice Moving towards a Sustainable Intensive Care Unit

<div>Deming regression between vancomycin concentrations for conventional K<sub>2</sub>EDTA tubes and LiHep syringes. The black line, black-dashed lines, and grey line represent the Deming regression, the 95% confidence interval, and the unity line <i>Y</i> = <i>X</i>, respectively. LiHep, lithium heparin; K<sub>2</sub>EDTA, dipotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; mg/L, milligram per liter.</div>
