to emergency care. Vancomycin is eliminated by glomerular filtration, but current approaches to estimate kidney function in children are unreliable. The authors sought to compare the suitability of cystatin C (CysC)-based glomerular filtration rate equations with the most commonly used creatinine-based equation, bedside Schwartz, to estimate vancomycin clearance (CL). This prospective observational study enrolled critically ill patients (2-18 years) receiving intravenous vancomycin at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia during De
