Results are reported with the following reference range:
50.0 - 306 ng/mL
Critical value high: ≥ 450 ng/ml
Ranges for immunosupressant drugs are specific to clinical protocol and published ranges may not be applicable to all patient populations. The following range is based upon the recommendations of Transplant and Pharmacy services at Strong Memorial Hospital, according to the transplantation protocols in effect at that institution.
NOTE: Immunosuppressant blood levels must be interpreted in the specific context of the patient, taking into account various risk factors and clinical variables.
Interpretive Data
Because each patient is regarded as unique in the handling of this potent immunosuppressive agent, there is no standard reference range for Cyclosporine A. The complexity of the clinical state, individual differences in sensitivity to the immunosuppressive and nephrotoxic effects of CsA, the co-administration of other immunosuppressant, the type of transplant, time post-transplant and a number of other factors will cause different requirements for optimal whole blood level of CsA. Individual whole blood CsA cannot be used as the sole indicator for making changes in the treatment regimen. Each patient should be thoroughly evaluated clinically before treatment adjustments are made and each user must establish his/her own ranges based on these clinical experiences.
