Background

Prof Lipman is Executive Director of the Burns Trauma & Critical Care Research Centre; Professor of Anesthesiology & Critical Care, The University of Queensland and until recently (for 23 years) was Director of Department of Intensive Care Medicine, Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital; He holds Honorary Professorial appointments at Chinese University of Hong Kong, Unversity of Witwatersrand (South Africa) and Qeensland University of Technology.

He has qualifications in anesthesia and intensive care and has set up and been in charge of a number of Intensive Care and Trauma Units in South Africa before coming to Australia in 1997. he currently manages a large multidisciplinary research team with an output of over 120 peer-reviewed articles per annum. He has supervised dozens of PhD students to completion and is currently supervising 6 PhD, 1 MPhil and 1 MBBS/Hons students. Prof Lipman has been instrumental in developing the anaesthesiology and critical care component of a graduate medical program for Queensland and continues to lecture to medical and postgraduate students.

Prof Lipman is the author of over 550 peer reviewed publications, 30 book chapters and has been invited to deliver over 120 lectures at national and international conferences in many countries across the world. His research interests include all aspects of infection management in intensive care and he has a special interest in the pharmacokinetics of antibiotic dosage, an area in which he received his MD in 2006. His research into antibiotic usage in acute situations has received international recognition and he is regarded as an expert in the field. As such, he and his research team have conducted and presently conduct a number of clinical trials in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Europe and the UK.

Prof Lipman is an Editorial Board member for 10 International Journals, is Section Editor on four Antibiotic related Journals, reviews for 23 journals and is an external reviewer for NHMRC project grants (Local) as well as equivalent for a number overseas countries.

He is Chief Investigator on a 7000 patient International Randomised Controlled Trial comparing bolus dosing versus continuous infusions of meropenem and piperacillin-tazobactam

Research interests

  • Antibiotic dosing in critically ill patients

    Severe sepsis is defined as failure of one or more organ systems, most commonly cardiovascular (including shock), respiratory and renal failure, caused by infection. Bacteria, either alone or in combination with other pathogens, are the most common cause of severe sepsis, and Gram-positive and Gram-negative organism account for up to 87% of culture positive episodes. Severe sepsis is a major cause of mortality worldwide. The ANZICS CTG reported that the Australian and New Zealand adult annual incidence of severe sepsis is 77 cases per 100,000,4 which is equivalent to over 17,000 patient episodes per year at an estimated cost per episode of AUD 42,300. Similar population incidence rates have been reported elsewhere. Importantly, 11.8% of all admissions to Australian and New Zealand ICUs are associated with severe sepsis and in-hospital mortality is 37.5%. In patients with septic shock, mortality approaches 60%. The burden of death is almost four times the annual national road toll. The death rate also exceeds other diseases that impact significantly on the Australian community, such as breast and colorectal cancer. In short, severe sepsis is a major public health concern in Australia and improved therapies are needed urgently. My research group is conducting national and international clinical trials investigating the effect of various dosing regimes on health outcomes in critically ill patients.

Research impacts

My research has been instrumental in changing antibiotic prescribing habits worldwide for critically ill patients, first with aminoglycosides (I did the first and still largest clinical trial to show single daily dosing to be effective) and more recently with beta-lactam antibiotics. Due to critically ill patients having altered pharmacokinetics, using standard antibiotic dosing for these patients is fraught with problems. This has led to the use of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) for beta-lactams.

TDM of aminoglycosides and glycopeptides is performed to decrease side-effects of these drugs. Beta-lactams have a large therapeutic ratio and hence measurement of them is infrequent. I helped set up routine TDM of beta-lactam antibiotics at RBWH. I have changed how we dose patients particularly in ICU but also within the wards of RBWH. By means of TDM we have shown we need dose adjustments in 74% of patients to which we administer β-lactam antibiotics in the ICU (Roberts JA et al. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2010;36:332-39). Although scarcely performed world-wide, TDM of beta-lactams is now becoming more commonly performed. We are currently collating data from 5 International centres that also use TDM in an attempt to show outcome benefits of TDM and are starting to publish accordingly (Wong G et al. An international, multi-centre survey of beta-lactam antibiotics TDM practice in intensive care units. J Antimicrob Chemother 2014;69: 1416–1423).
