Anti microbial ( antibiotics ) chemotherapy have had a major impact on life threatening infections
One of the greatest triumphs of modern medicine has been the introduction of a rational system of antimicrobial chemotherapy to fight against infectious diseases. Since time immemorial, people have used use mussels or mussel extracts to treat infections. In the early days of microbiology, an attempt was made to use extracts of fungal cultures to prevent infections of surgical wounds.
PRINCIPLES OF USE
Antibiotics are among the safest of medicines, especially for community infections, and a significant impact on life-threatening infections and reduce morbidity associated with many common infectious disease.This in turn is partly responsible for the overprescribing of these drugs, which led to concern about the increasing resistance to antibiotics.
Most antibiotic prescribing, particularly in the community, is empirical. While in hospital practice, microbiological documentation of the nature of infection and the sensitivity of the pathogen is not usually available for a day or two. the initial choice of treatment depends on clinical diagnosis and in turn a provisional microbiological diagnosis. This treatment "blind therapy targeting the pathogen most likely responsible for a specific syndrome, such as meningitis, urinary tract infection or pneumonia. Initial critically ill patients are often broad to cover the range of possible pathogens, but should be reduced when the microbiological data available.
BACTERICIDAL VERSUS BACTERIOSTATIC
In most infections there is no conclusive evidence that bactericidal drugs (penicillins, cepholosporins, aminoglycosides) are more effective than bacteriostatic drugs, but it is generally considered necessary to resort to the former i treat bacterial endocarditis in patients with mechanisms host defense are involved, particularly those with neutropenia. drug combinations are often necessary for reasons other providin spectrum covers - large. Initially Tuberculosis is treated with three or four agents to avoid resistance to inhibition emerging.Synergistic is obtained through the use of penicillin and gentamicin in enterococcal endocarditis or gentamicin and ceftazidime in life - threatening Pseudomonas infection.
PHARMACOKINETIC FACTORS
To be successful enough to receive an antibiotic to penetrate the site of infection. Knowledge of standard pharmacokinetic aspects of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs have varied. difficult areas are the brain, eye and prostate cancer, but loculated abscesses are inaccssible most authors. Many of mild to moderate infections can be treated is compatible. Parenteral administration is reported seriously ill patients to ensure a rapid blood and tissue concentrations of antibiotics drug.Some only be administered parenterally, such as aminoglycosides and broad-spectrum cephalosporins. parenteral therapy is needed even to those who are unable to swallow or if gastrointestinal absorption is unreliable.
ANTIBIOTIC CHEMOPROPHYLAXIS
These are some indications the use of condoms antibiotics.These understand the conditions where the risk of infection is high (colon surgery), or the consequences of a severe infection (endocarditis, sepsis, post-splenectomy). The selection is determined by representatives of the likely risk of infectious disease and confirmed the efficacy and safety of treatment..... read more
