Definition
influenza, pseudomonas, legionella, other ellas
Term

Definition
e. coli
klebsiella
proteus
h pylori
salmonella
shigella
bacteroides
Term
2 filemantous microbes
Definition
mycobacteria actinomyces
Term
3 anaerobes
Definition
actinomyces, bacteroides, blostridium
Term
2 microbes without cell wall
Definition
mycoplasma, ureaplasma
Term
2 obligigate intracellular parasite bacteria
Definition
chlymadia, rickettsia
Term
what can misuse of antibiotics cause (2)
Definition
resistance and life threatning infections
Term
why do microbes cause symotoms (5)
Definition
tissue injury: endo and exotoxins
host response; cytokines, hydrolytic enzymes, PMN
Term
what are the 8 steps in antibiotic perscribing
Definition
perform h+p

collect specimine and send for diagnosis - if you dont know what it is already by symptoms, probablly begin treatment before the results

use epidemology to choose correct drug

tailor drug to the host immune system and diseases

move from broad/empiric to specific/narrow spectrum once etiology or microbe has been identified

monitor for reaction or treatment failure

assess risk of infection to the ocmmunity

assess opportunity for prevention in the patient and others
Term
where do immunocompitent patients get microbes
Definition
external enivornment (pathogenic microbes)
Term
where do immunocompormised patients get microbes
Definition
from their own body (endogenous flora)
Term
how can bacteria be acquired
Definition
contact, inhalation, common vehicle, vectors, food, water, sex
Term
what do you need to collect from a patient when you suspect an infection (3), why
Definition
when where and whith who, helps find best treatment
Term
hospital acquired infections; what are they associated with, what is a concern, what do you do
Definition
associated with procedures

more likley to be resistant

know what infections are are your institution
Term
what are the 5 parts to determining susceptability
Definition
MIC, MBC, tolerance, bactriostatic, bacteriocidial
Term
what is MIC
Definition
minimum inhibitory concentration

lowest concentration of antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth after 24 hours on a specific medium
Term
what is MBC
Definition
minimum bactericidial concentration

lowest concentration that prevents growtn on antibiotic free medium, then culture with antibiotic and re-plate on antibiotic free medium if there is no growth it is dead
Term
what is tolerance
Definition
microbe is tolerante to the antibiotic when it needs 32x more than the MIC to be killed
Term
define bacteriostatic
Definition
only kills in suprapharamacological doses
inhibits microbe growth
Term
define batericidial
Definition
have MBC 405x the MIC
kill microbes
Term
what are the 5 pharamacologic factors that effect antibiotic activity
Definition
choose a drug that is selectivly active for the infecting organism

absorption from the site of administration

delivery to the infected region

penetration to the site of infection

maintience of adequate amounts of active drug
Term
what is the point of a microbiostatic agent if it dosent kill
Definition
stops growth then the immune system can kill
Term
if someone is immune compormized what kind of drug do they need
Definition
microbicidial, static depends on the immune system to finish the job
Term
why would you use paraentral for administration
Definition
life threatning infection
Term
which mode of administration is preferred, why (3)
Definition
oral: easy safe, cheap
Term
when a patient is critically ill, how can you make extra sure you drug is being absorbed
Definition
check plasma concentrations
Term
what affects delivery of a drug to the approporate region
Definition
protein binding
Term
which three infections is penetration to the site of infection critical
Definition
suprelative meningitis, bacterial endocarditis, septic arthritis
Term
what are 4 types of toxicity antibiotics can cause, which is the most common
Definition
dose related: most common
allergic reaction
toxic to altered host
toxic in pregnacy
Term
what antibiotics are known for causing allergic reactions (2)
Definition
penicillin, cephalosporins
Term
what does it mean "toxicity due to altered host" (4)
Definition
action of the drug is affected by genetics, other drugs, or altered elimination

they antibiotic may alter normal flora and promote selection of anaerobic infection (C. diff)
Term
why cant you use tetracyclins in pregnacy (2)
Definition
tooth malformation, staining
Term
why cant you use aminoglycosides in pregnacy (2)
Definition
nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity
Term
why cant you use quinolones in pregnacy (1)
Definition
arthropathy
Term
why cant you use sulfonamides in pregnacy (2)
Definition
displace bilirubin from albumin
produce ketones
Term
why cant you use chloramphenicol in pregnacy (1)
Definition
gray baby syndrome: baby cannot glucuronate the drug due to lack of transferase so it accumulates and looks gray
Term
what are three symptoms of gray baby syndrome
Definition
flaccidity, ashen color, cardiovascular collapse
Term
define synergy
Definition
two antibiotics work n different sites and cause a greater effect when working together
Term
what are 4 reasons we use antibiotics in combination
Definition
synergy
extent antimicrobial spectrum
prevent resistance
treat mixed inections
Term
how can using more than one antibiotic reduce resistance
Definition
probability of resistance spontaneously forming to two drugs is equal to the product of both probabilities alone
Term
what are examples of conditions we treat with combinations of drugs to decrease resistance (2)
Definition
TB, HIV
Term
why do you need more than one antibiotic for mixed infections (2)
Definition
cover aerobic and anaerobic
cover gram negative and positive
lower doses and decrease toxicity
Term
what is the problem with long term antibiotic therapy
Definition
increases risk for side effects
Term
what are the two types of inappropirate antibiotic use
Definition
error of omossion: treatment needed isnt given

error of comission: treatment is given but is inawequate or inappropirate (physician error)
Term
what are 5 signs of infections (5)
Definition
fever > 98.6 oral
increased WBC 4000-10000 cells/mm3
increased band neutrophils
pain
inflammation
