Surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth is a frequent intervention, usually accompanied by unpleasant sequelae (pain, swelling and trismus) in the postoperative period, sometimes even with possibly serious complications (dry socket/alveolar osteitis and postoperative infection at the surgical site - SSI). It is therefore advisable to use various medications and procedures to prevent or alleviate the occurrence of these sequelae and complications. Accordingly, there is a debate in the literature on the expedience of perioperative (prophylactic) use of antibiotics. It is interesting that numerous articles recommending perioperative (prophylactic) antibiotic use to patients undergoing the impacted mandibular third molar surgery may be found, as well as those providing arguments for the disagreement with such an approach, considering that its benefits do not outweigh the risks of adverse side effects, especially due to growing resistance of microorganisms towards antibiotics, which is a possible serious threat to global health. Concerning the perioperative (prophylactic) use of antibiotics for this indication, consensus has not yet been reached, and neither of the views has been verified by convincing scientific evidence. Having the aforementioned dilemma in mind, the main endpoint of the study was to determine the validity of perioperative (prophylactic) use of antibiotics as to alleviate customary sequelae and possible complications after surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars and, at the same time, the effectiveness of newer antibiotics (moxifloxacin and cefixime) when used for this purpose. Moreover, microbiological investigations of susceptibility of the isolated microorganisms to antibiotics used in this research were performed, which could verify the clinically obtained results. With this in mind, two major contributions, based on scientifically verified results, could be expected from the research: (1) confirmation or refuting the validity of perioperative (prophylactic) antibiotic use to control sequelae or complications that could follow the impacted mandibular third molar surgery; and (2) confirmation of the efficacy of fluoroquinolones (moxifloxacin) and cephalosporins (cefixime) in controlling odontogenic infections.
Ceftazidime avitbatan sodium is a broad-spectrum antibiotic with an antimicrobial spectrum covering resistant gram-negative bacteria. Its use in pediatric intensive care for severe infections is not unusual. Pathophysiological changes in severe sepsis can lead to significant changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics during continuous renal replacement therapy.This research aims to study change of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic in severe infection children with extracorporeal life support, thus improve the treatment of severe sepsis and sepsis shock.
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat in modern medicine. Overuse of antibiotics is an important driver of antibiotic resistance. However, some authors have shown that up to 50% of antibiotic treatments in critically ill patients are inappropriate, mostly because they are used in patients with non-bacterial infections. In order to improve antibiotic use, several antibiotic stewardship programs have been implemented worldwide. However, only few of them have taken into account the determinants of prescribing behaviors. Yet, these determinants have been shown to play a role among general practitioners of hospital doctors. Nevertheless, none of these factors have been studied among intensivists. The current project represent phase 1 of the study : construction and validation of a questionnaire.
Staphyloccous aureus and coagulase negative staphylocci are responsible of a large marjority of PJI. Regarding the high rate of methicillin resistance, current guidelines recommend the use of a glycopeptide, and most frequently vancomycin, as the anti-gram positive agent in empirical therapy, while awaiting the microbiological results. Vancomycin is not considered as a safe antibiotic, and daptomycin is frequently an alternative option. Ceftaroline and ceftobiprole are the only betalactam active on methicillin-resistant staphylococci. As some data report a synergistic activity with daptomycin, they could be an option in pandrug-resistant staphylococci BJI, but their use if off label in this indication.
Antibiotics are medicines used to avoid and treat bacterial infections. Antibiotic resistance is increasing to dangerous level globally.
Empirical antibiotic therapy has been known to reduce the mortality and morbidity rate in neutropenic fever. Until now, ceftazidime was the first line choice of neutropenic fever. However, resistance against ceftazidime has been reported. Several countries have reported cefepime in reducing fever and shorten the length of hospitalization better than ceftazidime. This study is aimed to compare the effectivity of ceftazidime and cefepime to reduce fever and to increase the absolute neutrophils count (ANC) in the first 72 hours.
Cephamycin related to 2nd generation cephalosporins, the use of cefoxitin has long been limited to antibiotic prophylaxis. Because of its spectrum (sensitive staphylococci, enterobacteria including ESBL, streptococci, anaerobes), its stability and its low cost, it could be useful in curative bone and joint infections, especially in case of infection polymicrobial disease in patients for whom antibiotic alternative per os is limited.
