Basic principles Review of antibiotic choices Presentation of most recent data on monotherapy Conclusions OUTLINE
MORTALITY OF INTRA-ABDOMINAL INFECTIONS Mortality % Diffuse Suppurative Peritonitis Combined Complicated Infection Localized Peritonitis Localized Abscess
broad spectrum EMPIRIC antibiotic therapy TREATMENT OF INTRA-ABDOMINAL INFECTIONS Surgical drainage and correction of pathology
A single antibiotic or a combination of antibiotics providing BROAD SPECTRUM coverage against all possible pathogens. ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY OF SURGICAL INFECTIONS Empiric Antibiotic Therapy: Definitive Antibiotic Therapy: Antibiotic administration based on specific culture and sensitivity results.
Use an antibiotic or combination of antibiotics that provides broad spectrum activity to cover all suspected PATHOGENS. HOW DOES ONE PICK APPROPRIATEEMPIRIC ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY ?
