UTIs Empiric Treatment • Uncomplicated: • Check antiobiograms for resistance patterns • In Seattle: TMP-SMX = ciprofloxacin BUT nitrofurantoin is better than all! • Duration: 3-5d (5d for nitrofurantoin) • Complicated: • Cipro or TMP-SMX if mild to moderate illness • Pip/tazo, cefepime, ceftazidime, carbapenem for severe illness • Duration: 7-14 days in general (3-5 days after defervescence) • Pyelonephritis: • Ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, pip/tazo • Duration: 48hrs IV or until afebrile, then complete total 14d course

Aureus, coag negative staph, strep, enterococcus, pseudomonas, anaerobes • Diagnosis: • Blood culture, bone biopsy culture; wound culture is generally not helpful
Osteomyelitis • Chronic treatment: based on culture results • Empiric treatment for acute: need to cover anaerobes, MRSA, pseudomonas • Ampicillin/sulbactam OR pip/tazo OR carbopenem OR ceftriaxone • AND Vancomycin • Duration: • Acute: 4-6 weeks abx (usually minimum 2 weeks IV) • Chronic: 2-6 weeks IV abx then usually addition 6 weeks with oral therapy (until ESR and CPR normalize)
