12020449氣喘病患的氣管解剖構造_為何需要吃類固醇

化膿性蜂窩性組織炎抗生素選擇
TREATMENT
Terms and General Principles
• Classification (Based on 2014 IDSA Guidelines for Diagnosis and Management of Skin and Soft Tissue Infections)[1]
• For infection in which culture information is derived, use results to help guide therapy.
• Purulent: cellulitis associated with abscess, carbuncle, furuncle.
o Severe infection:
Patients who have failed I&D plus oral antibiotics
Presence of SIRS (≥ 2 of the following: T > 38°C, P > 90, RR > 24, WBC < 4,000 cells/υL or > 12,000 cells/υL)
Immunocompromised patients
o Moderate infection:
Purulent infection with signs of systemic inflammation
o Mild infection:
Purulent infection, requires I&D (without the above)
• Non-purulent: cellulitis, necrotizing fasciitis, erysipelas.
o Severe infection:
Failed oral antibiotics
Presence of SIRS (≥ 2 of the following: T > 38°C, P > 90, RR > 24, WBC < 4,000 cells/υL or > 12,000 cells/υL)
Immunocompromised patients
Presence of skin sloughing or bullae
Hypotension
End organ dysfunction
o Moderate infection:
Typical cellulitis or erysipelas + systemic signs of infection
o Mild infection:
Typical cellulitis or erysipelas
No evidence of purulence
Non-purulent Infections
• Duration of therapy is typically 5 -10 days depending on response
• Severe:
o Assess for potential necrotizing infection.
Emergent surgical consultation, consideration for debridement.
o Empiric:
Vancomycin 15 mg IV q 12h IV PLUS piperacillin/tazobacatam 3.375 g IV q 4-6h.
o Microbiology/special associations--pathogen-specific: see specific modules for details.
Necrotizing group A streptococcal or clostridial infection: PCN G + clindamycin
o Also use this combination for streptococcal toxic shock
Vibrio vulnificus: doxycycline + ceftazidime
Aeromonas hydrophila: doxycycline + ciprofloxacin
Polymicrobial: vancomycin + piperacillin/tazobacatam
• Moderate: intravenous therapy
o Adult:
PCN G 2-4 million units IV q 4-6h
Cefazolin 1-2 g IV q 8h
Nafcillin 1-2 g IV q 4-6h
Ceftriaxone 1-2 g IV q 24h
Clindamycin 600-900 mg IV q 8h
o Alternatives: for severe beta-lactam allergy
Vancomycin
Clindamycin (note: resistance < 1% in streptococci, may be higher in Asia)
Linezolid
Tedizolid
Daptomycin
Telavancin
Dalbavancin
Ortavancin
o Pediatric
PCN G 60-100,000 units/kg IV q 6h
Clindamycin 10-13 mg/kg IV q 8 h
Nafcillin 50 mg/kg IV q 6h
Cefazolin 33 mg/kg IV q 8h
• Mild: oral therapy
o Adult:
PCN Vk 250-500 mg PO four times daily
o Amoxicillin often preferred due to better bioavailability: 250-500 mg PO three times daily
Cephalexin 500 mg PO four times daily
Dicloxacillin 500 mg PO four times daily
Clindamycin 300-540 mg PO four times daily
o Pediatric
Amoxicillin 25-50 mg/kg/d divided twice or thrice daily doses (500 mg max per dose)
Cephalexin 50 mg/kg/day PO divided four times daily
Dicloxacillin 25-50 mg/kg/day PO divided four times daily
Clindamycin 25-30 mg/kg/day PO divided three times daily
Purulent Infections
• All infections, perform thorough I&D.
• Severe: obtain culture from I&D; use IV abx--may convert to oral when stable/improved.
o Adult
Empiric: to cover MRSA
o Vancomycin 15 mg/kg IV q 12h
o Linezolid 600 mg every 12h IV
o Daptomycin 6-8 mg/kg IV q 24h
o Telavancin 10 mg/kg IV once daily (infuse over 1 hr)
o Ceftaroline 600 mg IV q 8-12h (consider only if other options not available)
o Clindamycin: Not longer an option in most places due to increased resistance among MRSA and MSSA isolates (can be considered if prevalence of resistance < 10%)
MSSA:
o Nafcillin or oxacillin 2 g IV q4h
o Cefazolin 2g IV q8h
MRSA:
o See empiric selections above
• Pediatric
o Empiric
Vancomycin 40 mg/kg/d in four divided doses
Linezolid 10 mg/kg IV q 12h (children < 12 yrs)
o MSSA:
Nafcillin or oxacillin 100-150 mg/kg/d IV in four divided doses IV
Cefazolin 50 mg/kg/d IV in three divided doses
Clindamycin 25-40 mg/kg/d IV in three divided doses
• Moderate: obtain culture from I&D. May use IV above or oral selection below based on clinical judgement.
o Adult:
Empiric: IV from above or oral selection from below.
o TMP/SMX 1-2 DS tabs PO twice daily
o Doxycycline 100 mg PO twice daily
o MSSA: IV from above or oral from below
Dicloxacillin 500 mg PO four times a day
Cephalexin 500 mg PO four times a day
o MRSA: IV from above or oral below
TMP/SMX 1-2 DS tabs twice daily PO
• Pediatric:
o Empiric: IV from above or oral from below.
TMP/SMX 8-12 mg/kg/d (based on TMP) PO in two divided doses
o MSSA: IV from above or oral from below
Dicloxacillin 25-50 mg/kg/d PO in four divided doses
Cephalexin 25-50 mg/kg/d PO in four divided doses
• MRSA: IV from above or oral from below.
o TMP/SMX 8-12 mg/kg/d (based on TMP) PO in two divided doses
• Mild: no culture required, use oral options from above.
• β-lactam allergy: Vancomycin (above doses)
Adjunctive Therapy
• Erysipelas: consider prednisone 30mg with taper over 8 days to assist with inflammatory reaction (may want to avoid in diabetes).
• For infections of limbs, elevate affected site.
• Treat associated conditions (especially if recurrent infection): Tinea pedis, venous stasis, lymphedema, eczema, trauma sites.
o Dermatophytic infections: topical terbinafine or clotrimazole

Definition
Sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a ventricular rhythm faster than 100 bpm lasting at least 30 seconds or requiring termination earlier due to hemodynamic instability.
