Molecular And Physicochemical Studies Of Mrsa Resistant To Antibiotics: A Known Beyond, Himanshu Bhogekar, Ritesh P. Bhole, Pramod B. Khedekar, Rupesh V. Chikhale
Palestinian Medical and Pharmaceutical Journal
As we see in the community, environment, and daily life, bacterial, microbial, and viral infection creates the severe problem. The medical field is continuously worried about the treatment of infections caused by the microorganism. Day by day, the microorganism in nature becomes stronger and gains more susceptibility to major infections. The researcher continuously works on the development of new antibiotic to break infectivity of the microorganism. But bacteria have the characteristic to adapt in a new environment by generating resistance. Many antibiotics since the discovery of penicillin work on the effects of bacteria for a short duration of time, and …
Qualitative Evaluation Of Antibiotics Use With Gyssens Method In Sepsis Patients At Fatmawati Central General Hospital Jakarta, Mas Masyrifah, Retnosari Andrajati, Linda Triana Yudhorini
Qualitative Evaluation Of Antibiotics Use With Gyssens Method In Sepsis Patients At Fatmawati Central General Hospital Jakarta, Mas Masyrifah, Retnosari Andrajati, Linda Triana Yudhorini
Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research
Sepsis still becomes a major health problem worldwide, with a fairly high mortality rate ranging from 20 to 50%. Antibiotic therapy with rational use can reduce the mortality rate. In contrast, the irrational use of antibiotic therapy will increase the occurrence of resistance, which impacts the increase of morbidity, mortality, and health costs. The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality in the use of antibiotics using the Gyssens method in patients with sepsis. This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional method conducted at Fatmawati Central General Hospital Jakarta from January to December 2020. The research …
Special Considerations In Pediatric Burn Patients Regarding Drug Dosage And Administration, Kelsey Lindsley, Maureen Moynihan, Angela Chu, Kristen Yaeger, Karen L. Kier
Special Considerations In Pediatric Burn Patients Regarding Drug Dosage And Administration, Kelsey Lindsley, Maureen Moynihan, Angela Chu, Kristen Yaeger, Karen L. Kier
Pharmacy and Wellness Review
Pediatric burn patients are a high-risk patient population to treat. These patients have altered physiologic function as a result of the burn injury, in addition to their smaller size and developing bodies. This creates unique challenges during treatment. Accommodations for these patients are made through unique drug dosages and routes of administration. When treating pediatric burn patients, properly assessing and treating pain promptly and effectively is of utmost importance. Nurses who utilize accurate and appropriate pain assessment scales will provide the best treatment of pain. Proper assessment allows the patient to receive the correct analgesic regime, ensuring a faster and …

Silver Nanoparticles And Drug Resistant Bacteria, Aliza Eisig
Silver Nanoparticles And Drug Resistant Bacteria, Aliza Eisig
The Science Journal of the Lander College of Arts and Sciences
The scientist who discovered penicillin and its use as an antibiotic, Alexander Fleming, also raised concerns about bacterial resistance. As he predicted, in the twenty first century, the overwhelming use of antibiotics has led to both drug- and multi-drug resistant bacteria. This paper attempts to investigate the antibacterial potential of silver nanoparticles against drug resistant bacteria. By using Touro's online library database, the efficacy of silver nanoparticles as a potential antibacterial agent was comprehensively researched. Using transmission electron microscopy and the disk diffusion method, silver nanoparticles have been found to exert bactericidal effects by adsorbing to the cell surface and …
