Related Diseases

1.	Infection 01/01/2010 - "Since the beginning of the 80s, numerous clinical trials have shown a significant reduction in the incidence of infections in clean-contaminated upper respiratory tract surgery, due to perioperative use of antibiotics; however, there is no consensus about the best antibiotic protocol. " 11/01/1999 - "taking into account the small amount of infection eradication treatments carried out in our country and some characteristics arising from the resistances to some antibiotics, the Spanish Club for the Study of Helicobacter pylori decided to organize a Spanish Consensus Conference to clarify the use of the different infection diagnostic tests, to establish the exact indications of its diagnosis and treatment, to recommend the best treatment guidelines for our country and to promote the use of eradication treatments in adequate indications. " 01/01/2012 - "Beta-lactam antibiotics display time-dependant pharmacodynamics whereby constant antibiotic concentrations rather than high peak concentrations are most likely to result in effective treatment of infections caused by susceptible bacteria. " 04/01/2006 - "Cultures of aspirated joint fluid can be especially helpful for patients who have symptoms suggestive of infection, but their results are best interpreted two weeks after administration of antibiotics has been discontinued. " 04/01/2006 - "Prophylactic antibiotics have helped to reduce significantly the risk of infection; however, clinicians managing these patients should also have a thorough understanding of the risk factors leading to postoperative infections and should apply the most basic surgical principles at all times, to minimize infection rates.

2.	Pneumonia (Pneumonitis) 10/01/2005 - "Beta-lactam and macrolide antibiotics are considered safe in pregnancy and are effective for most community-acquired pneumonia in pregnancy. " 02/01/2003 - "It is now commonly accepted that the incidence of pneumonia is reduced,however, the concept of using topical antibiotics has its inherent limitations and the best results have been obtained by combination with a short course of intravenous antibiotics. " 04/01/2000 - "Most reports found a significant reduction in pneumonitis when patients received prolonged prophylactic antibiotics. " 02/01/1986 - "Interstitial electrophoresis of antibiotics included in the complex of curative measures was shown to be highly effective for the treatment of chronic pneumonia. " 09/01/2001 - "Although the advent of broad-spectrum antibiotics has markedly improved the maternal outcomes of pneumonia complicating pregnancy, pneumonia remains a significant condition that may complicate pregnancy. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
3.	Abscess 01/01/2013 - "Although most breast abscesses can be treated with the current first-line treatment of antibiotics by needle aspiration, the therapeutic duration is lengthy and recurrences often occur. " 09/01/2001 - "Most patients will be cured without operation by antibiotics and if necessary, by additional percutaneous drainage where an abscess has formed." 01/01/1998 - "The diagnosis of primary pyogenic abscess requires a high index of suspicion and the best treatment is early operative drainage and administration of systemic antibiotics." 06/01/1991 - "We conclude that the diagnosis of renal abscesses is greatly facilitated by ultrasonography and CT and that most patients can be cured without operation by antibiotics and, if necessary, by additional percutaneous drainage." 01/01/1998 - "Percutaneous drainage of the abscess, combined with antibiotics provided marked improvement. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
4.	Sepsis (Septicemia) 06/01/1984 - "A number of appropriate antibiotics and antibiotic combinations are available for intraabdominal sepsis, but most data still favor combinations of an antiaerobic drug, most often an aminoglycoside, and an antianaerobic drug--and possibly a third agent effective against enterococci." 12/01/1994 - "Overall neonatal sepsis incidence changed very little, but there was a marked decrease in very early onset sepsis in 1988 to 1992 especially in very low birth weight (< 1500 g) infants, possibly attributable to increased use of prenatal antibiotics. " 11/01/2012 - "Because sepsis occurred significantly more often in the placebo arm versus the active-treatment arm, the role of antibiotics in causing remission cannot be discounted (6.8% vs 0%; P < .05). " 10/01/2008 - "Two patients developed sepsis with good outcome with intravenous antibiotics treatment. " 05/01/2006 - "Overall, there was a significant improvement in doctors' understanding of sepsis and knowledge of the source of information that they utilized to select the antibiotic of choice, although the majority did not acknowledge the price difference between intravenous and oral forms of antibiotics."

5.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 09/01/1982 - "Primary repair of concomitant injuries, use of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics, and rigid immobilization for a short period followed by active mobilization will yield the best results." 02/01/1989 - "The basic principles of the pathology, physiology, diagnosis, and management of nonpenetrating chest trauma evolved to a significant degree before World War II. The advances in the past 40 years include more frequent use of endotracheal intubation, improved ventilatory assistance, better control of blood volume, antibiotics, the clinical application of blood-gas studies, diagnostic imaging, and specialized nursing and monitoring in intensive care units. " 02/01/2009 - "She has been successfully treated with antibiotics, i.v. biophosphonates and intensive local wound care. " 02/01/2005 - "Despite this lack of evidence, antibiotics are frequently a feature of the management of chronic wounds and these patients receive significantly more antibiotic prescriptions (both systemic and topical) than age and sex-matched patients. " 12/01/1985 - "Antimicrobial prophylaxis should be restricted to high-risk patients and the antibiotics used must be effective against exogenic wound contaminants."
