Rational use of antibiotics, part of our work & recommendations in antibiotic stewardships stewardship

2. Entrance
โข I am going to tell you different points that may control
antibiotic use, decrease their side effect & increase their
benefit,,, you wont see scientific updates in this presentation
but rather something you may all know
โข I need your help, cooperation and insistence to achieve the
best goal to us:
Improve Patient Health Care
Handle Antibiotics With Care
3. Antibiotic resistance
โข Antibiotic resistance is worldwide problem. New strains of
resistant bacteria can cross international boundaries and
spread between continents with ease and remarkable speed.
โWorld health leaders have described antibiotic resistant
organism as nightmare bacteria that pose a catastrophic
threat to people in every country in the worldโ
โข Sure now we have another threat called COVID-19 but this
never cancel the catastrophe of antibiotic resistance
4. Antibiotic resistance
โข Giuliano C. et al. 2019, stated that approximately 50% of
hospitalized patients receive at least one antibiotic during their
inpatient stay, 30% of which includes broad-spectrum
antibiotics. Misuse of antibiotic was reported to be as high as
50% (same ref).
โข Each year in US misuse of antibiotic lead to increased adverse
effects, secondary infections, drug interactions, additional
costs, prolonged lengths of stay, and hospital readmissions.
Furthermore, bacterial resistance will develop, that finally
leads to treatment failure
6. So the problem is: Antimicrobial Prescribing
Facts, the 30% Rule
โข 30% of all hospitalized inpatients at any given time receive
antibiotics
โข Over 30% of antibiotics are prescribed inappropriately in the
community
โข Up to 30% of all surgical prophylaxis is inappropriate
โข 30% of hospital pharmacy costs are due to antimicrobial use
โข 10-30% of pharmacy costs can be saved by antimicrobial
stewardship programs
7. Culture & sensitivity test
โข they are used to determine which specific antibiotics bacteria
is sensitive to. Results are commonly reported as the minimal
inhibitory concentration (MIC), a typical results contain a
quantitative result in ยตg/mL and a qualitative interpretation
โข Cultures should be obtained quickly to guide therapy, identify
the offending organism, allow potential de-escalation through
proper treatment, (taking into consideration the importance of
prompt antibiotic administration - The 2016 Surviving Sepsis
Campaign guidelines recommend that antibiotics be
administered within one hour of sepsis diagnosis)
8. Culture & sensitivity test
โข Cultures usual sites including those which are colonized with
bacteria (causes the risk of contamination from normal flora
and may lead to false results like sputum and nasal passages)
or sterile sites (typically include cerebral spinal fluid, blood,
and pericardial fluid)
โข If cultures are drawn after-antibiotic administration, there may
be a decrease in the yielded blood-culture causing increase in
the cost and length of stay for the patient
9. Antibiogram
โข periodic cumulative summary produced from analysis of
antibiotic susceptibilities on bacterial isolates from a particular
hospital in a defined period of time
โข In our work its rather depend on resistant rather than
susceptible culture & sensitivity tests only, recently
โข How calculated

10. Antibiogram, why we need it
โข Support clinicians selecting empiric antibiotic therapy
โข assess & compare local susceptibility/resistance rates
โข track resistance trends over time within an institution at local
level
โข infection-control interventions
14. Antibiotic allergy skin test
โข Skin allergy test as important as you can imagine, its benefit to
avoid antibiotic allergic side effect in their mild- up to risky
form which may be anaphylaxis
โข Its done routinely for penicillins & cephalosporins (Amoxicillin,
Ampicillin, Cefotaxime, Ceftriaxone & Ceftazidime)
โข Its not recommended for Vancomycin, Carbapenems as
Meropenem & Aminoglycosides like Gentamicin & Amikacin to
avoid false results
15. Antibiotic allergy skin test
โข 1st step: dilution
Dissolve vial with distilled water 10ml (cephalosporins) & 5ml
(penicillins)
Withdraw 10 unit utilizing insulin syringe, further dilution with 90
units distilled water (complete volume to 1ml again)
โข 2nd step: injection & monitoring
Inject 10 units in the forearm intradermal, encircle with pen, wait
for 15-30 min & monitor injection area for any signs of allergic
reaction
