האם יש קשר בין טיפולי שיניים וזיהומים במפרקים אורתופדיים מלאכותיים? האם יש צורך במתן אנטיביוטיקה לפני טיפולי שיניים בחולים שעברו השתלת מפרק אורתופדי? מהם המינונים המומלצים? מהן ההמלצות למטופל?
The document summarizes a study that assessed parents' knowledge of factors influencing oral hygiene practices in pediatric patients. A questionnaire was administered to parents to obtain data on their oral health habits, beliefs, knowledge of primary dentition and tooth shedding. Most parents changed toothbrushes every 6 months but only some visited dentists annually. While most agreed treatment is important, some declined due to cost or time constraints. The study concluded parental education plays a major role in children's oral health, and awareness among parents needs improving to better care for children's teeth.

This research is conducted by Munir Gomaa in his third and fourth years of dental school and is titled "Influence of Irrational Health Beliefs in Adults on Dental-Related Perceptions, Practices, and Diseases in Adult and Pediatric Patients." The research examines how, as an example, irrational fears related to going to a dentist might contribute to that patient's overall oral health.
This document discusses antibiotic prophylaxis for clients with underlying heart conditions undergoing dental procedures. It outlines guidelines for who should receive premedication to reduce the risk of infective endocarditis, such as those with prosthetic heart valves or a history of endocarditis. While some studies question how effective universal prophylaxis is, the consensus is that invasive dental work poses a risk for susceptible clients and precautions are warranted. Dentists must follow the most up to date standards to provide safe, high quality care for these higher risk individuals.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Infective endocarditis is a microbial infection of the heart valves or endocardium. It is caused by bacteria, usually streptococci or staphylococci, entering the bloodstream and colonizing injured heart valves or endothelium. Predisposing conditions include rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, prosthetic heart valves, and intravenous drug use. Symptoms include fever, chills, sweats, and heart murmur. Diagnosis involves blood cultures, echocardiography, and clinical criteria. Treatment consists of intravenous antibiotics for 4-6 weeks along with surgery if needed to repair or replace damaged valves. Prophylactic antibiotics are recommended for high risk patients before certain medical procedures to prevent

The document summarizes changes over time to guidelines from the American Heart Association regarding antibiotic prophylaxis for infective endocarditis. The key changes are: (1) prophylaxis is now only recommended for those cardiac conditions with the most serious outcomes from IE, (2) prophylaxis is recommended for almost all dental procedures for at-risk individuals, and (3) timing of antibiotics is 30-60 minutes before a procedure rather than both before and after. Prophylaxis is no longer routinely recommended for other conditions, gastrointestinal/genitourinary procedures, or daily activities that may cause minor bacteremia, as the risks of antibiotics outweigh the small potential benefits of prevention in those cases.
Antibiotic prophylaxis for Infective Endocarditis: Deepak Chand, BPKIHS, NepalDeep Chand
This document discusses infective endocarditis, which is an infection of the inner lining of the heart chambers and heart valves. It can occur when bacteria or fungi enter the bloodstream and attach to damaged surfaces in the heart.
The document outlines various risk factors for developing infective endocarditis, including congenital heart defects, rheumatic heart disease, prosthetic heart valves, and dental procedures that cause bleeding like tooth extractions. It provides guidelines on antibiotic prophylaxis for these high-risk patients, including recommended antibiotics (amoxicillin, clindamycin, vancomycin), dosages for adults and children, and timing of administration before certain dental procedures.
The guidelines were last updated in 2007
This document outlines the use of antibiotics in surgery. It discusses the classification of antibiotics and their uses for prophylaxis and therapeutic purposes. For prophylaxis, a single preoperative dose is usually sufficient to prevent infection if administered within 1 hour before incision. Therapeutic antibiotics require culture and sensitivity testing to determine the appropriate treatment. Factors like infection severity, pathogen type, and patient status help determine the antibiotic regimen. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics can lead to increased resistance.
Antibiotic prophylaxis aims to prevent surgical site infections by administering antibiotics before and during surgery to eliminate bacteria and create an unfavorable environment for infection. The risk of surgical site infection depends on factors like the type of surgery (clean vs. contaminated), insertion of implants, duration of surgery, and patient comorbidities. Common pathogens include Staphylococcus aureus and streptococci for skin wounds, and oral anaerobes for head/neck surgery. Guidelines recommend evaluating risks and benefits of prophylaxis as well as considering antibiotic susceptibility of likely contaminants when determining appropriate prophylactic regimens.
2015 ESC Guidelines on Infective Endocarditis ppt. by Dr Abhishek Rathore MDdrabhishekbabbu
The document summarizes guidelines for the management of infective endocarditis (IE). It recommends an endocarditis team approach in a reference center for complicated IE cases. It emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis, antibiotic therapy, and consideration of early surgery. It also discusses new recommendations for specific IE situations, antibiotic prophylaxis, surgical management, and the roles of imaging and multidisciplinary care in IE management.
1. Infective endocarditis is an infection of the heart valves or endocardium. It can affect native or prosthetic valves.
2. Risk factors include artificial heart valves, congenital heart defects, and intravenous drug use. Common causative organisms are staphylococci and streptococci.
3. Symptoms include fever, chills, weight loss, and heart failure. Signs include heart murmurs, petechiae, splinter hemorrhages, and Osler's nodes. Diagnosis involves blood cultures and echocardiography. Treatment is intravenous antibiotics for 4-6 weeks along with possible surgery.
Infective endocarditis is a serious infection of the heart valves, usually caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream and adhering to previously damaged valves. It can occur in patients with normal or abnormal heart anatomy. Viridans streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus are common causes. It may present with nonspecific symptoms like fever or with signs of complications. Diagnosis involves blood cultures, echocardiogram, and applying the Duke criteria. Treatment is antibiotics with possible surgery. Prevention focuses on antibiotic prophylaxis before procedures for high-risk patients.
Infective endocarditis is a microbial infection of the heart valves or endocardium. It typically involves the valves and can be caused by many pathogens. The most common causes are streptococci, staphylococci, and enterococci. Untreated infective endocarditis has a high fatality rate. The pathogenesis involves endothelial damage, platelet-fibrin deposition forming nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE), and microbial colonization of the NBTE resulting in bacterial vegetations. Local effects include valvular damage, abscesses, fistulae, and conduction abnormalities. Distant effects occur via septic emboli that can lodge in organs like the brain, lungs,

Examination revealed signs of infective endocarditis including a heart murmur, splenomegaly, splinter hemorrhages and skin lesions. Blood cultures and echocardiography were performed to diagnose infective endocarditis and determine the causative organism and extent of valve involvement. The document discusses the pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines for infective endocarditis based on the infecting organism and type of valve affected.
Adaptation and Implementation of Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Surgery in King Saud University Hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
The document provides guidelines for the management of infective endocarditis from the European Society of Cardiology. It discusses definitions of infective endocarditis, recommendations for antibiotic prophylaxis, the role of echocardiography in diagnosis, etiologic agents, predictors of poor outcome, surgical indications, and treatment of various microorganisms including streptococci, staphylococci, enterococci, and culture-negative cases. It also addresses management considerations for infective endocarditis in specific patient populations such as those with prosthetic valves, congenital heart disease, or pregnancy.
This document discusses surgical prophylaxis and the use of antibiotics before and after surgery. It begins with definitions of key terms like antibiotic, prophylaxis, and pre/postsurgical therapy. It then covers topics like risk factors for surgical infections, classification of surgical wounds, guidelines for antibiotic selection, timing and dosing. Common antibiotics are listed along with their mechanisms of action, side effects and appropriate uses. The goals of prophylaxis are to reduce surgical site infections while minimizing antibiotic side effects and resistance. Proper antibiotic usage and completion of treatment courses can help address the growing problem of antibiotic resistance.
- Antibiotics are used in dentistry for three main purposes: as adjuncts to treat oral infections, to prevent local infections from dental procedures, and to prevent oral bacteria from spreading to susceptible sites.
- For high and moderate risk patients, antibiotics are recommended before certain invasive procedures like extractions but not for other procedures like fillings.
- Common antibiotics used include penicillin, amoxicillin, and clindamycin which are effective against the streptococcus and anaerobic bacteria usually causing dental infections. Selection depends on factors like allergies and whether only anaerobic infections are suspected.
The document summarizes guidelines from various organizations on prophylaxis for infective endocarditis. The guidelines have been revised in recent years based on a lack of evidence that antibiotic prophylaxis is effective. Guidelines no longer routinely recommend prophylaxis for dental or other invasive procedures, but may suggest it for highest risk patients. Factors leading to revised guidelines include no demonstrated association between procedures and endocarditis; natural bacteraemia exceeding that from procedures; and risk of antibiotic side effects outweighing unclear benefits.
This document discusses the biology of periodontal diseases. It defines periodontal disease as an inflammatory disease of the supporting tissues of the teeth caused by bacteria. Gingivitis is inflammation of the gingiva without bone/attachment loss, while periodontitis involves bone/attachment loss. Risk factors include local factors like plaque and calculus, environmental factors like smoking, and systemic factors like age, gender and diabetes. Prevention strategies include mechanical plaque removal, chemotherapeutic agents, scaling and root planing, and supportive periodontal therapy.
The orthodontic patient examination and diagnosis involves interviewing the patient to understand their concerns and dental history. It also includes assessing their medical history to determine if any conditions could impact treatment. Factors like bleeding disorders, diabetes, immunosuppression, and allergies may require special consideration during orthodontic care. A thorough examination provides information needed to develop an appropriate treatment plan.

Antibiotics are commonly prescribed by dentists to treat and prevent infections. The most common antibiotics prescribed are penicillin, erythromycin, and tetracyclines. Penicillin is often the first line treatment and works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall formation. While antibiotics are generally safe and effective, overuse has led to increasing antibiotic resistance, so they should only be used for indicated infections. Dentists carefully consider risks and benefits when determining whether antibiotics are appropriate for a patient's specific condition.
This document discusses improving oral health outcomes through a dental wellness plan approach. It begins by outlining the chronic infectious nature of dental diseases and how current treatment methods do not effectively address the underlying causes. It then proposes a dental wellness plan that would identify high-risk plan members through shared risk assessment, treat the infections causing dental decay through an evidence-based antibacterial coating, and differentiate care levels based on risk status. The goal is to contain costs and improve outcomes by shifting from a surgical response to managing the oral infections driving dental diseases.
This document outlines the European Society of Endodontology's position statement on the use of antibiotics in endodontics. It discusses the indications and contraindications for systemic and topical antibiotics in endodontic treatment. Systemic antibiotics are only recommended as an adjunct in cases of acute apical abscesses with systemic involvement or progressive infections. Topical antibiotics are not recommended for disinfecting root canals or pulp capping. Antibiotic prophylaxis is only suggested for at-risk patients undergoing endodontic surgery or non-surgical root canal treatment.

Dental management of children under chemotherapyRiwa Kobrosli
This document discusses dental management of pediatric patients receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy. It outlines that cancer therapy can cause oral complications and a preventive regimen is necessary. It recommends completing all dental work before therapy starts. During therapy, it advises oral hygiene, managing infections and mucositis, and avoiding dental procedures. Following therapy, it suggests monitoring patients periodically for risks like caries and osteonecrosis. The goal is to educate patients and minimize oral issues through preventive care before, during, and after cancer treatment.
This document discusses supportive periodontal therapy (SPT), which involves maintenance care after initial treatment for periodontal disease. SPT is important for preventing recurrence of the disease and further tooth/bone loss. Long-term studies show that without SPT, periodontal disease often progresses again. The goals of SPT are to maintain periodontal health and reduce future tooth loss through regular cleanings and evaluation. Key aspects of SPT include subgingival plaque removal, risk assessment, and motivating patients to continue proper oral hygiene between visits. SPT has been shown to successfully maintain periodontal health for many years when done correctly.
AAP 2017 CLASSIFICATION OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE PART 1Babu Mitzvah
This document outlines the proceedings of a world workshop on classifying periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions. It discusses the need to update the 1999 classification system to current understanding. The outline covers periodontal health, gingival diseases, periodontitis, peri-implant diseases and key changes. Specifically, it defines periodontal health as having less than 10% bleeding sites and no probing depths over 3mm. It also discusses categories for periodontal health with an intact versus reduced periodontium, such as for successfully treated periodontitis patients.
3. risk assessment and medical historyLama K Banna
This document discusses the importance of the connection between oral and systemic health. It notes that oral health reflects overall health status, and that certain systemic conditions like diabetes can impact oral health. The mouth can also serve as a portal of infection. The document then discusses various occupational health problems faced by dentists, like exposure to infectious diseases, radiation, and musculoskeletal disorders. It emphasizes the importance of infection control practices and protective measures. Finally, the document outlines factors to consider when conducting a medical risk assessment for a dental patient, such as the patient's medical conditions, stability, and cardiopulmonary reserve as well as the proposed dental procedure.
This document summarizes research on dental implants in patients with a history of periodontitis. It finds that while implant survival rates are generally acceptable for both partially and fully edentulous patients with a history of periodontitis, these patients are at greater risk of peri-implantitis than those without periodontitis. The main pathogens associated with both periodontitis and peri-implantitis are similar. History of periodontitis, diabetes, smoking, and poor oral hygiene are identified as risk indicators for peri-implantitis, though more research is still needed to identify true risk factors.
This document outlines a proposed new classification scheme for periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions. It discusses the need to update the 1999 classification scheme and develop a similar scheme for peri-implant diseases to align with current understanding. Key areas covered include definitions of periodontal health, gingivitis, and periodontitis at both the patient and site levels. Factors that determine the development and severity of gingivitis are summarized. Diagnostic criteria for gingivitis and approaches to classifying mild, moderate, and severe cases are discussed. The document also addresses non-dental plaque induced gingival conditions and future research needs.
This document provides an overview of commonly prescribed medications in pediatric dentistry, including antimicrobials, analgesics, and fluorides. It discusses the increased complexity of prescribing medications due to issues like microbial resistance and drug interactions. The document covers characteristics, warnings, precautions and dosages for various categories of medications. It emphasizes the need to adjust dosages for pediatric patients based on their lower body weight compared to adults.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

11. Oral health & orthopedics?
“…The ADA and AAOS do not have a joint
recommendation at this time.
There are differing opinions on the need for
antibiotic prophylaxis.”

13. Oral health & orthopedics?
Dental procedures cause PJI ?
Will Antibiotic Prophylaxis help? Which Antibiotics? How much?

14. Oral health & orthopedics?
Good oral health + Dental procedures cause PJI ?
Do you still need Antibiotic Prophylaxis ?

15. Oral health & orthopedics?
Good oral health and PJI ?
15
16. Oral health & orthopedics?
• Should the orthopedic
surgeon & the dentist
consult each other?
• Should the orthopedic
surgeon talk about oral
health with the patient?
16
17. What’s in consensus?
•1,000,000 total joint
arthroplasties performed
annually
•7 percent are revision
procedures
17
18. What’s in consensus?
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI):
• a severe illness
• painful and discomforting
• damages the quality of life
• might be life-threatening
18
19. What’s in consensus?
• Staphylococcus Epidermidis &
Staphylococcus Aureus are the
common bacteria in PJI
• Staph. family are very rare inside
the mouth
19
20. What’s in consensus?
• Streptococci Viridans is common to
the mouth
(teeth decay, gum diseases)
• A relatively much lower percentage
of PJIs are caused by Streptococci
Viridans
20
21. What’s in consensus?
• Antibiotic prophylaxis is advisable where a risk of severe
infective complications exists.
21
23. What’s in consensus?
• With gum disease, even tooth brushing, eating etc. causes
chronic bacteremia
23
24. What’s in consensus?
• Both orthopedics surgeons and dentists should consider
the possibility of PJI, consult each other and inform
their patients
• There is not enough knowledge up to date
24
26. What’s NOT in consensus?
• ALL patients with prosthetic joints should be considered
candidates for PJI , therefore consider AP when undergoing
dental procedures
• That’s a life-time risk
26
27. What’s NOT in consensus?
• Is the mouth the source for the PJIs reported?
• Are ALL prosthetic joints are prone for PJI after a dental
treatment?
• Is this for life? Is this for each dental procedure?
• Is antibiotic prohylaxis always recommendend before each
dental treatment?
27
28. What’s NOT in consensus?
• Some dental treatments might cause
bacteremia, BUT NOT ALL
• Prosthetic Joint Infections are RARELY
caused by bacterial species common to the
mouth
• Evidence of a relationship between dental
procedures and PJIs is CIRCUMSTANTIAL
28
29. American Dental Association
• ADA + AHA joint paper (2007):
– dentists should reduce AP for prevention of Endocarditis
by 90%
(compared to previous recommendations)
– widespread use of antibiotics = a significant increase of
drug-resistant bacterial infections
29
30. American Dental Association
• ADA + AHA joint paper (2007):
– Daily bacteremia is even caused when brushing, eating
etc.

33. I. High Risk of Prosthetic Joint Infection *
• Immunocompromised / immunosuppressed
• Inflammatory arthropathies (rheumatoid arthritis, SLE etc.)
• Previous PJIs
• less than 2 years after the prosthetic joint replacement
• co-morbidities (e.g.: diabetes, obesity, HIV, smoking,
Malnourishment, Hemophilia, Malignancy etc.)
• poor oral health (e.g.: periodontitis, gingivitis, abscesses,
osteomyelitis etc.)
