Q

goal for time dependent drug dosing

A

time should be > MIC for 50-75% of dosing intervalEXCEPTION: Carbapenem may be 25-50% of dose interval because of rapid tidal activity

Q

steps to avoid antimicrobial resistance

A

3 D’s1. de-escalate–don’t use Ab if you don’t have to2. design–make proper dosing regimes3. decontaminate–proper environmental safety and avoid exposure risks

Q

general ways microbial resistance occurs within the bacT

A

inherent vs acquiredchromosomal mutations or transfer of genetic material outside of the chromosome( plasmid, bacteriophage-mediated)mechanisms:1. transposons– resistant genes that move back and forth btwn chromosome and plasmid2. conjugation–sexual transmission btwn bacT3. transduction–specific receptor transfers information via bacteriophage4. transformation–(human) naked DNA from previously lysed cell enters another bacT
