Q

presentation of herpes zoster opthalmicus?

A

asymetric periorbital vesicular rash, viral prodrome + signifcant pain. vesicular lesion on tip of nose indicates opthalamic division of trigimneral nerve invovlement. Phtophobia indicates corneal involvment that warrants referal to opthamologist. Tx with oral agents, valcyvlori, famciclovir overal acyclovir as acylcovir poorly absorbed and must be given 5x daily. if immunocompromised, IV acyclovir is generally used.

Q

For inpatient CAP, when do you add MRSA or pseudomonas coverage?

A

prior respiratory isolation of MRSA - add MRSA coverage, de-escalate if culture/PCR negative.

prior respiratory isolation of pseudomonas - add Psuedo coverage, de-escalate if culture negative.

Recent hospitalization and IV abx for MRSA - withhold MRSA coverage unless culture results positive or PCR positive. If severe pneumonia, add MRSA coverage empirically.

Recent hospitalization and IV abx for Pseudomonas - withhold pseudomonas coverage unless culture results positive. If severe pneumonia, add pseudomonas coverage emprically.

  • Test with either urea breath or fecal antigen test.
  • Asymptomatic infections do not need to be treated.
  • Patients with active duodenal or gastric ulcers should be treated if they are infected.
  • positive serology indicates past or present infection.

  • Clarithromycin triple therapy (proton pump inhibitor [PPI] + clarithromycin + amoxicillin or metronidazole) can be used in regions where H. pylori clarithromycin resistance is known to be <15% and in patients with no previous history of macrolide exposure for 14 days
  • Levofloxacin + PPI+ amoxicillin for 10-14 days
  • FQ sequential therapy of PPI + amoxicillin 5-7 days followed by PPI, FQ, and nitroimdazole for 5-7 days.
