what MDRO does clindamycin have coverage against? community or hospital acquired?
MRSA
community
what two organisms does clindamycin mainly provide coverage against?
anaerobes
gram-positives
when do you use the D-test? what does it test for?
when using clindamycin for MRSA
it tests for inducible resistance
when performing the D-test if it is sensitive to clindamycin, but resistant to _________ additional screening should be done to to test for inducible resistance
erythromycin
how do you interpret to D-test?
A “D” shaped zone of inhibition will occur around erythromycin on the dish = positive result
AVOID clindamycin if the D-test is positive (especially in serious infections)
