4 Does acute bronchitis need antibiotic treatment? 1.Yes 2.No 3.Not sure Acute Bronchitis Acute bronchitis is a disease characterized by inflammation of the large airways within the lung accompanied by a cough lasting from 1 to 3 weeks. without the presence of pneumonia as confirmed by the absence of an infiltrate on chest radiograph Viral infections account for an estimated 85% to 95%of acute bronchitis cases with bacterial causesbeing more common in patients with chronic health problems. Bacterial pathogens involved are those that cause community-acquired pneumonia such as Mycoplasma pneumonia, Streptococcus pneumonia, Haemophilus influenza, Moraxella catarrhalis, and Bordetella pertussis. J Pharm Pract Dec;25(6): Benefit Antibiotics for acute bronchitis reduction in cough duration (small benefit ) 1 reduction in days feeling ill and a reduction in days with limited activity There was no significant difference in presence of productive cough at follow-up or mean duration of cough. 2 Risk adverse effects resistance cost 1.

5 Acute Bronchitis Therapy Symptomatic treatment A majority of systematic reviews have found no benefit from using antibiotics with the exception of a modest reduction in duration of symptoms. Antimicrobial therapy should be reserved for those cases where a pathogen is isolated or in high-risk patients presenting with symptoms of influenza infection during influenza season.

8 Retrospective evaluation of data collected during 24 months from patients hospitalized in a tertiary medical center. The analysis included 36 patients. VPA mean +/-SEM plasma concentration decreased from of /-4.5 microg/ml to 9.9 +/- 2.1 microg/ml (P <.001) following meropenem administration. After discontinuation of meropenem, VPA plasma concentrations remained low for 7 days and then gradually increased after 8 to 14 days, reaching values comparable to those before meropeneminitiation. Different daily VPA doses showed a similar pattern of decreased VPA concentrations. In conclusion, the interaction between meropenem and VPA causes a significant decrease in VPA plasma concentration, apparently within 24 hours. As the therapeutic effects of VPA are plasma concentration dependent, the data suggest that these drugs should not be administered concomitantly. J Clin Pharmacol. 2009;49: Singh N et al.

Curr Opin Pulm Med May;2(3): Delayed resolution of pneumonia. When is slow healing too slow? Slowly resolving or nonresolvingpneumoniais a clinical challenge, but we believe it can be dealt with in a rational and decisive manner. The following risk factors have been established for delayed radiographic resolution ofpneumoniaand should be considered in patient evaluation: Coexisting medical conditions History of smoking, Advanced age, Multilobarinvolvement, Persistent fever or leukocytosis. Diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, renalfailure, and alcohol abuse can impair immune function, which slows normal clearing of infiltrates. Common and uncommon infectious agents, conditions that mimicpneumonia(eg, a neoplasm, congestiveheart failure), and pulmonary complications (eg, abscess) can also result in delayed resolution. Postgrad Med Jan;99(1):151-4, radiographic improvement often lags behind clinical parameters, especially in the elderly and in individuals with coexisting disease (e.g., chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2005;171: Jacquez, John. 1979; Respiratory Physiology.

11 de-escalate antimicrobial therapy In an attempt to minimize mortality, patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia, including VAP, typically receive as empiric therapy a threedrug regimen that provides coverage against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(mrsa) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(p. aeruginosa). Guidelines of the American Thoracic Society and Infectious Diseases Society of America for managing hospital-acquired, ventilator-associated, and healthcare-associated pneumonia suggest that antimicrobial therapy may be de-escalated by discontinuing coverage for MRSA and P. aeruginosa in patients with clinical improvement who were not receiving antibiotics when cultures were obtained if sputum cultures are negative for these pathogens.

13 Take home message The Pharmacist's Role in ASPs Noninfectious syndromes that mimic infections Gouty arthritis, Drug fever Optimize antimicrobial usage: Appropriate Choice, Route, Dosage, Duration To improve efficacy, minimize drug-related adverse events, reduce treatment-related costs, and limit the potential for emergence of antimicrobial resistance Practitioners may be more receptive to the stewardship program when suggestions are not only limited to a reduction of antibiotic usage but are also focused on optimal patient care. In this era of accountability and antibiotic resistant `superbugs, there is no room for complacency in the use of antimicrobials and we can no longer afford to shy away from the responsibility of ensuring responsible antimicrobial prescribing.
