22 Gentamicin in S. aureus IE? Ann Intern Med Oct;97(4): Combination antimicrobial therapy for Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis in patients addicted to parenteral drugs and in nonaddicts: A prospective study. Korzeniowski O, Sande MA. Single (nafcillin for 6 weeks) and combined (nafcillin for 6 weeks plus gentamicin for 2 weeks) drug regimens were compared in two separate multicenter prospective randomized trials. 48 parenteral drug addicts and 30 nonaddicts with clinically and bacteriologically documented Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis were studied. In the addicts, combined therapy effected a more rapid mean clinical response (defervescence and normalization of leukocyte count) and a reduced duration of bacteremia in patients with right-sided endocarditis. In the nonaddicts, combined therapy effected more rapid clearance of bacteremia, but was associated with a higher incidence of azotemia. The addition of gentamicin did not alter morbidity or mortality in either group.

31 Summary 1. Identify the causative microorganism 2. Use bactericidal antibiotics in an appropriate concentration as i.v. infusion 3. Treat patients generally in the hospital, even eligible candidates should be treated at least two weeks before submitted to your OPAT program 4. Cooperate with an ID specialist and/or a clinical microbiologist 5. Refer to the guidelines!
