His weakness is now affecting his activities of daily living. He is occasionally short of breath. PMH: COPD, hypertension, BPH, mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation and generalized anxiety disorder. He is a past 2 pack per day smoker, but quit 5 years ago. Medications on admission include: sertraline 100mg po daily, tamsulosin 0.4mg po daily, tiotropium i inhalation daily, and lisinopril 40mg po daily. TP develops a rash when receiving penicillins. On physical exam TP has an extensive systolic ejection murmur. He is afebrile. Labs: Na 143, K 4.2, Cl 102, HCO3 22, BUN 28, Scr 1.43 and glucose 134, Hgb 10.2, Hct 30.8, WBC 12.2 and platelets 220. Three of 3 blood cultures: gram positive cocci in chains. Echo: large vegetation on his mitral valve and an ejection fraction of 56%. His cultures ultimately grow Streptococci mitis (one of the viridans group of Streptococci) that is highly sensitive to penicillin. What is the best therapy for TP? 1. Penicillin G 2 million units every 4 hours for 4 weeks plus gentamicin 1 mg/kg IV q12h for the first 5 days. 2. Cefazolin 1g IV q8h plus gentamicin 1mg/kg IV q12h for 6 weeks. 3. Ceftriaxone 2g IV daily plus gentamicin 1mg/kg IV q12h for 2 weeks. 4. Vancomycin 15mg/kg IV q24h for 2 weeks. 2

3 Reevaluate Case 1-A - ID Question RE1-A DL is a 38 year old male with a history of IV drug use who presents with fever and chills. Blood cultures are drawn and all are positive for Gram positive cocci in chains, ultimately identified ed as Enterococcus faecalis. He is started on ampicillin and gentamicin. In this situation the best reason for using gentamicin is that it: 1. allows for a shortened length of therapy. 2. has a necessary synergistic effect since no single antibiotic is bactericidal against Enterococcus. 3. has activity against Gram negative organisms, which frequently co-infect valves in patients with Enterococcal endocarditis. 4. lessens the bacterial load and quickens the time to defervescence. Case Vignette 1 - ID Question 1-B TP completes his therapy but 6 weeks later he continues to have problems with shortness of breath and further development of heart failure. It is decided ded that he will need a mitral valve replacement. Surgery is scheduled. For TP, undergoing open heart surgery, which is the best recommendation for his perioperative antibiotics? 1. Vancomycin 1g IV within one hour of surgery andupto24hoursafter after. 2. Cefazolin 1g IV within one hour of surgery and every 8 hours for 72 hours after surgery. 3. Cefazolin 1g IV within one hour of surgery and up to 24 hours after. 4. Ceftriaxone 1g IV within one hour of surgery, and 1g IV after surgery. Reevaluate Case 1-B - ID Question RE1-B You are developing a table of appropriate antibiotic choices for surgical prophylaxis at your local hospital. For which one of the following procedures would cefazolin alone not be the best antibiotic to use? 1. Vaginal hysterectomy 2. Total hip replacement in a patient who develops a rash with ampicillin 3. Biliary surgery in a patient with common duct stones 4. Colorectal surgery in a patient who develops diarrhea with penicillin 3

4 Case Vignette 1 - ID Question 1-C Following surgery TP recovers in the intensive care unit and is mechanically ventilated. On the third day of hospitalization/intensive care unit stay, TP develops e a fever e and localized infiltrates on chest x-ray. He is also producing copious, thick sputum. Vital signs: temperature: F, HR 78, RR vented, BP 134/86. Labs: Na 136, K 4.8, Cl 98, HCO3 23, BUN 24, Scr 0.92 and glucose 110, Hgb 9.6, Hct 28.5, WBC 18.6 and platelets 335. What is the best empiric treatment for TP? 1. Ceftriaxone 1g IV daily plus azithromycin 500mg IV daily. 2. Ceftriaxone 1g IV daily plus levofloxacin 750mg IV daily plus linezolid 600mg IV q12h. 3. Cefepime 1g IV q12h plus tobramycin 7 mg/kg IV q24h plus linezolid 600mg IV q12h. 4.

JW lives at home with her husband and has had no antibiotics for at least 3 years. JW is allergic to morphine and sulfa antibiotics. On physical exam: temperature of 102.4F, HR 95 bpm, RR of 31 bpm and BP of 86/62. Labs: Na 147, K 3.7, Cl 101, HCO3 19, BUN 36, Scr 1.22 and glucose 144, Hgb 11.2, Hct, 34.8, WBC 18.4 and platelets 333. What is the best treatment for JW? 1. Send her home with a prescription for doxycycline 100mg po twice daily for 10 days. 2. Admit her to the hospital, to a general medicine floor, and start on ceftriaxone 1g IV daily plus clarithromycin 500mg po twice daily for at least 5 days. 3.
