1 Antibiotic Update Ashley Gustafson, Pharm.D., BCPS PGY-2 Critical Care Pharmacy Resident Baptist Hospital of Miami Disclosure I do not have a vested interest in or affiliation with any corporate organization offering financial support or grant monies for this continuing education activity, or any affiliation with an organization whose philosophy could potentially bias my presentation Pharmacist Objectives Review antimicrobial resistance patterns Assess new antimicrobial agents and their appropriate indications Discuss what is new in the antimicrobial pipeline Explain why antimicrobial stewardship is important Technician Objectives Recognize new antimicrobial agents and their appropriate use in infectious disease Discuss what is new in the antimicrobial pipeline Explain why antimicrobial stewardship is important Antibiotic Resistance Threats The microbes are educated to resist penicillin... In such cases the thoughtless person playing with penicillin is morally responsible for the death of the man who finally succumbs to infection with the penicillin-resistant organism. I hope this evil can be averted. - Sir Alexander Fleming 1945 Antibiotic Resistance Variable Microbes Humans Factor No. on earth 5 x x 10 9 ~10 22 Mass, metric ton 5 x x 10 8 ~ 10 8 Generation time 30 min 30 years ~ 5x 10 5 Time on earth, years 3.5 x x 10 6 ~ 10 3 Spellberg B et al.

7 True/False Questions Ceftaroline covers the same bacteria as ceftriaxone but adds on coverage for MRSA Linezolid and tedizolid are both in the oxazolidinone class and have contraindications for MAOI and serotonin toxicity Delafloxacin is a new fluoroquinolone that has better gram negative coverage than ciprofloxacin References 1.
