Term
Broad spectrum: meaning, use, examples
Definition
Kills many groups of bacteria; use when identity of pathogen unknown, carbapenems, cephalosporins, tetracyclines, chloramphenicol, fluorquinolones)
Term
Narrow spectrum: meaning, use and why, examples
Definition
kills one or a few groups of bacteria; use when identity of pathogen known, why: protects bacteria that breaks down polysacharides in intestine (diarrhea if not digested), that produce vitamin K (bleeding if killed) and colon bacteria (if killed allows pathogenic bacteria to move in); penicillin, glycopeptides, monobactams?, lincosamides)
Term
Bactericidal? Bacteriostatic and contraindication? Combination therapy?
Definition
Cidal: Kills bacteria; static: inhibits bacteria growth and immune system kills (don't use if px has compromised immune system e.g. HIV); Use cidal drugs together and static drugs together (cidal drugs require bacteria to be actively proliferating and not inhibited).
Term
Categories of antibacterial cell wall inhibitors
Definition
beta lactams and non beta lactams
Term
Categories of beta lactams
Definition
penicillin, cephalosporin, carbapenems, monobactams
Term
Categories of anibacterial drugs?
Definition
Cell wall inhibitors, cell membrane inhibitors, inhibitors of DNA synthesis and inhibitors of protein synthesis
Term
Category of inhibitors of bacteria DNA synthesis
Definition
fluoroquinolones (broad-3rd Gen)
Term
Categories of bacterial inhibitors of protein synthesis
Definition
Tetracylines (static, broad); aminoglycocides (cidal); lincosamides (narrow); macrolides; chloramphenicol (static, broad)
Term
Antibacterial drug side effects
Definition
1) Diarrhea from A) Pseudomembranous colitis/C. difficile colonization (tx: metronidizole [DOC], vancomycin) B) ingestion of carbohydrates (not absorbed)C) agonism of duodenum motilin receptors that promote peristaliss (macrolides, erthromycin)
2) increased risk of bleeding from A) inhibition of 2C9 (warfarin action up) by macrolides, chloramphenicol or fluoroquinolines B) Sulfonamides (displace warfarin from albumin, increase warfarin action) C)NMTT structure of Cephalosporins (interferes with hepatic synthesis of vitamin K dependent factors)
3) Avoid FCATS during pregnancy (fluoroquinolones, chloramphenicol, aminoglycosides, tetracyclins, sulfonamides)
Term
4 methods of antibiotic resistance
Definition
efflux pump, antibiotic altering enzyme, antibiotic degrading enzyme (beta lactamase), altered target (PBP or porin structure)
Term
Gram positive: cell membrane/wall structure; staining?
Definition
cell wall contains peptidoglycan, surrounding plasma membrane; iodine stains purple
Term
Gram negative: cell membrane/wall structure; staining?
Definition
cell wall separate, contains porins, and surrounds peptidoglycan layer, which surrounds plasma membrane; iodine doesn't stain, but counterstains pink
Term
Meningitis antibiotic quality? 1st line tx? 2nd line tx? not used for tx?
Definition
Must pass thru blood-brain barrier; 1st: cefotaxim, cefriaxome, ceftazidime (cephalosporins that pass bbb during infection); 2nd: chloramphenicol (if allergy, always passes bbb); no: sulfonamides, trimethoprim (pass bbb but menigitidis resistant to)
Term
categories of penicillins
Definition
natural, antistaph, extended spectrum, antipseudomonal
Term
beta lactams mode of action, cidal or static, resistant bacteria, elimination, ADR; types of resistance
Definition
disrupt penicillin binding proteins (PBP) that crosslink chains via transpeptidation; bactericidal; Chlamydia and mycoplasm are resistant (no peptidoglycan cell wall); renal elimination (through PSOASS, retain with probencid except oxacillin/nafcillin); hypersensitivity: rash, broncospasm, urticaria (hives), anaphylactic shock -> cross allergenicity (if allergic to one, allergic to others); beta lactamase/change in PBP/Porin
Term
penicillins category, spectrum, cidal/static, bbb passage, ending, structural note
Definition
beta lactams; narrow; cidal; bbb passage during infection; -cillin; thiazolidine ring
Term
cephalosporin category, spectrum, cidal/static, prefix, structural notes
Definition
beta lactams; broad; cidal; cef/ceph; dihydrothiazine, if NMTT structure than 1) interferes with synthesis of vit. K dependent factors and increases bleeding 2) disulfiram like (blocks acetaldehyde dehydrogenase -> hangover symptoms with alcohol)
Term
carbapenems category, spectrum, cidal/static, -ending, structural note, beta lactamase and probenecid effect?
Definition
synthetic beta lactams; broad(est) spectrum; cidal; -penem ; thiazolidine (but lacks sulfur); beta lactamase resistant, not probenecid sensitive
Term
imipenem category, coadministered with (why?)
Definition

Term
monobactams category, spectrum, cidal/static, structural note, beta lactamase and probenecid effect? SE?

Term
Cephalosporin 1st gen, 3rd gen, 4th gen, all gens; tx for (with which drugs)?
Definition
1G: beta lactamase sensitive, affects gram +; 3G: beta lactamase resistant, affects gram -; 4G affects gram +/-; all gens affect strep; meningitis tx (caused by N. meningitidis), use cefotaxim, cefriaxome, ceftazidime)
