Presentation
A higher risk of treatment failure for antibiotic therapy was found for patients presenting to the ED with symptoms of cIAIs lasting >24 h. Alternative antimicrobial agents should be considered for treating these patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology
A patient with multiple, pyogenic hepatic abscesses is described, and the pathophysiology, etiologies, clinical and laboratory manifestations, and management of the disease are reviewed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Given the mixed bacterial etiology of such infections in both drug users and nonusers and given the need to initiate treatment before the results of antimicrobial susceptibility tests are known, empirical therapy with broad-spectrum antimicrobials may [academic.oup.com]
Epidemiology
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate epidemiology, resistance, and treatment outcomes of Acinetobacter baumannii bacteremia treated with imipenem-cilastatin or ampicillin-sulbactam for 72 hours or longer. DESIGN: Retrospective analysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Ampicillin and Sulbactam for Injection may be administered by either the IV or the IM routes. [druglib.com]
Pathophysiology
The patient remained under continuous observation and cardiac monitoring throughout her reaction, thus providing unique insight into the pathophysiology of myocardial injury caused by anaphylaxis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
Brief Summary: The efficacy and safety of a single dose of ampicillin/sulbactam compared to a single dose of cefuroxime at cord clamp for prevention of postcesarean infectious morbidity has not been assessed. [clinicaltrials.gov]
Conclusions Ampicillin/sulbactam was as safe and effective as cefuroxime when administered for the prevention of infections following cesarean delivery. [bmcinfectdis.biomedcentral.com]
