Monitoring for a healthy, nonpregnant adult patient being treated

Correct Answer Follow up UC at completion of therapy
Monitoring for a pregannt woman who has had a UTI is:
1. symptom resolution in 48 hours

3. "test of cure" urinary analysis at completion of therapy
4. follow-up urine culture every 2 weeks until delivery Correct
Answer Follow up UC every 2 weeks until delivery
Along with antibiotic prescription, lifestyle education for a
nonpregnant adult female who has had a UTI includes:

Factors that place a patient at risk of developing an antimicrobial-
resistant organism include:
1. age over 50
2. school attendance
3. travel within the US
4. inappropriate use of antimicrobials Correct Answer 4.
inappropriate use of antimicrobials
infants and young children are at higher risk of developing abc-
resistant infections due to:
1. developmental differences in pharmacokinetics of the abx of
children
2. the fact that children this age are more likely to be in daycare or
exposed to pathogens from other children
3. parents of young kids insisting on preventive abx so they don't
miss work when their kids are sick
, 4. immunosuppression from the multiple vaccines they receive in
the first 2 years of life Correct Answer 2. the fact that children this
age are more likely to be in daycare or exposed to pathogens
from other children
There is often cross-sensitivity and cross-resistance between
penicillins and cephalosporins because:
1. renal excretion is similar in both classes of drugs
2. when these drug classes are metabolized in the liver they both
produce resistant enzymes
3. both drug classes contain beta-lactam ring that is vulnerable to
beta-lactamase-producing organisms
4. there is not an issue with cross-resistance between the
penicillins and cephalosporins Correct Answer 3. both drug
classes contain beta-lactam ring that is vulnerable to beta-
lactamase-producing organisms
