Antibiotic use in level II hospitals
Antibiotic use in level II hospitals
I. Importance and risk of antibiotics
– Antibiotics are a powerful means of treating bacterial infections. In level II hospitals, many patients come for treatment because of a variety of infectious diseases, such as pneumonia, urinary system infections, injury infections, etc. The rational use of antibiotics can effectively control infections, reduce patient suffering, reduce the risk of complications and even save lives. Unreasonable use of antibiotics, however, also poses serious problems. On the one hand, it can lead to bacterial resistance, making otherwise effective antibiotics weak in the face of bacteria, making treatment more difficult; on the other hand, the misuse of antibiotics can cause adverse reactions, such as allergies, intestinal strains, etc.
II. Normative processes for the use of antibiotics in level II hospitals
– Diagnosis: In the case of patients suspected of contracting the infection, the doctor must first make an accurate determination as to whether the infection is bacterial. This involves combining the symptoms of the patient (heat, pain, edema, etc.), signs (hearing, contact results) and laboratory examinations (blood routine, C reaction protein, calcium calcium, bacterial culture, etc.). For example, in cases where the fever is accompanied by cough and cough, bacterial pneumonia is determined through examinations such as chest X-rays and stinging.
– Drug choice: the choice of appropriate antibiotics is based on the type of infection, its location, its severity and the individual circumstances of the patient (age, liver and kidney function, allergies, etc.). For light community access to sexually transmitted pneumonia, oral treatments such as Amosilin may be preferred, while for hospital access to sexually transmitted pneumonia, especially for patients with more severe conditions, higher levels of antibiotics, such as thalamus, may be required. At the same time, the antibacterial spectrometry of the drug should be considered to ensure that the selected antibiotics cover the potential pathogens.
– Use of dosages and treatments: The right dosage is key to the efficacy of antibiotics. Inadequate doses may not effectively kill bacteria, while excessive doses increase the probability of adverse reactions. The process is also important and, in general, for acute infections, there is a need to continue to use antibiotics for a period of time after the patient ‘ s symptoms have disappeared to ensure the complete elimination of bacteria. For example, acute bladder inflammation, antibiotics are usually used for 3 – 7 days; for complex kidney inflammation, it may take 10 – 14 days, or longer.
Monitoring and adjustments
– The patient ‘ s response needs to be closely monitored during the use of antibiotics. Includes signs of improvement, such as reduced body temperature, reduction of pain, rehabilitation of inflammation indicators (e.g. white cell count, C reaction protein, etc.). At the same time, attention should be paid to possible adverse reactions. If the patient suffers from symptoms such as rash, itching, etc. after using antibiotics, it may be an allergic reaction, requiring a timely stoppage and appropriate treatment. In addition, if the initial treatment is ineffective, the doctor needs to re-evaluate the condition and consider whether there is a need to replace antibiotics or adjust treatment options, such as for more targeted antibiotics or for joint use of other drugs.
IV. Patient education
– Patients need basic knowledge of the use of antibiotics when receiving antibiotics at level II hospitals. The patient is informed that he/she will take the medication on time and in accordance with his/her medical instructions. At the same time, patients are informed of possible adverse reactions and, in case of anomalies, medical personnel are informed in a timely manner. Drinking of alcohol should be avoided during the use of specific antibiotics, such as uniazole, as their interaction may result in a double-sulphur coronal reaction, causing the patient to suffer from disorders such as dizziness, nausea and vomiting.
