In the environment in which we live, bacteria are ubiquitous, both as a micro-ecological part of our bodies and may, under certain conditions, become the cause of disease. Antibacterial treatment is an important means of restoring health when bacteria invade the human body and cause infection. This paper will provide you with a detailed description of the main methods of antibacterial treatment and the relevant scientific principles and concerns.
The core of antibacterial treatment is the use of antibacterial drugs (mainly antibiotics) to suppress or kill bacteria that cause infection. Antibiotics function in a variety of ways, but mostly through interference with the biological processes of bacteria in order to kill or suppress bacteria. For example, some antibiotics can destroy the cytowalls of bacteria and cause them to die without protection; others can inhibit the synthesis of proteins from bacteria and disrupt their growth and reproduction; and others can interfere with the DNA reproduction of bacteria, thus preventing the transmission of their genetic information.
The main methods of antibacterial treatment The methods of antibacterial treatment vary according to the state of the disease, the type of pathogen and the individual of the patient, including, inter alia, the four methods of local external delivery, oral delivery, muscle injection and intravenous fluid. 1. Where the infection is limited to skin, mucous membrane or some shallow tissue, local external antibiotic ointment or solution is the preferred treatment. This approach can directly affect the infection, reduce the side effects of the whole-body drug, while increasing local drug concentrations and enhancing the fungicide effect. Common local antibiotics, such as cyncin, erythroacin, Mopine, etc., are widely used to treat skin, eye and oral infections. Oral antibiotics are a convenient and economical treatment for patients with mild symptoms and good overall health. Oral antibiotics are absorbed into the blood cycle through the gastrointestinal tract, distributed throughout the tissues for the purpose of bactericide or inoculation. Oral administration is applied to respiratory, digestive, urinary and partially soft tissue infections. In the choice of oral antibiotics, factors such as the age of the patient, liver and kidney function, and allergies are taken into account to ensure safe and effective use. 3. Muscular injection is the direct injection of antibiotics into the muscular tissue and is applied in cases where the condition is more serious, oral administration is less effective or the patient is unable to take oral medication. Muscular injections can rapidly increase the concentration of drugs in the blood to the effect of rapid microbicide. However, muscle injection is more painful than oral administration, and there is a risk of local infection and therefore the principle of sterile operation is strictly followed. In patients with severe conditions, rapid spread of infection or difficulties in absorbing oral drugs, intravenous fluids are the preferred antibacterial treatment. An intravenous fluid can directly inject antibiotics into the blood cycle, rapidly reaching therapeutic concentrations and applying to severe infections, infectious shock and severe systemic infections. The IVS is performed in hospitals and is operated by specialized medical personnel to ensure its safety and efficacy.
1. Prior to the use of antibiotics, pathogens should be identified and their sensitivity identified through laboratory examinations, such as bacterial culture, drug-sensitive testing and so forth, in order to select appropriate antibiotics for treatment. Avoid blind use of antibiotics and reduce drug resistance. The use of pediatric antibiotics should be guided by the principle of “sufficient and pediatric” to ensure the total elimination of pathogens and to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is important to avoid arbitrary withdrawals or changes in treatment programmes to the detriment of the efficacy of treatment. 3. In the use of adverse reaction antibiotics, close attention should be paid to changes in the patient ‘ s condition and adverse reactions, such as allergies and damage to his liver and kidney function. When anomalies are detected, the medication should be stopped and treated. 4. Prevention of cross-infection during the use of antibiotics should enhance the patient ‘ s personal health and avoid cross-infection. At the same time, family members and health-care providers should pay attention to personal hygiene and reduce the transmission of pathogens. Antibacterial treatment is an important defence to human health, but the rational use of antibiotics, avoidance of abuse and drug resistance is equally important. Through scientific choice of medicines, clear pathogen diagnostics, pharmacological treatments for pediatrics and attention to adverse reactions, we can make more effective use of antibacterial treatments to bring health and hope to patients. In the days ahead, let us work together to keep this scientific line of defence and to make the tree of life even stronger.
