Demonstrate understanding of minimum inhibitory concentration

Bacteria e-coli

For your culture, tell me:

What kind of bacteria is the patient colonizing (gram +/-, cocci, rod, spiral)?

Demonstrate understanding of minimum inhibitory concentration Refer to a guide for interpreting minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)

What is the advantage of a drug with a sensitivity of <1 versus a sensitivity <20?

Based on the culture report, which drug will be best for the patient AND why? What about for a patient with multiple bacteria?

Is the drug you selected bacterial-cidal, bacterio-static, or both?

Check each other and discuss. Your group will share the final grade for this project.
