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.
