principles to choose
Antibiotics
Once the decision has been made to use antibiotics
as an adjunct to treating infection the antibiotics
should be properly selected. The followingguide
linesare useful
1. Identification of causative
organism
2. Determination of antibiotic
sensitivity
3. Choice of antibiotics
3 Choice of antibiotics
Upon receipt of the culture and sensitivity report,
there may be a choice of four or five antibiotics.
Selection should be based on consideration of
several factors like
1. Patients previous history of allergy
2. Antibiotics with narrow spectrum
3. Drug that cause fewest adverse reactions.
4. Drug which is least toxic
5. The well established still effective antibiotics
6. Bactericidal rather than bacteriostatic drug
7. The less expensive still effective antibotic
8. Combination antibiotics
antibiotics
Since its initial availability, penicillin, has
been used for oral infection and it has been
very effective, with low incidence of adverse
reaction. Newer antibiotics should be used
only when they have proved advantage over
the older ones .

A New Concept of
Antibiotic Loaded
HAP/TCP Bone
Substitute for
INTRODUCTION:
Infections and their consequences are a considerable problem inorthopedic
surgery.
Despite systemic prophylaxis, infection rates after orthopedic surgery are
above1%.
Antibiotic loaded PMMA bone cements have been shown to enhance the
efficiency of intravenous prophylactic treatments for total hipreplacement1.
However, less than 10% of the load is released during the first 5-10 days
ofimplantation2: the remaining antibiotic is released at low levels over many
months3 and could select antibiotic-resistant strains2.
The recommendations for the use of antibiotic in prophylactic applications
are to obtain high levels, with treatment duration inferior to 48 hours.
A new HAP/TCP bone substitute loaded with 125 mg of Gentamicin was
designed for prophylactic use in bone filling applications.
Its aim was to enhance the efficacy of systemic prophylactic treatments by
increasing the local antibiotic concentration without selecting resistant
strains.
