1.	Infection 11/01/1999 - "OBJECTIVES: taking into account the small amount of infection eradication treatments carried out in our country and some characteristics arising from the resistances to some antibiotics, the Spanish Club for the Study of Helicobacter pylori decided to organize a Spanish Consensus Conference to clarify the use of the different infection diagnostic tests, to establish the exact indications of its diagnosis and treatment, to recommend the best treatment guidelines for our country and to promote the use of eradication treatments in adequate indications" 04/01/2006 - "Cultures of aspirated joint fluid can be especially helpful for patients who have symptoms suggestive of infection, but their results are best interpreted two weeks after administration of antibiotics has been discontinued" 04/01/2006 - "Prophylactic antibiotics have helped to reduce significantly the risk of infection; however, clinicians managing these patients should also have a thorough understanding of the risk factors leading to postoperative infections and should apply the most basic surgical principles at all times, to minimize infection rates" 03/30/2006 - "However, the rapid onset of resistance to most antibacterial drugs diminishes their effectiveness considerably and necessitates a constant supply of new antibiotics for effective treatment of infections" 08/01/2003 - "Some general principles can be helpful for the selection of initial treatment: knowledge of most frequently identified responsible pathogens and their susceptibility patterns in the unit; prior duration of hospitalisation; previously prescribed antibiotics; information obtained by direct examination of pulmonary secretions; antibacterial activity and pharmacodynamic characteristics of antibiotics that could be used to treat this infection" Order ALL the reference details at left...
2.	Sepsis (Septicemia) 06/01/1984 - "A number of appropriate antibiotics and antibiotic combinations are available for intraabdominal sepsis, but most data still favor combinations of an antiaerobic drug, most often an aminoglycoside, and an antianaerobic drug--and possibly a third agent effective against enterococci." 12/01/1994 - "Overall neonatal sepsis incidence changed very little, but there was a marked decrease in very early onset sepsis in 1988 to 1992 especially in very low birth weight (< 1500 g) infants, possibly attributable to increased use of prenatal antibiotics" 10/01/2008 - "Two patients developed sepsis with good outcome with intravenous antibiotics treatment" 05/01/2006 - "CONCLUSIONS: Overall, there was a significant improvement in doctors' understanding of sepsis and knowledge of the source of information that they utilized to select the antibiotic of choice, although the majority did not acknowledge the price difference between intravenous and oral forms of antibiotics." 07/01/2001 - "In conclusion, we found that 24-hour prophylaxis with a single broad-antibiotic is as effective as prophylaxis for longer periods of time with multiple spectrum antibiotics for critically injured patients at high risk for sepsis."

3.	Pneumonia (Pneumonitis) 10/01/2005 - "Beta-lactam and macrolide antibiotics are considered safe in pregnancy and are effective for most community-acquired pneumonia in pregnancy" 02/01/2003 - "It is now commonly accepted that the incidence of pneumonia is reduced,however, the concept of using topical antibiotics has its inherent limitations and the best results have been obtained by combination with a short course of intravenous antibiotics" 04/01/2000 - "Most reports found a significant reduction in pneumonitis when patients received prolonged prophylactic antibiotics" 02/01/1986 - "Interstitial electrophoresis of antibiotics included in the complex of curative measures was shown to be highly effective for the treatment of chronic pneumonia" 09/01/2001 - "Although the advent of broad-spectrum antibiotics has markedly improved the maternal outcomes of pneumonia complicating pregnancy, pneumonia remains a significant condition that may complicate pregnancy" Order ALL the reference details at left...
4.	Abscess 09/01/2001 - "Most patients will be cured without operation by antibiotics and if necessary, by additional percutaneous drainage where an abscess has formed." 01/01/1998 - "The diagnosis of primary pyogenic abscess requires a high index of suspicion and the best treatment is early operative drainage and administration of systemic antibiotics." 07/01/1994 - "This procedure has now become well entrenched in clinical medicine and probably ranks with the development of effective antibiotics as the most significant improvement in the treatment of abscesses in the past century" 06/01/1991 - "We conclude that the diagnosis of renal abscesses is greatly facilitated by ultrasonography and CT and that most patients can be cured without operation by antibiotics and, if necessary, by additional percutaneous drainage." 01/01/1998 - "Percutaneous drainage of the abscess, combined with antibiotics provided marked improvement" Order ALL the reference details at left...
5.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 09/01/1982 - "Primary repair of concomitant injuries, use of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics, and rigid immobilization for a short period followed by active mobilization will yield the best results." 02/01/1989 - "The basic principles of the pathology, physiology, diagnosis, and management of nonpenetrating chest trauma evolved to a significant degree before World War II. The advances in the past 40 years include more frequent use of endotracheal intubation, improved ventilatory assistance, better control of blood volume, antibiotics, the clinical application of blood-gas studies, diagnostic imaging, and specialized nursing and monitoring in intensive care units" 02/01/2005 - "Despite this lack of evidence, antibiotics are frequently a feature of the management of chronic wounds and these patients receive significantly more antibiotic prescriptions (both systemic and topical) than age and sex-matched patients" 02/01/1995 - "Of the 15 factors studied, only intravenous antibiotics significantly decreased the incidence of positive anterior chamber cultures in eyes treated before wound repair compared with eyes not receiving such therapy (P = .002)" 12/01/1985 - "Antimicrobial prophylaxis should be restricted to high-risk patients and the antibiotics used must be effective against exogenic wound contaminants."
