- 1. An adult male patient (52yo; 75kg) whose serum creatinine is 1.9mg/dL is to be given gentamicin sulfate for a confirmed Gram-negative infection. The usual dose is 1mg/kg body weight q 8 hours by multiple IV bolus injections. Gentamicin sulfate is available as 40mg/mL. Calculate a. The creatinine clearance in this patient b. The appropriate dosage regimen of gentamicin sulfate for this patient in mg and mL c.

- A patient in ICU with an indwelling medical device is presenting with invasive infection symptoms, specifically fever and chills. They have been on a course of antibiotics that has not alleviated the condition. The doctor’s start the patient on a course of voriconazole - a typical front line antifungal for invasive infections. They also take a blood sample to confirm the infectious agent. Below are what the cultures come back as, as well as what cells taken from this plate look like under the microscope. Left: Results of a blood culture on blood agar plate after incubation at 37°C for 2 days.Right: Cells from the agar plate under the microscope - scale bar = 5 µm. The lab determined that a Candida species was causing this infection. Based on what you know about fungal pathogen morphology, why do you think the lab ruled out Aspergillus or Cryptococcus infection?Which of the following is not a factor that should be considered when selecting a antimicrobial drug? A. The nature of the microbe causing the infection B. The overall medical condition of the patient C. The origin of the drug D. The degree of susceptibility of the microbe to that drug35. There is a mystery and an unusual bacterial disease in Contra Costa County. Researchers as well as physicians conclude that it must be controlled before it goes out of hand.

Group of answer choices Rifamycin Penicillin Quinolones ( such as ciprofloxacillin) Tetracycline Sulfa drug and trimethoprim combination 36. Which of the following best describes action of the ciprofloxacillin in prokaryotes ? Group of answer choices inhibits RNA polymerase, consequently no RNA synthesis in bacteria interferes with DNA replication by randomly nicking the DNA enhances DNA gyrase activity in killing UTI pathogens binds and modifies elongation factor ( ADP ribosylates) inhibits prokaryotic translation by binding to 50S subunits and arresting translocation inhibits DNA gyrase; prevents snapping back of the separated strands at replication fork
