Summary Introduction

To determine:

What problems must be considered to treat (drug therapy) the baby. What treatment would you guess was used for the infant?

Case summary:

A mother (Hispanic) brought her fragile son (infant) to an emergency room (Southern Texas). Her baby developed annexations and it was stabilized by the nurse. The boy diagnosed with tuberculosis, which severely affected his brain. Health-care workers revealed that his father and his uncle exposed TB to the baby, when the mom went to jail (Mexican) to meet both of them. His uncle was affected by drug-susceptible strain, whereas the jail inmates carried multi-drug resistant strain of TB. To determine which strain is infected the baby is a tedious one, because it will take weeks to come to a conclusion. Doctors must take a hard decision. Weather, the baby should be given a multi-drug-resistant strain (give painful consequences) or they should use  a normal drug (less stressful drug).
