Cefazolin plus netilmicin versus cefazolin plus ceftazidime for treating CAPD peritonitis: Effect on residual renal function

Cefazolin versus cefazolin plus metronidazole for antibiotic prophylaxis at cesarean section.

BACKGROUND Although prophylactic antibiotic medications have been shown to reduce the incidence of postoperative infectious morbidity after cesarean delivery, the most effective regimens have not been established. The purpose of this investigation was to compare the efficacy and costs of prophylaxis with cefazolin alone with cefazolin plus metronidazole. METHODS Women undergoing cesarean deli...

P79: The Efficacy of Cefazolin Plus Macrolide (Erythromycin or Clarithromycin) Versus Cefazolin Alone in Neonatal Morbidity and Placental Inflammation for Women with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes

Although the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is recommended to prolong pregnancy and decrease short-term neonatal complications, the optimal regimen remains undetermined. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of cefazolin plus macrolide (erythromycin or clarithromycin) versus cefazolin alone in reducing neonatal mo...

Comparison the Efficacy of Cefazolin plus Gentamicin with Cefazolin plus Ciprofloxacin in Management of Type –IIIA Open Fractures

Cefepime versus vancomycin plus netilmicin therapy for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis.

Cefepime is a cephalosporin with a broad spectrum of activity against most gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens. In this study, we attempted to compare the safety and efficacy of cefepime monotherapy against the potentially more toxic combination of vancomycin and netilmicin in the treatment of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)-associated bacterial peritonitis. Eighty-one co...
