Antibiotics, vancomycin, and chemotherapy are the case studies that will be looked at. Patient -Centered Care: Antibiotic Therapy Mr. G lives as a resident in an assisted care facility since experiencing a stroke on his left side 5 years ago. He is stable both cardiovascularly and cerebrovascular, but Mr. G has a productive cough and a low grade fever for 2 days. Mr. G was diagnosed with pneumonia in the left lower lobe of the lungs after getting a physical assessment and chest x -rays. The doctor prescribes IV piperacillin/tazobactam (Zosyn) every 8 hours and oral theophylline (Theo -Dur) 300 mg every 12 hours. Mr. G’s current medications are warfarin (Coumadin) 2 mg every evening, Maalox 30 ml for GI upset, and ibuprofen 400 mg for pain as needed. Explain the rationale behind the use of tazobactam with piperacillin in Zosyn Piperacillin is an extended -spectrum penicillin that is part of the class of beta -lactam antibiotics that are rarely used by themselves and are usually available in a fixed -combination product with beta -lactamase inhibitors (Lilley et al., 2020). Tazobacta m is the beta -lactamase inhibitor that is used in combination with piperacillin to allow more coverage against bacteria (Lilley et al., 2020). Which order will the nurse implement first? Explain your answer. The nurse should gather the blood cultures from the two different sites before starting antibiotic treatment. It is important to get a blood culture before administering antibiotics because if antibiotics are taken beforehand, it may lead to false negative results (Lilley et al., 2020).
