Antibiotics are powerful agents for preventing and controlling infection in the acute care pediatric patient population. This CE offering reviews general principles that can enhance a nurse practitioner’s (NP) confidence in knowing when and why to administer these medications.
Both novice and expert NPs will appreciate the detailed discussions regarding bacterial classifications, mechanism of action, antibiotic-resistant factors, and special populations, including specific age groups or those with a penicillin allergy. Extensive Q&As with comprehensive rationales that explain the reasoning behind specific medication choices are also incorporated into this presentation.

Also discussed in this CE offering:

  • The six-steps of rational prescribing
  • The empiric 3 Ps
  • Infections related to body systems
