New edition
The new, updated edition of the book will include current information (as of November/December 2007) on anti-infective agents: antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, antimycobacterial drugs, and pathogen-specific immune globulin/monoclonal antibody products.
Based on the new recommended and available data on treatment options, there is a new chapter specifically on community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections, a prominent new pediatric pathogen that has spread dramatically since the 2006-7 edition of Nelson’s Pocket Book was written.
The book will also include bibliography of journal publications, reviews, and texts that were used to establish evidence-based recommendations on the agents most likely to be effective. The references will be available in the PDA version, and will be posted on the NelsonsPocketBook.com website.
Main sections:
* Antibiotic therapy for neonates
* Antimicrobial therapies for clinical syndromes
* Preferred antimicrobial for bacterial, fungal, viral, and parasitic pathogens, including the drug of choice and alternative agents
* Use of antimicrobials in specific clinical scenarios, such as serious infections, renal failure, and sequential antibiotic therapy
* Adverse reactions and interactions of drugs
