This guideline, prepared by the Hospital Infection Control Committee of Christian Medical College, Vellore, provides recommendations for the prudent antimicrobial utilization in adults. It covers principles of rational prescribing, initial empiric antibiotics for common infections (GI, CNS, respiratory, skin/soft tissue), targeted definitive therapy, infective endocarditis prophylaxis, surgical prophylaxis, and dosing adjustments for renal insufficiency, aiming to counter increasing antimicrobial resistance.
This is the eighth edition of the pocket-sized guide, which is an abridgement of the full Bates' Guide. It focuses on methods for performing physical examinations and taking patient histories, serving as a key resource for foundational clinical skills.
