1 Upper Respiratory Tract Infections
2 OTITIS MEDIA Otitis media is an inflammation of the middle ear. There are more than 709 million cases of otitis media worldwide each year; half of these cases occur in children under 5 years of age. Otitis media is most common in infants and children. The risk factors for amoxicillin resistant bacteria in acute otitis media include attendance at a child care center, recent receipt of antibiotic treatment (past 30 days), and age younger than 2 years.
3 Pathophysiology Approximately 40% to 75% of acute otitis media cases are caused by viral pathogens. Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common bacterial cause of acute otitis media (35% 40%). Acute bacterial otitis media usually follows a viral upper respiratory tract infection Up to 40% of S. pneumonia isolates in the United States are penicillin nonsusceptible, and up to half of these have high-level penicillin resistance. Approximately 30% to 40% of H. influenzae and greater than 90% of M. catarrhalis isolates from the upper respiratory tract produce β lactamases.
4 Goals of Treatment The goals are: pain management, prudent antibiotic use, and secondary disease prevention. Pain of otitis media should be addressed with oral analgesics. Acetaminophen or a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent, such as ibuprofen, should be offered early to relieve pain of acute otitis media. Decongestants or antihistamines should not be recommended for acute otitis media because they provide minimal benefit.
5 A brief observation period should be considered to determine whether the patient requires immediate antibiotic therapy because of disease severity or patient characteristics. Antimicrobial therapy is used to treat otitis media; however, a high percentage of children will be cured with symptomatic treatment alone. Delayed antibiotic treatment (48 72 hours) may be considered in children 6 months to 2 years of age if symptoms are not severe and the diagnosis is uncertain, and in children 2 years of age or older with an uncertain diagnosis. Delayed treatment decreases antibiotic adverse effects and minimizes bacterial resistance. High-dose amoxicillin (80 90 mg/kg/day) is the drug of choice for acute otitis media. If β-lactamase-producing pathogens are suspected or known, amoxicillin should be given with clavulanate (90 mg/kg/day of amoxicillin with 6.4 mg/kg/day of clavulanate in two divided doses).

7 PHARYNGITIS Pharyngitis is an acute infection of the oropharynx or nasopharynx that results in 1% to 2% of all outpatient visits. Although viral causes are most common, group A β- hemolytic Streptococcus (GABHS), or Streptococcus pyogenes, is the primary bacterial cause. Viruses (eg, rhinovirus, coronavirus, and adenovirus) cause most of the cases of acute pharyngitis. A bacterial etiology for acute pharyngitis is far less likely. Of all of the bacterial causes, GABHS is the most common (15% 30% of cases in pediatric patients and 5% 15% in adults).
8 Because pain is often the primary reason for visiting a physician, emphasis on analgesics such as acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to aid in pain relief is strongly recommended. Penicillin and amoxicillin are the treatments of choice. Most cases of pharyngitis are selflimited; however, antimicrobial therapy
9 ACUTE BACTERIAL RHINOSINUSITIS Sinusitis is an inflammation and/or infection of the paranasal sinus mucosa. The majority of these infections are viral in origin. Acute bacterial sinusitis is most often caused by the same bacteria implicated in acute otitis media: S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae. These organisms are responsible for ~50% to 70% of bacterial causes of acute sinusitis in both adults and children.
10 Goals of Treatment: Reduce signs and symptoms Limiting antimicrobial treatment to those who may benefit. Eradicating bacterial infection with appropriate antimicrobial therapy, Minimizing the duration of illness, Preventing complications, and Preventing progression from acute disease to chronic disease.
11 Nasal decongestant sprays such as phenylephrine and oxymetazoline that reduce inflammation by vasoconstriction are often used in nonbacterial rhinosinusitis. Use should be limited to the recommended duration of the product (no more than 3 days) to prevent rebound congestion. Oral decongestants may also aid. Irrigation of the nasal cavity with saline and steam inhalation may be used to increase mucosal moisture, and mucolytics (eg, guaifenesin) may be used to decrease the viscosity of nasal secretions. Antihistamines and oral decongestants should not be used for acute bacterial sinusitis in view of their anticholinergic effects that can dry mucosa and disturb clearance of mucosal secretions
12 Amoxicillin is first-line treatment for acute bacterial sinusitis. It is cost effective in acute uncomplicated disease, and initial use of newer broad-spectrum agents is not justified.

16 BRONCHITIS Acute Bronchitis: Bronchitis refers to an inflammatory condition of the large elements of the tracheobronchial tree that is usually associated with a generalized respiratory infection. The inflammatory process does not extend to include the alveoli. The disease entity is frequently classified as either acute or chronic.
17 Acute bronchitis most commonly occurs during the winter months. Cold, damp climates and/or the presence of high concentrations of irritating substances such as air pollution or cigarette smoke may precipitate attacks. Respiratory viruses are by far the most common infectious agents associated with acute bronchitis. The common cold viruses including rhinovirus and coronavirus and lower respiratory tract pathogens including
18 Infection of the trachea and bronchi causes hyperemic and edematous mucous membranes and an increase in bronchial secretions. Destruction of respiratory epithelium can range from mild to extensive and may affect bronchial mucociliary function. In addition, the increase in bronchial secretions, which can become thick and tenacious, further impairs
19 Clinical Presentation Acute bronchitis usually begins as an upper respiratory infection. The patient typically has nonspecific complaints, such as malaise and headache, coryza, and sore throat. Cough is the hallmark of acute bronchitis. It occurs early and will persist despite the resolution of nasal or nasopharyngeal
20 Treatment Goals of Therapy: The goal is to provide comfort to the patient and, in the unusually severe case, to treat associated dehydration and respiratory compromise. The treatment of acute bronchitis is symptomatic and supportive in nature. Reassurance and antipyretics alone are often sufficient. Bed rest and mild analgesic antipyretic therapy are often helpful in relieving the associated lethargy, malaise, and fever. Patients should be encouraged to drink fluids to prevent dehydration and possibly decrease the
21 Mist therapy and/or the use of a vaporizer may further promote the thinning and loosening of respiratory secretions. In otherwise healthy patients, no meaningful benefits have been described with the use of oral or aerosolized β2-receptor agonists and/or oral or aerosolized corticosteroids. Persistent, mild cough, which may be bothersome, may be treated with dextromethorphan; more severe coughs may require intermittent codeine or other similar agents. Routine use of antibiotics in the treatment of
22 Treatment The patient will most likely benefit from antibiotic therapy if two or three of the following are present: (1) increase of shortness of breath.
23 Pneumonia Pneumonia is the most common infectious cause of death in the United States. It occurs in persons of all ages, although the clinical manifestations are most severe in the very young, the elderly, and the chronically ill.
24 Pneumonia Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative Bacterial Pneumonia Anaerobic Pneumonia Mycoplasma pneumoniae Viral Pneumonia Hospital-acquired Pneumonia
25 TREATMENT Eradication of the offending organism and complete clinical cure are the primary objectives. Associated morbidity should be minimized (eg, renal, pulmonary, or hepatic dysfunction). The first priority on assessing the patient with pneumonia is to evaluate the adequacy of respiratory
