Bladder infections can spread into your kidneys and then into the blodd stream so they were probably checking to see how far it had progressed. I dont know if you understood my question, i know why they took the urine and blood samples. But i dont understand why a pregnancy urine test would say positive 3 times, pregnancy blood test say negative twice, and then another urine test done 6 hrs after being administered antibiotics come out negative. What was with that first urine test saying positive?
What else can I help you with?
Why is important to distinguish between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in diagnosing a bacterial infection?
gram- negative and gram- positive bacteria differ in their response to different antibiotics
What type of infection are antibiotics used to fight?
Antibiotics treat bacterial infections (provided the bacteria isn't resistant to the antibiotic). Different antibiotics are required to treat Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria due to their differing structures. They have no effect on viruses.
In septic shock antibiotics may aggrevate hypotension?
septic shock is caused by viruses fungi and gram positive and gram negative bacteria.however if infection comes untreated.hypovolemic shock develops. septic shock is caused by viruses fungi and gram positive and gram negative bacteria.however if infection comes untreated.hypovolemic shock develops.
What types of bacteria do antibiotics kill?
Gram negative and gram positive bacteria.
Why might a gram-negative infection be harder to treat than gram-positive infection?
In short, it's because they have a membrane around their cell wall that both increases their toxicity, and makes them more resistant to antibiotics. It makes them more resistant because many antibiotics, such as penicillin, work by destroying the cell walls of bacteria. Because they have an extra membrane around their cell walls, gram negative bacteria have extra protection against the antibiotics.
What kind of infections do antibiotics fight?
Antibiotics fight bacterial infections, antibiotics do not fight all bacterial infections however, they generally fight one of two types of bacteria (gram negative and gram positive). Antibiotics have no effect on viral infections or parasites, but they are sometimes prescribed with a viral infection to prevent a bacterial superinfection - when you get a bacterial infection because your immune system was weakened by the viral infection first. Antibiotics have saved more lives than those lost in any war but overusing them or not finishing a course can lead to the evolution of resistant bacteria which can no longer be killed by antibiotics.
If you have chlamydia but your partner tested negative will he get it?
Chlamydia is a curable infection. Unless your partner was tested in the brief amount of time before they could test positive for the bacteria, it is unlikely you would reinfect them.
Can antibiotics lead to septic shock if used to treat gram-positive bacterial infections?
No, but it can if it is gram negative bacteria..
What if TORCH Test igm negative igg positive?
As far as i know IGG positive means you had infection in the past and IGM negative means u r not infected currently.
Is a positive plus a negative make a positive or a negative?
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
What is a negative - positive?
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
Which Gran Positive or negative which is more serious?
Gram positive bacteria responds to the Gram stain; gram negative bacteria does not. The two bacteria do not respond to the same antibiotics. Right now the most dangerous bacteria is a gram negative bacteria. That could change.
