N The discovery of antibiotics was initially hailed as the ultimate solution to the problem of bacterial infections. However; the Utah Department of Health indicates that the overuse and inappropriate use of an has led to the development of antibiotic-resistabacteria. Ftew guidelines are available for physicians and health care providers that detail when and when not to prescribe antibiotics in the outpatients setting. Antibiotics are mistakenly prescribed for viral illnesses, allergyrolatedninessemandforpatientawith "green sputum or nasal secretions. Education of health care providers and patients about appropriate antibiotic use can help to curtail the problem of emerglngantlbtotlc resistance. Researchers in rural Alaska provided education to community members and medical providers about the appropriate use of antimicrobial for children with ' upper respiratory infections. Two other areas served crobial prescriptions per respiratory Visit ItfchHdred under five years and simultaneous 28 percent decline in pneumococcal isolates that were resistant to penicillin. Mb significant changes In either antibiotic us- -, age or antibiotic resistance levels were seen in the nonintervention population. ' The study in rural Alaska shows that education of health care providers and patients can lead to a change in how antibiotics are prescribed for upper respiratory illnesses. Similar educational efforts might be ; useful for other conditions. According to the 1998 antibiotic use survey conducted by the bureau of epidemiology primary care physicians in Utah prescribed antibiotics for pharyngitis between 25 percent and 75 percent of the time. Seventeen respondents (14 percent) specifically noted that they prescribed antibiotics ony when a positive strep test or culture was available. of the 13 million patients diag.Nearly nosed with sinusitis each yearare also prescribed antibiotics. In the same 1998 survey conducted by the of Epidemiology primary care physicians prescribed antibiotics for sinusitis between 25 percent and 75 percent of the time. However; studies have shown that no more than 10 percent of sinusitis patients have bacterial illness. Viruses cause the vast majority of acute sinus inflammation. To avoid unnecessary treatment for sinusitis, only patients with sinusitis symptoms that persist for more than 10 days should be treated with antibiotics. Signs and symptoms of sinusitis may include the following: first, a history of purulent nasal discharge with tinnateftlpfeddmlnance; second, a history of far dal paln with unilateral predominance; and third, findings ofpuipuient nasal discharge and )iu8 in nasal cav- two-thir- ds Bu-re- au as nonintervention controls.
