- Identifying an unknown bacterium is an essential step in the diagnosis and treatment process. Since not every antibiotic is effective against every type of bacteria, knowing what caused a particular infection allows us to make correct prescriptions so patients can recover more quickly. Knowing the cause of an infection also prevents antibiotic resistance as well, since incorrect prescriptions allow bacteria to be unnecessarily be exposed to antibiotics, increasing the chances of developing resistance.arrow_forwardPlease refer to the given scenario below. What is the most appropriate sample to be collected to isolate the causative agent of the infection? * A 46-year-old male encountered a motor-vehicular accident (MVA) resulting in multiple injuries on his anterior chest and left lower extremities. Aside from the injury, his medical history was unremarkable. The patient was admitted for nine days and underwent debridement and was discharged with an external fixator. However, during his admission, on his 7m post-operative day, the wound was noted to have persistent purulent, bloody discharge from drain site, which is highly suggestive of surgical site infection (SSI).
