facultative anaerobe
what can eikenella corrodens cause
endocarditis
menigitis
sinusitis
where is eikenella found
oral, upper resp.
how is eikenella corrodens treated
sensitive to most antibiotics, including penicillins.
how are bite wound generally treated
must treate anaerobes and aerobes.
what is pasteurella usually found in
animal bites
what class is pasteurella
small gram neg coccobacilli or rods
what is the major virulence factor in pasteurella
a capsule
what is the clincial manifestation of pasteurella

clincal picture and cultures
what is the treatment and prevention for pasteurella
penicillin or other antibiotics
no vaccine
what is the key to understanding bite wound treatment
must cover aerobes and anaerobes

penicillins cover most of the aeorbes pasteurella, eukinella, but does not work for bacteroides
