Overview

Antimicrobial Regimens

Hematogenous Osteomyelitis

  • 1. Empiric antimicrobial therapy [1]
  • 1.1 Adult (>21 yrs)
  • 1.1.1 MRSA possible
  • Preferred regimen: Vancomycin 1 g IV q12h (if over 100 kg, 1.5 g IV q12h)
  • 1.1.2 MRSA unlikely
  • 1.2 Children (>4 months)
  • 1.2.1 MRSA possible
  • Preferred regimen: Vancomycin 40 mg/kg/day IV q6–8h
  • 1.2.2 MRSA unlikely
  • Preferred regimen: Nafcillin 37 mg/kg IV q6h (maximum dose 8–12 g/day) OR Oxacillin 37 mg/kg IV q6h (maximum dose 8–12 g/day)
  • Note: Add Ceftazidime 50 mg/kg IV q8h or Cefepime 150 mg/kg/day IV q8h if Gram-negative bacilli on Gram stain.
  • 2. Pathogen-directed antimicrobial therapy
  • 2.1 MSSA
  • 2.2 MRSA

Contiguous Osteomyelitis with Vascular Insufficiency

  • Osteomyelitis, contiguous with vascular insufficiency [2]
  • Debride overlying ulcer and send bone specimen for histology and culture.
  • No empiric antimicrobial therapy unless acutely ill.
  • Antibiotic therapy should be based on culture results
  • Treatment duration is at least 6 weeks.
  • Revascularize if possible.

Open Fracture Osteomyelitis

  • Long bone, post-internal fixation of fracture [3]
  • 1. S. aureus or P. aeruginosa
  • 2. Gram negative bacilli

Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis

  • 1. Chronic infection or recent antibiotic use [4]
  • 2. High risk for MRSA
  • Preferred regimen (1): Linezolid 600 mg IV/PO q12h
  • Preferred regimen (2): Daptomycin 4 mg/kg IV q24h
  • Preferred regimen (3): Vancomycin 15–20 mg/kg IV q8–12h (trough: 10–20 mg/L)
