  1. THE ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE CRISIS

  2. THE ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE CRISIS • HISTORY OF BACTERIA • HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS • RESISTANCE • THE PROBLEM NOW • NEVADANS FOR ANTIBIOTIC AWARENESS

  3. HISTORY OF BACTERIA BACTERIA HAVE BEEN AROUND LONGER THAN ANY LIVING THING ON EARTH. FOSSIL EVIDENCE DATES BACK 3.5 BILLION YEARS.

  4. HISTORY OF BACTERIA EARTH AS A DAY: 5:00 AM - BACTERIA APPEAR 10:00 PM - DINOSAURS APPEAR 11:59 PM - HUMANS APPEAR

  5. HISTORY OF BACTERIA REPRODUCTION BINARY FISSION CLONE OF ORIGINAL WITH SAME DNA FAST PROCESS ONE BACTERIUM CAN PRODUCE ONE BILLION CLONES IN TEN HOURS

  6. HISTORY OF BACTERIA REPRODUCTION MUTATION A CHANGE, SO THAT THE “NEW” BACTERIA IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN THE ORIGINAL

  7. HISTORY OF BACTERIA REPRODUCTION IF THE ENVIRONMENT IS RIGHT, THE “NEW” BACTERIA MAY SURVIVE BETTER AND REPRODUCE, PASSING ALONG THE MUTATION

  8. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS 1928 – DR. FLEMING DISCOVERS PENICILLIN FROM BREAD MOLD 1944 – U.S. MILITARY TAKES PENICILLIN TO THE BATTLEFIELD 1945 – BACTERIA WITH RESISTANCE TO PENICILLIN ISOLATED

  9. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE 1960s – METHICILLIN INTRODUCED 1991 – 29% OF STAPH AUREUS RESISTANT 2001 – 62% OF STAPH AUREUS RESISTANT

  10. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE BACTERIA MUTATE TO PROTECT THEMSELVES FROM ANTIBIOTICS

  11. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE THE MUTATED BACTERIA SURVIVE AFTER THE ANTIBIOTICS ARE GONE

  12. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE EVENTUALLY THERE ARE MORE ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT BACTERIA THAN NON-RESISTIANT

  13. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE THE MUTATED BACTERIA REPRODUCE, PASSING ALONG THE RESISTANCE TO THEIR OFFSPRING

  14. HISTORY OF ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE BACTERIA CAN ALSO SWAP GENES, UNDER THE RIGHT CONDITIONS, SO DRUG-RESISTANT GERMS CAN SHARE THEIR RESISTANCE MECHANISMS

  15. THE PROBLEM NOW 1991 1999 2000 2001 1991 1999 2000 2001

  16. THE PROBLEM NOW 2000 2001 2000 2001

  17. THE PROBLEM NOW > 50% OF HOSPITAL ACQUIRED BLOODSTREAM INFECTIONS ARE CAUSED BY METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPH AUREUS (MRSA) > 70% OF NURSING HOME STAPH INFECTIONS ARE CAUSED BY MRSA

  18. THE PROBLEM NOW “THERE ARE PATIENTS TODAY IN HOSPITALS FOR WHOM THERE ARE NO EFFECTIVE THERAPIES.” Gary Doern Director of Clinical Microbiology University of Iowa
