Prophylactic antibiotics Antibiotics given to prevent infection. Nursing Assessment Before Antimicrobial Therapy Includes history of current infection, medication history, physical examination, and psychosocial assessment. Nursing Assessment During Antimicrobial Therapy Includes monitoring for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, allergies, nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, ototoxicity, and blood dyscrasias. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea Common adverse effects referred to as the 'big three' during antimicrobial therapy. Allergies and anaphylaxis Reactions that can occur within 30 minutes to days after administration of antibiotics. Nephrotoxicity Characterized by increasing BUN/creatinine, decreasing urine output, and changes in UA. Hepatotoxicity Requires assessment for preexisting hepatic disease and monitoring of liver enzymes. Ototoxicity Damage to the eighth cranial nerve that can lead to hearing loss. Implementation Precautions Includes monitoring for infection transmission and phlebitis when given IV.

Monitor for phlebitis A precaution when administering antibiotics intravenously. Blood dyscrasias Conditions that require monitoring for sore throat, fatigue, elevated temperature, skin hemorrhages, and bruises.
