| guideline | A set of statements, directions, or principles presenting current or future rules or policy. Guidelines may be developed by government agencies at any level, institutions, organizations such as professional societies or governing boards, or by the convening of expert panels. The text may be cursive or in outline form, but it is generally a comprehensive guide to problems and approaches in any discipline or activity. This concept relates to the general conduct and administration of health care activities rather than to specific decisions for a particular clinical condition. For that aspect, practice guideline is available. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| guideline adherence | Conformity in fulfilling or following official, recognised, or institutional requirements, guidelines, recommendations, protocols, pathways, or other standards. (12 Dec 1998) |
| clasp guideline | A line scribed on an abutment tooth of a dental cast by means of a dental surveyor indicating the height of contour of the tooth according to a specific path of insertion, a line which serves as a guide in the proper location of various parts of a clasp assembly for a removable partial denture. Synonym: clasp guideline, Cummer's guideline. (05 Mar 2000) |

| practice guideline | A set of directions or principles to assist the health care practitioner with patient care decisions about appropriate diagnostic, therapeutic, or other clinical procedures for specific clinical circumstances. Practice guidelines may be developed by government agencies at any level, institutions, organizations such as professional societies or governing boards, or by the convening of expert panels. They can provide a foundation for assessing and evaluating the quality and effectiveness of health care in terms of measuring improved health, reduction of variation in services or procedures performed, and reduction of variation in outcomes of health care delivered.

| antibiotic | <pharmacology> A chemical substance produced by a microorganism which has the capacity, in dilute solutions, to inhibit the growth of or to kill other microorganisms. Antibiotics that are sufficiently nontoxic to the host are used as chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of infectious diseases of man, animals and plants. Origin: Gr. Bios = life (18 Nov 1997) |
| antibiotic assay | <investigation> A test to determine how sensitive a bacterial or fungal strain is to arange of antibiotics bymeasuring the microbes' ability to grow in astandard dilution of each chemical. (09 Oct 1997) |
| antibiotic enterocolitis | Enterocolitis caused by oral administration of broad spectrum antibiotics, resulting from overgrowth of antibiotic-resistant staphylococci or yeasts and fungi, when the normal faecal Gram-negative organisms are suppressed, resulting in diarrhoea or pseudomembranous disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antibiotic eye drops | <pharmacology> A medication that is pH balanced to allow placement into the eye for the purpose of killing bacteria. Examples include: Bleph-10, Chloromycetin, Cortisporin-Ophthalmic, Gantrisin, Genoptic, Gentacidin, Garamycin, Gantrisin, Ilotycin, Sodium Sulamyd and Sulphair. (27 Sep 1997) |
| antibiotic induced enteritis | <pathology> A condition where the normal intestinal bacteria (useful for digestion) are killed by the use of an antibiotic resulting in symptoms. (27 Sep 1997) |
| antibiotic induced gastroenteritis | <pathology> A condition where the normal intestinal bacteria (useful for digestion) are killed by the use of an antibiotic resulting in symptoms. (27 Sep 1997) |
| antibiotic ointment | A ointment (or cream) based medication that kills bacteria. Examples include Neosporin, Bactroban, Garamycin, bacitracin, gentamicin, mupirocin, neomycin, silver sulphasalazine, chloramphenicol and clindamycin. (27 Sep 1997) |
| antibiotic prophylaxis | Use of antibiotics before, during, or after a diagnostic, therapeutic, or surgical procedure to prevent infectious complications. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibiotic resistance | The ability of a bacterium tosynthesise a protein that neutralises an antibiotic. (09 Oct 1997) |
| antibiotic resistance gene | Genes in a microorganism which confer resistance to antibiotics, for example by coding for enzymes which destroy it, by coding for surface proteins which prevent it from entering the microorganism, or by being a mutant form of the antibiotic's target so that it can ignore it.
