    Summary: Covering all aspects of gynecology commonly encountered in day-to-day practice, this exhaustive work provides a practical, one-stop reference work for clinicians working in the field. This carefully-designed volume includes ten sections, beginning with comprehensive coverage of office-based gynecology, and continuing on to present disease processes and management information by patient age group. Each chapter includes background information, current recommendations for screening, diagnostic criteria, common and uncommon associated problems, approach to diagnosis, summary of treatment options, and an overview of ICD-9/10 codes for specific diagnoses. The handbook concludes with an easy-to-navigate presentation of minimally-invasive operations, surgical procedures, neoplasms, and pathology. Advantages and risks associated with management of particular diseases are covered, along with multiple tips for avoiding complications. Edited by experts and presenting the most recent developments in gynecological practice, The Handbook of Gynecology is an invaluable reference for OB/GYNs, family medicine and internal medicine clinicians, medical students, residents, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and other healthcare providers.

    Cephalosporins are being given more and more frequently empirically as initial therapy, until the bacteriological findings become available. The wide selection of cephalosporins available make the choice of the most suitable one difficult for the clinician. Cephazolin, cephradine and cephacetrile were tested against three standard bacteria strains (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Kelebsiella pneumoniae) in normal broth and with the addition of 30% inactivated human serum; the geometric mean of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by serial dilution, and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) by inoculation onto solid medium. On the addition of 30% serum, cephazolin showed a reduction in effectivity of up to 360% for the MIC and up to 74% for the MBC, cephacetril up to 250% for the MIC and 100% for the MBC, and cephradin a maximum loss of 16%. Successful treatment of a severe infection requires a high drug level or a corresponding tissue titer. Due to the high tissue concentration of cephradin and the unrivalled stable antibacterial effectivity in serum, this antibiotic can be recommended for clinical use.
