Yes, Viridian Streptocci, Cornyebacterium, Baccilus and Propionbacterium are all causal microbes for endocarditis.
No, none of the microbes present are causal to endocarditis
No, Virdians Streptoccci and Propionbacterium are from the pt’s oral Flora
Yes, Viridian Streptocci is a causal microbe of endocarditis. Corynebacterium, Baccilus and Propionbacterium are all part of the pt’s skin Flora

Within 72hrs. Results will contain gram stain analysis, bacterial antigen analysis, viral antigen analysis and susceptibility study
Within 1hr. Results will contain gram stain analysis and bacterial antigen analysis
Within 2-4 hrs. Results will contain gram stain analysis and bacterial antigen analysis
Using a swab, collect specimen from inferior tongue
Using a saline washing, ask the pt to spit into a collection cup
Using a swab, collect specimen from nasopharynx
Using an aerobic blood culture tube, instruct medics to draw blood from right or left medial cubital vein
The nurse should use a swab and collect the specimen from the pt’s throat
The nurse should use a swab and collect the specimen from the pt’s nasopharynx
The nurse should retrieve a sputum culture from the intubated pt.
The nurse should utilize bronchiolavage fluid to retrieve a specimen
Utilizing a catheter, retrieve specimen from the pt and run a urine culture
Obtain a “clean catch” urine specimen from the pt and run a urine culture
Obtain a wet mount specimen and perform a saline wet prep microscopy
Utilizing a swab, obtain a specimen from the pt’s external uretheral meatus and run a urine culture
Obtain a “Clean Catch” specimen in a urine collection cup
Obtain a blood culture set from the pt
Utilizing a urethral swab, obtain specimen from the pt
Utilizing a saline wet prep, perform a quantitative urine analysis on the pt’s urine.
Yes, if the pt is engaging in unprotected coitus, he may possibly be spreading an infection
Yes, the lab will provide antibiotic resistance panel to accompany the culture to determine if the microbe present in the pt is resistant to specific antibiotics
No, it is obvious the pt is suffering from gonorrhea and should be administered antibiotics ASAP
No, it is obvious the pt is suffering from gonorrhea and should be administered antibiotics ASAP
Collect a stool sample and run a stool culture
Collect a stool sample and run a toxin assay
Collect a stool sample and run a fecal smear
Obtain a blood culture set from the pt and run a culture for C. Difficile
Viruses require living cells and must be transported in a Viral Transport Medium with antibiotics/antifungals
Viruses must be transported via a dark collection tube as they are anaerobic
Viruses must be transported via a collection tube which contains a 10% saline solution
Viruses do not require special considerations
There is no such thing as a BSL3 equipped lab for mycobacteria.
As TB is diurnal and is most active in the evening, collect a sputum sample after 2000
Mycobacterial specimens are best when collected in the morning
Mycobacterial specimens are best when collected after the pt eats
Parasitic stool collections require a living host
Parasitic stool collections contain KOH in order to eliminate non-parasitic particles
Parasitic stool collections contain antibiotics/antifungals in order to best
Parasitic stool collections contain preservatives
