Welcome to the boards!
Subject: Welcome to the boards!

I don't think you would get slammed for helping, but I have seen people on these boards get slammed for less.  Like the other poster said, you can usually see a pattern with these types of posts.  A lot of times people will ask for more context in order to help them find an answer...and the original poster never returns to answer.  Also, like the other poster said, they rarely say 'thank you'.  Most of us are pretty good about saying thank you when someone gives us advice or help on here.  Asking three or four questions in a row is sometimes an indicator as well, especially when the three or four posts made are for the same exact question.


Welcome to the boards, and just remember to try not to take things too personally.  There will be people at times who will say nasty things just to try to start something or to try to hurt your feelings.  Take it with a grain of salt if this happens.


Good luck to you!

If the dictator is talking about a Holter monitor or an event monitor, then you are correct with transmission. When the patient notices an "event", they press a button and this triggers a transmission report.

Sputum culture of patients at Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok was 49.84% positive for bacterial pathogens in 1994 and 40.95% in 1995. The average incidence of gram-negative rods was 3.11 fold more than the combination of gram-positive cocci and gram-negative cocci. The most common gram-negative rod was Pseudomonas aeruginosa, followed by either Klebsiella pneumoniae or Acinetobacter anitratus depending on year. The most common coccus was Staphylococcus aureus. From both years, the number of Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Burkholderia pseudomallei and Nocardia spp isolated were 122, 93, 13 and 11 strains respectively. For antimicrobial susceptibility, P. aeruginosa was sensitive to ceftazidime, imipenem, gentamicin, amikacin, netilmicin, ciprofloxacin (range 56-89%). S. aureus (MSSA) was sensitive to common used drugs. S. aureus (MRSA) was sensitive to co-trimoxazole, fosfomycin, vancomycin (range 57-100%) and resistant to most drugs.
