INDICES> Intrathecal - intraventricular administration of antibiotics (2)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am afraid that the idea of administering antibiotics intrathecally for 
meningitis is fundamentally wrong because meningococcal 
infections are primarily systemic infections, and the meningeal 
infection is just one local manifestation.
