New in @CIDJournal:
"approximately 40% of patients undergoing a major elective surgery did not receive guideline-adherent antimicrobial prophylaxis, largely due to unnecessary use of vancomycin..."
Any ideas to⬆️guideline adherence? #IDTwitter #TwitteRx

This isn’t news to many but glad that it’s in the guidelines for those who still believe in cross-reactivity between PCN and ceftriaxone (and many other good cephs)

👏👏 extremely clever study confirming (yet again) that contrast nephropathy is a myth.
Robert Goulden@EMrobg
Our new paper in @JAMAInternalMed: is IV contrast nephrotoxic? Lots of studies say no, but have ⬆️risk of confounding: people who get contrast ≠ people who don't get it. We used a natural experiment to try to overcome this bias jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai… 1/5

I think Dr. Hormese's work showed similar results back in March.

@EMPoisonPharmD @___nonsequitur @EDPharmHand @ASHP_EMPharm @accpemedprn @ACCP Very true. Nonetheless, our ~2yr experience since we switched to low-dose is very encouraging and hope will help others who still use a higher dose PCC or Andexxa.

@MaryHormese @___nonsequitur @EDPharmHand @ASHP_EMPharm @accpemedprn @ACCP descriptive data is good, but not powered would mean also not powered to see an effect in either direction correct? If null means outcomes are same w/ each dose then Rejecting null->outcomes could be better OR worse, larger sample could change observation. Still good to report🤷♂️

Super excited about our study comparing high- and low dose 4F-PCC for DOAC reversal! Special shout out to @___nonsequitur @EDPharmHand

@EMPoisonPharmD @___nonsequitur @EDPharmHand @ASHP_EMPharm @accpemedprn @ACCP We didn't have power to show superiority 2/2 small sample, hence kept it as a descriptive analysis. Would have loved to though if we had more patients.
English
@MaryHormese @___nonsequitur @EDPharmHand @ASHP_EMPharm @accpemedprn @ACCP Nice work, haven’t dived into it, was it powered to see difference in outcome w/ low sample size? Either way good effort on trying to measure if dosing strategy impacts things. Hard enough to measure outcomes alone in doac bleeding

More on vaccines. I'm going to get boring and geeky on this (no apologies) on the 10 year thing. Vaccines "normally take 10 years". This is being use as a reason to be fearful (ie rushed job). I'm a clinical trials doc. I can tell you most of that time is spent doing...1/n
English
@garyDpeksa So far no. Esp with the time involved and room constraints in ED. Things might change tho...

I don't know if people realize how incredible a scholar Anthony Fauci is. He has an H-index of 221 (in medicine, >50 or above is highly accomplished, >100 is extraordinary, and >200 is stratospheric, achieved by <100 scholars in the world). His work has been cited 217,943 times.
