Had to share the cookies we got for #USAAW22! Giving these to providers tomorrow along with antibiotic “facts and myths” to promote #Antimicrobialawarenessweek. We may give unsolicited advice but at least it comes with cookies, right?! 🤣🍪

“Unfortunately, I think the problem of antibiotic resistance is going to get worse before it gets better. I worry that my grandchildren won’t have access to effective #antibiotics.” @JasonGNewland on the urgent need for new antibiotics. #USAAW24 pew.org/4fkfOYQ

"Based on available evidence from 30 RCTs....topical estrogen is effective at reducing recurrent UTIs in postmenopausal women." WHY IS NOT EVERY POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN ON THE PLANET OFFERED VAGINAL ESTROGEN FOR UTI PREVENTION??!! 30 Randomized controlled trials! THIRTY!
JAMA Network Open@JAMANetworkOpen

This consensus statement creates a clinical guideline for the diagnosis and management of UTIs that addresses the gap between the evidence and recommendation strength. ja.ma/3UBBW90 @bradspellberg

Proposed assessment framework for patients with suspected UTI who live in long-term care facilities from @Wiki_Guidelines ⭐No more urinalysis or urine culture simply for altered mental state/smelly urine/cloudy urine ⭐If other causes of fever are present, skip the urine tests

Things I do not care about when discussing UA's and urine cultures: ❌Pyuria/Leuk esterase + ❌Nitrites ❌Bacteria on microscopy ❌Growth of bacteria on cultures Things I do care about: ✅SYMPTOMS Everything else is just asymptomatic bacteriuria! #IDTwitter #MedTwitter

Long-acting cabotegravir-rilpivirine (CAB-RPV) is the biggest advance in HIV therapeutics in years. Here's a brief explainer why, and a killer classic movie clip. (Next up -- the limitations of this groundbreaking treatment, because there are plenty.) blogs.jwatch.org/hiv-id-observa…

Conference abstracts accepted, but no publications?  It's a common story for residency research projects. As someone who'd experienced it 6 times... these are the reasons why many residency projects go NOWHERE.  Brace yourself, because it's time for some tough love.

You can help free up nursing time by converting IV antibiotics to PO. Save 1 hr by changing an IV q8h antibiotic to PO! Consider a point prevalence analysis at your hospital to see how much time could be saved if 10% of courses were changed to PO! #ISAS23 @jpogue1 #IDTwitter

With the latest CLSI breakpoints, tobramycin is the only reliable aminoglycoside for Pseudomonas if you ever need one (Susceptible: MIC ≤1) Amikacin: can still be used for UTI (Susceptible: MIC ≤ 16) Gentamicin: RIP ☠️
