  2. The hardest challenge in stewardship remains.... the people (#doctors)!

    You provide point-of-care measures of bacterial infection (Biofire & PCT measurements) for patients with respiratory infection, and.... no difference in antibiotic consumption. 🤷

  6. Elderly and catheterized patients have a high incidence of asymptomatic bacteriuria. Abnormal UA in asymptomatic patient does NOT necessarily require treatment.

  7. Symptoms that do NOT warrant investigation for #UTI include change in the color, odor, or consistency of the urine

  8. When medical visits are shorter, patients more likely to get unneeded antibiotics

    Even as a young #pediatric resident in the 1980s it became obvious to me that it was much quicker to write an #antibiotic Rx than to explain to patients/parents why an antibiotic wasn’t needed. Sadly, too many beleaguered providers choose the former. #healthcare #AntimicrobialStewardship #PatientCare #AntibioticOveruse #medicine

  9. Infectious disease forecasting is vital for epidemic and pandemic preparedness – but current models leave something to be desired. Could incorporating genetics, genomics, and phylodynamics close the accuracy gap?

  10. Age old argument. Most isolates susceptible to tebipenem because it's not available.

    Will it stay that way if licensed and prescribed freely in the community?

  16. Once a week rezafungin therapy for candidaemia and invasive candidiasis.

    Looks mostly non - inferior to caspofungin.

    But do we need once a week antifungal therapy? Most of these patients need close observation - look at mortality below. (tho there will rare exceptions for whom this is the perfect drug).

  19. My belated #introduction (1/5):

    My career at BJC HealthCare / BJH included #antimicrobialstewardship; #infectiousdiseases #pharmacotherapy; #vaccines; #medicationsafety; patient care; #teaching; research; administrative stuff.

    Former editor BJH Tool Book on the #Dorsata platform.

    Still doing human research review with the #IRB and #genetherapy studies review with the IBC at WUSM.

    Lastly in addition to science, I believe in democracy, the important role of journalism, and a round Earth.
