I don't know anyone that is more excited about urine than @Sonali_Advani.

Some highlights from her great talk this morning ⬇️

#IDWeek2022
Lots of factors go into inappropriate culturing.

Physicians more driven by labs, nurses by appearance/smell.

Education can help.

#IDWeek2022
Tough group is the 3rd box.

Yep.

#IDWeek2022
How to approach that 3rd box?

Some options - some of which include some compromises.

#IDWeek2022
UA has too much information.

A urinalysis obtained for renal reasons does not need a WBC to give someone the urge to treat ASB.

#IDWeek2022
Some things to do.

Stop reporting bacteria in UAs.

Nudge to remove catheter.

#IDWeek2022
Patient and nurse expectations important.

We're missing other infections by inappropriately focusing on the urine.

Need to reframe risk - anchoring on the urine leads to lots of problems.

#IDWeek2022
UTI deprescribing framework at Duke.

Nice results.

Also helps get patients on appropriate therapy when they do need antibiotics.

#IDWeek2022
Conclusions from @Sonali_Advani

Great talk.

Getting my own talk from yesterday up late.

Also presented at the Big Beasts session on Community-Acquired Pneumonia.

Focused at stewardship folks but something in here for everyone 👇

#SHEASpring2024

First up, quick definition:
➡️ Since HCAP is now dead, CAP is basically all pneumonia acquired outside of a hospital.

Lots of stuff can cause CAP, but viruses cause a LOT. Any virus that can cause an upper respiratory infection can also cause pneumonia.

Check out this CDC study: when a pathogen was found, #1 cause?

Rhinovirus.

Flu was #2.

Strep pneumo is #3, then 4 more viruses before you hit another bacteria.

(This study is well pre-COVID, but rest assured it would be well represented now).

Next up is Dr. Will Allegria to talk about stewardship in Immunocompromised patients.

This is a complicated patient population.

Many challenges in this patient population, with limited guidelines and data.

Note the specialists (hematology, oncology, transplant) unique to this setting that should be part of the stewardship team. Definitely include transplant ID docs when you have them

Limited data, but does exist.

Covering ASB in renal transplant patients.

Don't treat it! 4 RCTs done, two showed harm.

2021 trial highlighted below, more resistance.

Next up is the Dogmas of stewardship!

Bookmark this thread folks, some great stuff below.

First up is Dr. Jim Lewis.

First up is busting the "cidal vs static" myth. Jim says he is "quoting Noah to Noah" with @IDwithNWD standing by for the next talk, and an author on this excellent paper with @BradSpellberg.

56 Trials!

#SHEASpring2024

What about MRSA pneumonia?

Linezolid and Vancomycin on equal footing.

The "cidal" definition is completely arbitrary, lab based, and irrelevant clinically.

To get my thumbs warmed up for #SHEASpring2024, figured I'd share this talk I forgot to share last month.

Was asked to talk about antibiotic prophylaxis in primary care.

Here's what I came up with:

🧵

#IDTwitter
#MedTwitter

1/ Image
First, one that comes up a lot - should we give antibiotic ppx to prevent recurrent UTIs?

Will first cover older adults - important here: is it truly recurrent UTI?

A lot gets called "UTI" that isn't.

2/
Image
Image
Here's the evidence.

I like the study here from @BRxAD.

Older patients on antibiotic prophylaxis have more side effects, more C diff, more resistance, and go to the hospital MORE than patients on no ppx.

Just got done presenting at the 31st Annual Clinical Update in Geriatric Medicine, put on by @AHNtoday and @UPMC. Awesome attendees, as usual!

Was asked to talk about "Controversies in Antimicrobial Therapy"

Figured would share here.

#IDTwitter #MedTwitter

🧵

1/
With a Geriatric audience, had to take the opportunity to focus first on the urine.

But also get into SSTI, Bactrim for Group A strep, if you need IV antibiotics for Lyme, dental prophylaxis for prosthetic joints, and duration of therapy.

First up - does +UA/UCx=UTI?

2/
Emphatic NO on that one.

Need SYMPTOMS to diagnose a UTI.

I tell patients they need to tell us, we can't tell them.

Positive UCx without symptoms = asymptomatic bacteriuria.

What drives physicians refusing ASP recommendations?

We looked into it.

Just got done presenting our #IDWeek2022 oral abstract.
#IDTwitter

🧵

1/ Image
First, there are a bunch of ways to do TeleASP, but especially the more "intense" models have shown success and can be as good as on-site programs.

Our prior work: academic.oup.com/cid/article/71…

SCORE trial from @E_Stenehjem et al.: academic.oup.com/cid/article/67…

#IDWeek2022

What do we know already about what influences rec acceptance?

Summary of prior work, including great work from @BRxAD - surgeons tend to be less accepting, and recs that reduce antibiotic exposure refused more.
