🚨 New #Breakpoints episode out today! It was a pleasure to talk all things microbiome-related 🦠 💩 w/ @kristadgens.bsky.social & Dr. Javier Villafuerte Gálvez. 👇🏻Link below! And that infographic is oh so cute ☺️ @sidpharm.bsky.social

@glaucomflecken.bsky.social hitting close to home with this ID doc at the soccer game.... Reflexively, I couldn't help screaming in my head...don't put DEET on the net, only use permethrin on clothing!! #IDSky www.youtube.com/shorts/Q8UGF...

IV fosfo finally FDA approved in US for cUTI d/t E. coli or Kleb pneumo. -How much will it cost? -Folks willing to use it for Kleb (or other Enterobacterales) in the absence of CLSI BPs? -Dose: 6G IV q8h…Tolerability in real-world? 🤔 Lots of questions to consider…. #IDSky #AMSsky

I had this idea basically live on @sidpharm.bsky.social breakpoints podcast with @juliejusto.bsky.social and @brainofbpharm.bsky.social and here it is! Another tool in our stewardship toolbox (thinking about single use plastics!)

It’s out! IDSA #cUTI guidelines 7/17/25. Now the fun begins….😌 #IDsky #AMSsky @idsainfo.bsky.social @sidpharm.bsky.social www.idsociety.org/practice-gui...

Took a minute to get this project out, and while it’s not groundbreaking that IE rates went up with the opioid crisis…we need more guidelines updates, to help our colleagues who don’t have access to ID doctors…we need patient centered outcomes. @juliejusto.bsky.social @sarahecbattle.bsky.social

the first ever @sidpharm.bsky.social and @escmid.bsky.social PK PD workshop is in full swing and it’s AMAZING so many brilliant minds in this room with the highest quality presentations #idsky #medsky #amssky

For those wondering if SNAP and CloCeBa are relevant to nafcillin & oxacillin…still need to read in full but interesting top line findings. #IDSky #AMSsky #PharmSky

Honored that @juliejusto.bsky.social @amyhcrockett.bsky.social and @priyanori.bsky.social work in maternal sepsis and the role ID can play was mentioned at #SHEASpring2025 …we can focus on the things we can affect in these chaotic times (like updating guidelines and caring for patients with EBM!)

What a great experience 🤗 to collaborate on this review of abx in MSK infxns with @cortes-penfield.bsky.social, @erinmccreary.bsky.social, & @jonathanrydermd.bsky.social! Link below ⬇️🤓 #IDSky

EUCAST updates #ESCMIDglobal 1. Strep pneumonia updated algorithm: Use oxacillin disk, if >20mm then report A to all beta lactams. If <20mm read benpen 1 unit disk. Great presentation showing data behind and how well differentiates S/I/R

@steventong.bsky.social presents the results of the PSSA domain of the SNAP 🫰 trial - the worlds largest trial of staph aureus bacteremia - at #ESCMID2025 fluclox resulted in higher mortality and more AKI compared to penicillin for PSSA

A reminder that SNAP results to be presented at #ESCMIDGlobal at: 'A trial run' 4.15-6.15 pm Hall 13 PSSA - (flu)clox vs benzylpenicillin MSSA - (flu)clox vs cefazolin LOTs of time for questions! Drinks right next to convention centre after: maps.app.goo.gl/Fc3WwH5aavrR...

Looking for the hot trials that may change your practice at #ESCMIDGlobal2025? Dr. @steventong.bsky.social has you covered as he shares findings from the #SNAP Trial 💊 Among 281 pts w/ PCN-susceptible S. aureus BSI, compared to flucloxacillin, benzylpenicillin had lower 90-day mortality & less AKI

We wrote this before "women" was banned from NIH grant applications. It's a clarion call for actions in patient care and ongoing research to deliver safe and effective healthcare. This team @juliejusto.bsky.social @priyanori.bsky.social @amyhcrockett.bsky.social😍🤩 bit.ly/3Rw1KkJ

#OPAT folks: strategy of SC abx, esp conc-dependent ones like BLs, makes a lot of sense to me. 50 mL admin. as SC sounds like a lot tho. Curious to hear how pts truly tolerate this real-world… Worth keeping an eye on this research. 🧐📉 #IDsky #Pharmsky @sidpharm.bsky.social @mmpharmd.bsky.social
