Great to see this out: new IDSA guidelines on management of complicated UTI. Listened to excellent @cmicomms.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy podcast with @angelahuttner.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy @erinmccreary.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy @bwtrautner.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy & Valéry Lavergne earlier this year explaining how it was put together! #UTISky #IDSky

Still trying to get my head round what this model is predicting, as usually at least some clinical information is provided with microbiology samples. #AI #IDSky #ClinMicro #UTISky #AMR @bsacandjac.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy academic.oup.com/jac/advance-...

Can't say I've even ever heard of cefdinir, probably cos we can't get it. But maybe we don't want it anyway! 😉 👇 #IDSky #ClinMicro #UTISky

This popped up in my @cmijournal.bsky.social email today. Had read but forgotten about the ImpresU study. Methenamine reduces recurrent UTI but its cessation results in a paradoxical rebound beyond control. Mechanism? 🤔 #IDSky #UTISky www.clinicalmicrobiologyandinfection.org/article/S119...

Somehow forgot to share this post this week. Was fun event, well attended (70+ people!), honour to be asked to present, and expertly chaired by @anniejoseph.bsky.social Onto the next one! 👏 #IDSky #UTISky @escmid.bsky.social

There's going to be more and more of this kind of stuff coming through - #AI (a.k.a. machine learning?) algorithms going up against humans. What's the gold standard though? #UTISky #IDSky academic.oup.com/cid/advance-...

Good study even if the effective intervention not intuitive at first (to me, anyway). Basically, "conditional reflex urine culturing" = not culturing urine samples with WCC <10 👉 less antibiotic use and urine culture requests overall. #IDSky #ClinMicro #AMR #MedSky #UTISky @cidjournal.bsky.social
