Great thread about the real world experience of procalcitonin to guide IV antis in children. Low compliance with the algorithm, with a test that also disrupted routine workflow. Diagnostic stewardship requires careful implementation design.

Interesting study on role of PCT in the stewardship of IV antibiotics for children admitted for suspected / confirmed bacterial infections. Does not appear helpful in reducing time on IV Abx in this setting. #IDSky #AMR #AMSsky #pediatrics www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

#AMR is a risk to antibiotic failure & death, but if this happens, do we record it on death certificates? Our centre data = NO! 👉In 1 year, 4% of deaths were AMR-attributed & NONE were recorded on death certificates!👈 Need to quantify this better to increase awareness! #IDSky @jac-amr.bsky.social

12/ A better understanding of the complex interactions influencing whether/how/ why clinicians act on test results to make antibiotic prescribing decisions will improve trial intervention fidelity and facilitate implementation and scale-up of tests shown to be effective.

2/ The BATCH trial was a pragmatic, multicentre, open-label, individually randomised, controlled trial conducted in 15 hospitals in England and Wales between June 2018, and Oct 2022.

#AtTheEquatorUG #MILK teams have been enjoying producing more social media content since we hosted a photography and film workshop some months back. This is one reason why (and yes, the high consequence pathogens unit is in a beautiful part of Uganda!) www.tiktok.com/@catriona.wa...

Why on earth should a midlife clinical academic start using TikTok? Because science really matters, to everyone. #attheequatorug

There is something so beautiful about sunrise - a new morning, new hope. And so my first post on this platform, during my morning run at #TropMed24. It's an intense conference - I wonder whether you have top tips for people attending large meetings for the first time? #AtTheEquatorUG

This is a really super blog about the 'grief' that patients and families bring when they engage in healthcare research, and what that means for everyone involved. Interested to hear others thoughts on this? #safetysky #patientsafety Thanks @kellieocallaghan.bsky.social for sharing!
