cellulitis in MRSA carriers is often strep...
erythematous? think strep; purulence? think staph
don't treat MRSA colonization, treat the infection & clinical status
need anti-MRSA? also consider doxy or TMP-SMX PO to preserve IV vanco #MedEd

aspiration pneumonitis resolves in 24-48h; if symptoms persist >48h, treat aspiration pneumonia with CTX
CTX covers key oral anaerobes (eg Peptostreptococcus) so extended anaerobe coverage is usually unnecessary
avoid piptaz first-line & reserve for resistant cases
Standard 14d treatments for exacerbations lack good evidence support.
This small RCT favors shorter durations such as 8d 👉🏻 publications.ersnet.org/content/erj/... #IDsky @bradspellberg.bsky.social

If vancomycin covers both strep and staph, why not use it alone? Let’s dive in! 🧵 #medsky #pharmsky #EMsky #MedEd #IDsky #AMSky #nursesky
We hope to generate actionable data to guide the management of Pseudomonas BSI also in this population! 💪🏼

Short treatments are feasible in early responders without source control issues.
A significant number of observational studies serve as proof-of-concept on the feasibility of short courses in selected patients (see ⚠️)
