Recent Enterobacterales literature shows oral therapy is non-inferior to IV, and shorter durations are non-inferior to longer ones for uncomplicated BSIs. This study highlights real-world variability in the application of new literature & treatment of Enterobacterales BSIs. doi.org/10.1017/ash....

How long should we treat uncomplicated P. aeruginosa BSIs? Here’s a thread on the evidence we’ve got 👇🏻

What's the best duration for treating uncomplicated P. aeruginosa-BSI?
This metaanalysis of observational studies (n=1746)
found no differences in recurrence+mortality for short (<10d) compared to prolonged treatments.

It’s encouraging to see new guidelines moving toward shorter and fully-oral treatments for BSIs.
We are honoured to see some of our research cited to help shape these recommendations! 😃

Safety of early oral ambulatory treatment of adult patients with bloodstream infections discharged from the emergency department | Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
Randomized trials have unanimously shown the benefits of oral antibiotic treatments for stable patients with bacteremia (1). However, transition to oral therapy has been usually performed after several days of intravenous treatment—frequently up to 7 days (2)—highlighting the need for evidence of the safety of earlier oral treatments (3).

#OTILT When de-escalating to an oral antibiotic for definitive treatment of gram-negative BSIs, agents with high bioavailability, such as ciprofloxacin, may be preferred.
This study found higher risk of treatment failure when less bioavailable agents, such as beta-lactams, were used.
