Antibiotics versus source control

When you consult ID in a diagnostic challenge

On the origin of antimicrobial regimen durations

The "pan-culture" mindset is out of control (doi.org/10.1093/ofid/o…). Instead of rushing to order BCx and broad-spectrum antibiotics, assess the patient first. Identify the source, establish a diagnosis with targeted tests, and avoid ordering every lab just to figure it out.

If you’re wondering, “But wait, how do I know the pre-test probability for bacteremia in common infectious diseases?” Well, Valeria Fabre covers some of these in this must-read scoping review! academic.oup.com/cid/article/71…

The routine ordering of ESR & CRP should stop. These tests aren’t specific to any particular disease, they can’t differentiate infection from acute/chronic inflammation, and their ability to prognosticate is limited.
