While managing #ASPs, we all struggle with too much to do & too little time 🥵…

Appreciate @OFIDJournal allowing us to discuss ideas for improving acute care #ASP efficiency & action!

Curious to hear what other strategies folks use too 🤓

Last but certainly not least, @krutu8 presenting on rapid diagnostics and discordant Candida species results! 41% of institutions noticed discordant Candida results between BCID panel results and gram stain

[ASC-SC @ASC_SCarolina]

Next up, Drs Burch and Campbell are up talking about their ASP work in LTC with @scdhec. It’s a big lift, but they’re going to do some great things in this space.

Shorter LOS, similar mortality with dalba. Practical to use.

@MorganPizzuti up next to talk about transitions of care, particularly around OPAT—bridging the gap between inpatient and outpatient.

[ASC-SC @ASC_SCarolina]

Note utilization of dalbavancin (off label) can revolutionize OPAT in complex patients.

Getting started this afternoon with @BradSpellberg, jumping right in on the power of antibiotics and transitioning directly to what happens when we lose them, with the famous Fleming quote about resistance.

[ASC-SC @ASC_SCarolina]

7 day = Constantine units. 5 days = number of fingers. Maybe we’re better off as sloths 🦥

She brings it home with artificial intelligence, lots of pros/cons
