Our latest podcast is now live!
We chat with @timburgD about the @fido_study - decision making tools in febrile infants.
https://t.co/jxiIY6pjfe
and on all podcast platforms.
Our final podcast of the year is now live as we talk all things febrile infants with @timburgD - lead author of the PERUKI sponsored @fido_study
https://t.co/29vbyoDMDm
Always a pleasure listening to @timburgD discussing @fido_study
His enthusiasm a driving factor in the study’s success
(Worth looking at differences in definitions for febrile infants between countries - can’t be assumed research in one country is applicable to another)
Another one with team PEM MSc @spiroskarageo@helenawilcox27 - How should we assess febrile infants with a positive viral respiratory test?

🚨Clinical decision aids (CDAs) for young febrile infants (0-90 days), conducted in the UK & Ireland..Does it revolutionize practice? Or add to the confusion? 🤔
Let’s dive in! 🧵
Huge day for @fido_study. An incredible project…this is one of many great FIDO publications addressing the importance of safely modernising Febrile infant assessment
@fido_study is a practice changing study. Useful messages:
- re-iterates that not all febrile babies <90 days need lumbar punctures and iv antibiotics
- pro-calcitonin not better than CRP in this population
- cost benefits to #NHS
Exciting! 💥
Performance of clinical decision aids (CDA) for the care of young febrile infants: a multicentre prospective cohort study
AAP and BSAC CDAs were highly sensitive at excluding IBI, with cost saving to hospital services when compared to treat all approach

The FIDO study can help clinician have informed conversion with parents and carers about the care of febrile infants through our findings. Also it offers cost analsysis and peformance of tailored care for instutions and policy makers when making a decision on which CDA to adopt.
