Dr. Hannah Imlay, assistant professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases, has been awarded the Internal Medicine Fellow's Faculty Teaching Award. 🎉 This is awarded each year to one faculty member, who is nominated and presented by fellows.
Congratulations, Dr. Imlay! #uofu
Kudos to @JessieLSeidel for spearheading the MMUSKIT study on fracture-related infection, amazing partnership from @laura_certain and #AlainaRitter! https://t.co/t0oXzXElgC
@laura_certain, @R_Benefield: “Once more, with feeling”: Using a propensity-matched cohort, researchers demonstrated equivalence between IV and PO antibiotics for orthopedic infections, adding another nail in the coffin of old dogma. https://t.co/0Oxqtjedyj
🆕️⚡️“Once more, with feeling”:
no difference in outcomes between patients discharged on oral versus intravenous antibiotics for orthopedic infections in a propensity score matched cohort at a US medical center. #IDXposts@laura_certain

Happy to share our latest, out today in mBio. We treated a patient with phage therapy and because of their willingness to participate in our research, we studied what happened throughout their medical journey. Congrats to @MadisonStellfox and co-authors! https://t.co/AicswwGhKm
A good reminder that it can be ok to stop antibiotics after a year for PJI treated with DAIR, even for "sticky" bugs. Though in this case if the vascular graft had been proven to be infected then I probably wouldn't have been brave enough to stop chronic amox.
What to do when faced with bilateral hematogenous PJI, bug that is difficult to treat, and no possibility of source control? This case report discusses some creative solutions. #orthotwittter@DrAntoniaChen@EmanueleChisari@laura_certain

🆕️🔥Retrospective multicentre cohort study of PJI
Exclusive oral antibiotic therapy or with ≤3 d of IV Abx for 6 weeks was associated with a similar rate of management failure after surgery ompared with other antibiotic therapy options @BradSpellberg https://t.co/YGf7Wjmc9C
Thank you to our current listeners! We are working on new episodes! Ideas for future episodes? Let us know! Listen on apple/spotify/coneymed! #orthotwitter#infectiousdisease#podcast#pji
Would you inject steroids into a prosthetic knee? This database study from @CedarsSinaiMed found ⬆️ risk of PJI and revision TKA in pts who had undergone ipsilateral knee steroid injection w/in 1y of TKA. #orthotwitter@AlexisGaskin32@pjamiesonkay

@Cortes_Penfield And now I'm wondering, is the gender for the brand name ever different from the gender for the generic version of the same drug? Like, LA daptomicina but EL Cubicin? I would think so.
