@BradSpellberg @LauraMarks5 We use A LOT in Chile, mainly in Staph osteomyelitis/PJI, and transition from bacteremia. Probably most used oral cephalosporin.

@BradSpellberg @DrToddLee @ABsteward @emedfocus Descending bacteriuria in bacteremia is a very interesting point! When talking to the intensivist, how do you phrase it to convince them? Suppose GN bacteremia with positive UA/UC to the same agent and no other source in CT. How do you explain it to the ICU team? Do they believe?

@venkat_id @BradSpellberg @DrToddLee Considering its disposition in chains, do you still use vancomycin? b-lactam resistance in streptococci is exceedingly rare en my country. O is it because MRSA risk still significant due to the negative culture.

@hernan_sr @grok que opinas de el lenguaje corporal de ella

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@IdVilchez @BradSpellberg @DrToddLee @ABsteward This used to be the most frequent phenotype for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales in my country. After COVID-19, MBLs have displaced these isolates.

@DrToddLee @ImBigPharma @BradSpellberg Thank you! I think we can do something close to this with CPE and CP-Pseudomonas

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@DrToddLee @ImBigPharma @BradSpellberg We're collecting our data because of the high rate of carbapenemase-producing gram-negative colonization and infection. A humble single-center latinamerican retrospective study.

Could you share your MRSA paper? I would live an inspiring paper to improve our methods

@DrToddLee @ImBigPharma @BradSpellberg That's every Tuesday for us

@BradSpellberg at the annual meeting of the Grupo Colaborativo contra la Resistencia Bacteriana in Chile

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@DrToddLee @BradSpellberg @ABsteward @DrEmilyMcD Like it

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@BradSpellberg @DrToddLee Do you think the lower potential of penicillins to select for ESBLs could outweigh the affordability of ceftriaxone?

Fui a esterilizar a mi gato y cuando lo fui a buscar me estaban pasando otro gato.
Lo que pasó es que mi wawa de llama Ramón y me estaban pasando a un Román que incluso era del mismo color.
Muy Talca la situación.

@ABsteward @Wiki_Guidelines @JAMANetworkOpen @zacroBID @amenalor @BradSpellberg @DrToddLee @DrEmilyMcD @JAMA_current @JAMAInternalMed @InfectiousDz Great work! Did you discuss the MV140 sublingual vaccine as a preventive measure for recurrent UTIs? Thanks for your excellent work—greetings from Chile!

@TBrnaughtTB It is critical to get at least the species and, ideally, antimicrobial susceptibility. If impossible, I would go with 4 drugs, including azythro.

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@ABsteward @TheLancetInfDis @COMBACTE Very important pivotal to get aztreonam/avibactam approved, but not really contributing new information for MBL GNB

[Patricio Ross @parossp]

@TBrnaughtTB Azithro + TMP/SMX + Linezolid

@treyesb Lo canguros no son como esperaba
