Another game changer in ortho ID from the group that brought you OVIVA

Pts with ortho infections who underwent curative surgery (no DAIR) with local implantation of abx were randomized to <=7d vs >=4w ABx

No Dif in 12 mo relapse

I have seen too much cefepime delirium/encephalopathy in the hospitalized elderly, so I try to avoid it unless it’s absolutely necessary. New study shows cefepime is associated with higher all-cause mortality vs comparator antibiotics #IDSky

Now that we 2 endocarditis guidelines recommending TEE before switch to PO- is there any data on the percentage of pts meeting clinical stability criteria for whom a follow up/pre-switch echo resulted in decision to continue IV or surgery?
