Attended my first SHEA conference and wow, what a fantastic and inspiring group of people and presentations.

Thank you to @sheaepi.bsky.social for choosing me as one of your international ambassadors this year, and to my fellow IAPs.

Hope to be back again in the near future!

Even more evidence that we should put our efforts on unrestricted antibiotics - high volume of use with low rates of appropriateness! @cazchen.bsky.social compares 2023 #NAPS and #NAUSP data

What a way to wrap up Day 1 of #ASA2025 with our Director Prof Kas Thursky delivering the prestigious Howard Florey Oration. We’re so proud to be a part of her visionary work pioneering #AMS in Australia and internationally and driving the field forward.

So many reasons why appropriate IV to oral switch is important for AMS and patient care. Amongst them, the considerable time savings, amplified across a whole patient cohort are substantial. Thanks @nikhil-singh.bsky.social for a great presentation at #ASA2025

A national audit of 200 hospitals showed ongoing poor prescribing in surgical prophylaxis, in particular with extended durations of post-operative prophylaxis.

We spell it cefazolin here too in Australia ☺️ - they all changed about 8 years ago to be spelled with an ‘f’.

Hi #IDSky! I’m putting together my usual top 10 ID papers of this year list again (this time will post here not in the other world).

Please tell me your candidate papers - practice changing paradigm shifting or dogma challenging!
