SHEA Podcasts

In this episode of The SHEA Podcast, SHEA Journal Club Chair and moderator Hannah Imlay is joined by guests Jennifer Cihlar and David Cluck to discuss two of the most impactful articles reviewed by the journal club this year. The first article, "Bacteremia From a Presumed Urinary Source in Hospitalized Adults With Asymptomatic Bacteriuria" by Advani SD, Ratz D, Horowitz JK, et al., examines the clinical implications of asymptomatic bacteriuria in hospitalized adults. The second article, "Identifying Effective Durations of Antibiotic Therapy for the Treatment of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales Bloodstream Infections: A Multicenter Observational Study" by Soto CL, Hsu AJ, Lee JH, et al., explores optimal antibiotic treatment durations for these challenging infections. Join us for an in-depth discussion on the findings and clinical impacts of these studies.
