I enjoy being an #InfectiousDiseases pharmacist because I am part of a multidisciplinary team and all the collaborative opportunities that are available. Happy #IDPharmacistsDay
Today, on Infectious Diseases Pharmacists Day (May 22 in the US), we take a moment in Australia to recognise the remarkable contributions of our own ID pharmacists.
Your expertise is vital to the safe and effective management of infectious diseases across our healthcare system.

Multiple challenges associated with AMR testing of Gm-negative bacteria - may result in over-reporting of resistance rates (e.g cefiderocol) potentially denying patients optimal treatment options, or under-reporting with life-threatening consequences - Prof Christian Giske #Antimicrobials2025 #AMR

Giske: beware using Cefiderocol discs in MBL strains - many isolates are S by MIC but in ATU (uncertain) on disc, resulting in over-calling of resistance.
