Studies in adults support the use of a negative methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nares screening (MNS) to help limit empiric anti-MRSA antibiotic therapy. We aimed evaluate MNS for de-escalation hospitalized children (<18 years). Records patients admitted between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2020 with presumed infectious diagnosis who were started on antibiotics, had PCR-based MNS, clinical culture performed retrospectively reviewed. A total 95 included median age (range)...
A 2-month-old male with failure to thrive and respiratory symptoms was found have bilateral pneumonia secondary Mycobacterium abscessus . M. pulmonary infections mainly been noted in immunocompromised children; prior reports presented similarly, though our patient is unique given the young age of presentation lack diagnosed immunodeficiency or underlying disease.
Abstract Background Antibiotics with activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are frequently started empirically in children diagnosed osteomyelitis. At our institution clinicians increasingly obtain at time of admission a PCR-based staphylococcal nares screen (SNS) which can differentiate methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and MRSA. We aimed to evaluate the utility SNS for antibiotic optimization pediatric inpatients Methods A retrospective chart review was conducted...
Introduction: Asthma is one of the leading causes pediatric hospitalization and affects nearly 10% American children. Significant efforts have gone into improving asthma care by enhancing use evidence-based guidelines. Despite these guidelines, significant practice variation overuse resources still exist.

Abstract Background Empirical antibiotic regimens frequently include treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Studies in adults with pneumonia support the use of a negative MRSA nares screening (MNS) to help de-escalate therapy. Comparable pediatric data literature is scarce. We aimed evaluate MNS de-escalation hospitalized children (&lt; 18 years) at tertiary children’s hospital. Methods A retrospective chart review was conducted inpatients (January 01, 2015...
