Best #FOAMed Finds – Out of Lockdown!

Our new contributor, Matt Bigwood, takes his pick of the best and has compiled this newsblog with me, so massive thanks to him. Much more to come from Matt too!

As we start to tentitively emerge from this situation, we thought we would refresh your palates with some fresh material!

There MAY just be a little on COVID here, but we tried to scope the rest of life as well!

We hope you and your families are well…..onward!

Top Papers!

JW’s Top Paper!

From my good friend Matt Rowland et al and befitting the whole controversy over this topic nicely! Well done team!

Bottom Liners!

Our friends at The Bottom Line take us through some of their picks:

Hung

In adult patients with COVID-19, does combined interferon beta-1b, lopinavir–ritonavir, and ribavirin, compared with lopinavir-ritonavir alone, reduce the time to a negative swab result?

FABLED

In patients with severe sepsis what is the sensitivity of blood cultures taken after the initiation of antimicrobial therapy?

NON-SEDA

In critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients, does a strategy of no sedation, as compared with light sedation with daily sedation breaks, impact day 90 mortality?

Pandemic Triage

In the event of a viral pandemic, what effect does the use of a triage protocol (specifically the NSW ICU triage protocol) have in increasing ICU bed availability, both in admission and in facilitating ICU discharge?

ACTT-1

In hospitalised adult patients with evidence of lower respiratory tract infection due to Covid-19, is remdesivir superior to placebo in shortening the time to recovery?

Other Papers!

A culture of cultures!

Administering antimicrobial agents before obtaining blood cultures could potentially decrease time to treatment and improve outcomes, but it is unclear how this strategy affects diagnostic sensitivity.
