Proud of @UNMC_ID Fellow @LRearigh publishing her work on safe de-escalation of abx for FN in HCT patients. Early deescalation group actually had more of the high risk HCT groups - allos + AML/ALLs. #TxID #IDtwitter #febrileneutropenia
Our retrospective review of broad spectrum abx de-escalation in FN in HSCT is online! 🛑 broad abx after afebrile x 48hrs
❌ no increase mortality
❌ no increase ICU transfer
❌ no increase new infections
⬇️ total duration of abx

3 to 4 mil: 12 days
4 to 5 mil: 11 days
5 to 6 mil: 10 days
6 to 7 mil: 8 days
7 to 8 mil: 8 days
8 to 9 mil: 6 days
The pandemic is accelerating.

Our paper describing a cytokine signature of COVID19 disease severity is now online. here we describe how we developed a rapid test to profile 4 cytokines in 1,484 COVID patients one the day of hospitalization and followed them for 49 days. 1/2 medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

#Remdesivir 5 vs. 10 day treatment trial for #severe #COVID19 is out!
- 5 days enough for most patients (shorter is good)
- Outcome strongly influenced by severity of disease within stratum (earlier is better)
- Outcomes comparable to #ACTT1 overall

Dr. Rupp sharing some useful information with @CNN earlier today, explaining the importance of wearing a mask. #WearAMask
Dr. Mark Rupp of @unmc reacts to a study saying Covid-19 may remain in the air for 8 minutes after talkling.
It "emphasizes the importance of why we should all be wearing masks...It's really no surprise that when somebody's talking, they're going to be generating these droplets."
