Few points about UTI in men: - The term "UTI" is non-specific. If possible, try to specify: urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, or pyelonephritis. - If not possible, at least febrile vs afebrile UTI. - Simple cystitis (bladder infxn) should NOT cause fever or systemic signs.
ONE ANTIBIOTIC PK TABLE TO RULE THEM ALL Absorption takes drug into blood from GI, Vd spreads drug out to where bug calls home. And after bacteria are doomed to die, They’re mostly eliminated on the porcelain throne In the Land of Notion where this table doth lie. 1/2
never feel ashamed to: - look things up to verify/learn/relearn - ask questions to colleagues/superiors - explore uncertainty w data/discussion no matter the stage of your career, patient safety matters more than your ego. modeling curiosity & humility for learners is essential
20/ Summary! (continued) - ABP is treated with 2-4 weeks of Abx! - CBP is indolent and should be suspected when a patient has recurrent UTIs due to the same organism. - Fluoroquinolones and TMP/SMX are best options for susceptible organisms with Rx of 4-6 weeks! /End
@IDDoc_Mittal for infections with an initially uncontrolled/persistent source (eg, large abscess), count from the day source control is achieved. for infections w/o an initially uncontrolled/persistent source (eg, UTI, PNA w/o empyema), start from the day of effective therapy.
Pro tip for all Internal Medicine trainees: When we say that a patient’s lab result is at “baseline,” if it is abnormal, there should be a reason why it’s abnormal. And we should be able to clearly articulate that reason, even if the explanation is simple. 1/

All “-azoles” are not antifungal agents
In sum: - Acute infxns w/ neutrophilia can cause low peripheral CD4 counts in persons with HIV - This is due to how CD4 is calculated. - If pt was previously well-controlled, this is transient. Pt not at elevated risk for OIs in this time. @BCMIDFellowship @BCM_InternalMed
- Pts with an acute bacterial infxn might have acute neutrophilia - If CD4 count is checked at this moment, it will appear low b/c of the previous calculations. - But! This does not mean the pt is suddenly at risk for OIs. The tissue lymphocytes are present and unchanged. 2/

a reminder that malignancy and TB can look VERY similar, particularly in the chest—if you diagnose a new lung mass (especially upper lobe), if the patient is from an endemic region, consider a pulmonary TB evaluation alongside work up for malignancy!
