The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) has released new guidelines for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections. In this episode, we break down the key updates:

  • Changes to the definition of complicated UTIs

  • The role of newer antibiotic agents

  • How and when to use antibiograms

  • A four-step framework for guiding therapy

  • When carbapenems are necessary—and when other options may be just as effective

  • Shorter durations of therapy

Join Dr. Barbara Trautner, Dr. Nicolas Cortés-Penfield, and Dr. Kalpana Gupta as they discuss what these guidelines mean for clinicians, microbiologists, and patients.

👉 Stay tuned until the end for a special announcement.
