Innovative tests that accurately diagnose UTIs and inform antibiotic prescribing are needed. @NICEComms has identified 4 tests: Savyon Diagnostics and Prize participants @GlobalAccessDx, @AstregoDx and @Llusern_Ltd that could be used in the NHS: rb.gy/8gt2

Seeking authors interested in UTI to help draft this new WikiGuideline. Also need to find folks interested in co-leading--it's much more work to co-lead, but get 1st and Senior authors. We have 1 already interested but need a 2nd co-lead. If interested, please email or DM me!
📢 📢📢 We are delighted to announce that we have begun to assemble a team for UTI WikiGuideline. Join us to create guidelines with the humility of uncertainty. Use the link below to begin the process by April 9, 2023 forms.office.com/r/Tyb8R0iM8… #MedTwitter #IDTwitter

The Lodestar DX test detects 6 common UTI-causing bacteria (E. coli, Klebsiella spp, Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Enterococcus spp, Pseudomonas aeruginosa). Results take approximately 40 minutes.
One of our planned care projects has been featured in a piece of draft guidance by @NICEComms. Fantastic to see this project getting the recognition it deserves! 👏 @EmmaHayhurst3 @JeroenNieuwlan1 @Llusern_Ltd Have a read 🔗 nice.org.uk/news/article/fou…
