  • 107. Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia (SAB) - interpreting and applying the literature
    Apr 28 2025

    What exciting times! Clinical trials into the management of SAB! SNAP publication on the horizon!

    But how do we interpret and apply the results of these trials to our patients? This week Jame and Callum are joined by Dr Clark Russell, Clinical Lecturer in Infectious Diseases to discuss:

    1. The difficulty in interpreting current clinical trials in SAB.
    2. The emerging concept of "low risk" SAB and how to define this.
    3. The heterogeneity of SAB and how this might be exploited.
