#93 Antibiotic Therapeutic Guidelines Update with Dr Greg Rowles GP
Published 6 years, 6 months ago
Description
Dr Greg Rowles is a General Practitioner from Riddells Creek in rural Victoria, and a member of an Expert Group which developed and reviewed Version 16 of the Antibiotic Guidelines.
Today we discuss:
- Antibiotic stewardship and practical GP considerations in antibiotic prescribing including shared decision making, penicillin hypersensitivity, paediatric recommendations etc
- Ear nose throat: Acute otitis media and tonsillitis update
- Respiratory: Community-acquired pneumonia update
- Genitourinary: UTI and STI update
- GIT: Diverticulitis and parasite update
- Dermatology: Cellulitis, bite wounds, diabetic foot infection
And tangential questions in-between!
Conflict of interest: Dr Rowles is obviously associated with the Therapeutic Guidelines. However, there are no conflicts of interest for myself/The GP Show podcast. I did NOT receive any financial payment for this episode.
Enjoy friends.
