Always a pleasure listening to @timburgD discussing @fido_study
His enthusiasm a driving factor in the study’s success
(Worth looking at differences in definitions for febrile infants between countries - can’t be assumed research in one country is applicable to another)

🌡️ Parents need to know: After negative cultures, home care is often safer for febrile infants. Early discharge reduces risks. #ChoosingWisely #Paediatrics #EAP #InfantCare #HospitalisationofFebrileInfants

Another one with team PEM MSc @spiroskarageo @helenawilcox27 - How should we assess febrile infants with a positive viral respiratory test?

Congratulations, Prof Michael Barrett 👏
Performance of clinical decision aids (CDA) for the care of young febrile infants: a multicentre prospective cohort study
AAP and BSAC CDAs were highly sensitive at excluding IBI, with cost saving to hospital services when compared to treat all approach

🚨Clinical decision aids (CDAs) for young febrile infants (0-90 days), conducted in the UK & Ireland..Does it revolutionize practice? Or add to the confusion? 🤔
Let’s dive in! 🧵

Replying to @fido_study
@fido_study is a practice changing study. Useful messages:
- re-iterates that not all febrile babies <90 days need lumbar punctures and iv antibiotics
- pro-calcitonin not better than CRP in this population
- cost benefits to #NHS
Exciting! 💥
Delighted to see the FIDO study in print.

The FIDO study can help clinician have informed conversion with parents and carers about the care of febrile infants through our findings. Also it offers cost analsysis and peformance of tailored care for instutions and policy makers when making a decision on which CDA to adopt.
