As most of you are aware, I usually send these email blasts in response to medical articles that appear in the news, and most often, The New York Times. This is an example where, almost four months ago, I alerted my patients to a rising problem of antibiotic resistance, mainly with urinary tract infection because physicians were failing to do appropriate cultures prior to initiating broad spectrum antibiotic use.
In the July 14th New York Times, a front-page article was entitled, “As a common infection evolves, drugs falter and patients suffer.” This article went into great detail talking about common urinary tract infections now requiring treatment with heavy duty intravenous antibiotics as a result of increasing drug resistance. In fact, the article mentioned that last year researchers reported in a study that one third of all urinary tract infections in Britain were resistant to “key antibiotics.” So, this is an example where I had actually disseminated information to you prior to it becoming news worthy enough to be a front-page article in the New York Times. I won’t bother to repeat all the details here. Simply click on the link provided above for the information that I disseminated in early April, which has not changed, and was now reported in yesterday’s New York Times.
So, not only do I try to stay on top of the medical news for you but, in this case, was actually ahead of the news.
