The SOS AMS (Save Our Supply Antimicrobial Stewardship) podcast brings you brief evidence reviews on major infections that contribute significantly to antimicrobial use in clinical practice, all in under 30 minutes. We explore key topics like distinguishing infection from non-infectious mimickers, a microbiology and antibiotics primer, AECOPD, CAP, HAP, Cellulitis, UTIs, Intraabdominal infections, Sepsis NYD, and Bacteremia. Working through learning objectives, we review the pathophysiology of these conditions, best evidence in management, and apply principles learned to patient cases. Written by an ID AMS pharmacist, reviewed by ID AMS physicians, and co-hosted with an ER nurse, these podcasts bring a Canadian AMS perspective to commonly encountered infections.

This episode of the SOS AMS podcast focuses on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of various community-onset intraabdominal infections. Infections discussed include cholecystitis, cholangitis, diverticulitis, acute appendicitis, pancreatitis, and liver abscess. Our hosts end the podcast by applying principles discussed to a patient case, going from differential diagnosis to management. Check out the clinical decision-making matrix for a summary of our top 3 differential diagnoses, as well as the relevant references at the provided hyperlinks.
The learning objectives for this podcast are as follows:
Contrast the pathophysiology of cholecystitis, cholangitis, diverticulitis, acute appendicitis, pancreatitis, and liver abscess.
List the usual pathogens implicated in community-onset intraabdominal infection.
Discuss selection of empiric therapy for community-onset intraabdominal infections.
Recognize the importance of source control in management of intraabdominal infections.
Apply knowledge of the above to a patient presenting with suspected intraabdominal infection.
