About this Course: This CME presentation covers the latest evidence on the management of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB), focusing on identifying and diagnosing patients, key guidelines, and clinical studies. It reviews the risks of unnecessary antimicrobial treatment, including increased resistance and Clostridioides difficile infections, and emphasizes the lack of benefit in specific patient populations such as renal transplant recipients and elderly individuals with delirium. The presentation provides actionable recommendations based on current meta-analyses and clinical guidelines to optimize patient care and minimize harm from overtreatment.
