SUMMARY:Choosing Wisely: How Urine Tests Drive Antibiotic Overuse Across Health Care Sectors
DESCRIPTION:Urine dipsticks and urinalysis are often used to diagnose suspected urinary tract infections (UTIs). But they are often inaccurate in older adults\, and the results lead to a cascade of unnecessary testing and antibiotic use. This happens in long-term care\, primary care and emergency departments\, and the resulting cascade frequently follows the patient across care settings. \nJoin Choosing Wisely Talks on November 18 at 2 p.m. ADT for World Antimicrobial Awareness Week. Our panel of experts will discuss why low-value urine testing persists\, the impact on antibiotic use\, and system-wide strategies to improve practice. \nSpeakers: \n\nDr. Jerome Leis\, Infectious Diseases Physician\, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre\, Using Antibiotics Wisely Lead\, Choosing Wisely Canada\nDr. Janet Reynolds\, Physician\, Primary Care Co-Lead\, Choosing Wisely Canada\nJulie Weir\, Clinical Director Operations\, Patient Flow and Ambulatory Care\, Horizon Health and Long-Term Care Clinician Co-Lead\, Choosing Wisely Canada\n\nPlease register via https://choosingwiselycanada.zoom.us/meeting/register/34-uCtYCR92_ac4qksGSGg#/registration
