Diabetic Foot FilesDiabetic Foot FilesBattling Infections: MRSA and Candida in Diabetic FeetWelcome back to another episode of Diabetics with Files, the podcast where we’re dedicated to diabetic foot health prevention and education. I’m your host, Dr. G, aka Call Me Gabby, and today’s episode is critical as we delve into two of the most dangerous yet often overlooked infections that can threaten the diabetic foot: MRSA and Candida. We'll explore the microbiology, diagnosis, treatment, and most importantly, prevention of these silent invaders. Join us as we discuss case studies and real-life scenarios, revealing how these infections can turn a small foot problem into a life-changing compli...2025-04-1014 minThe ASHE PodcastThe ASHE PodcastEpisode 17: Rethinking Contact Precautions: A Genomic Lens on MRSA in Acute CareIn this episode of The ASHE Podcast, we explore how innovative approaches in infection prevention are reshaping healthcare practices. Guests Graham Snyder, Elise Martin, and Ashley Ayers join the discussion to discuss their study titled "Impact of Discontinuation of Contact Precautions on Surveillance- and Whole Genome Sequencing-Defined Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Healthcare-Associated Infections" and what it means for the future of infection control. The conversation explores the evolving role of contact precautions (CP) in managing MRSA transmission. The discontinuation of CP has sparked debates in infection prevention, with this study providing a fresh perspective through whole genome sequencing (WGS). Unlike traditional...2024-12-1235 minSupplements Podcast By RevGeneticsSupplements Podcast By RevGeneticsSpermidine vs MRSA - Spermidine Boosts Immunity Against MRSA Infections - Podcast 021 In this podcast, researchers explore the link between gut health and fighting off MRSA infections. They found that antibiotics disrupting gut bacteria made mice more susceptible to severe MRSA infections. However, fecal transplants from healthy mice improved infections drastically. The key molecule identified was spermidine, produced by gut bacteria. Mice with higher spermidine levels showed improved survival rates and reduced infection severity when infected with MRSA. Spermidine seemed to boost the immune system's response to the infection. This research highlights the importance of gut health in combating antibiotic-resistant superbugs like MRSA.

It is endemic in tertiary referral hospitals in the developed world. The first Australian isolation was made at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH) in Sydney, Australia, in 1965.  So what is MRSA and how can we stop the spread of this potentially deadly nosocomial (hospital acquired) pathogen that has become resistant to so many antibiotics? It is a problem particularly for susceptible patients: neonates, immune suppressed and those undergoing surgical procedures. It can cause infection in wounds, urinary tract, blood and l...2024-10-0112 minPlanBri UncutPlanBri UncutWe Have MRSA Brain | PlanBri Uncut Episode 278Brianna Lapaglia and Grace O'Malley are being wicked weird and creepy on today's episode.
