#117 – Amnio-Oh-No You Didn’t: Modernizing Antimicrobial Regimens for Intraamniotic Infections
Drs. Amy Crockett (@amyhcrockett), Ben Ereshefsky (@brainofbpharm), and Pamela Bailey (@pamipenem) join Dr. Julie Ann Justo (@julie_justo) to discuss new treatment strategies for management of intraamniotic infections, also known as chorioamnionitis. They discuss whether it is time to move away from the combination of ampicillin, gentamicin, and/or clindamycin, alternative antibiotic regimens to consider, and stewardship strategies to approach this practice change at a local level.

#116 – SNAP Out of It: Rethinking Antistaphylococcal Penicillins for S. Aureus Bacteremia – The SNAP Trial PSSA/MSSA Results
Breakpoints joins forces with CMI Communications’ Communicable podcast to discuss the highly anticipated SNAP trial updates presented at ESCMID Global 2025. Hosts Drs. Erin McCreary and Angela Huttner interview SNAP trial investigators, Drs. Joshua Davis and Steven Tong, on results from penicillin-susceptible and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus domains. Conflict of Interest for DSMC Members: Conflicts of interest were evaluated when choosing individuals to serve on the SNAP DSMC. Aside from being compensated for their duties on the committee, DSMC members have no ongoing financial relationship that relate to the trial and are not involved in the conduct of the trial in any role other than that of a DSMC member. DSMC members have no intellectual conflict of interest or bias and reviewed SNAP data in a fully objective manner. Each DSMC candidate was well vetted.
