Episode 106: Infection and Intervention: Polymicrobial Osteomyelitis in Conflict Zones

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we discuss with Dr. Mohamad Khalife and Dr. Anna Farra (two infectious diseases physicians with Doctors without Borders) their recent published article in Open Forum Infect Dis: " Posttraumatic Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Osteomyelitis in Mosul and Gaza: A Retrospective Cohort Study, 2018 - 2022. "

    This is a timely episode that relates to the latest conflicts in the region including Iraq, Gaza, and Lebanon. We discuss the role of NGOs and local hospitals in acute care and the subsequent major role of surgeons and quality microbiology labs in preventing multidrug resistant infections, preventing amputations, and treating bone infections and other wounds appropriately.

    Tune in to listen to the great work that is being done by the staff of MSF and by Dr. Khalife and Farra in these area.
