Environmental impact of inhaler therapies in a cystic fibrosis unit: Strategies for sustainability.

Objective: Inhaled therapy is essential in cystic fibrosis; however, inhalers have a significant environmental impact due to the greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted. The environmental impact of a product is estimated by its carbon footprint (CF). Pressurized metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs) have a higher CF than dry powder inhalers (DPIs) and soft mist inhalers (SMIs) due to the incorporation of GHGs.

Delabelling beta-lactam allergy.

Hypersensitivity to beta-lactam (BL) antibiotics is one of the most frequent reported drug allergies. In our population, it is common to find labels of BL allergy in electronic medical records (EMRs) that have not been assessed. The objective of our study was to detect patients with beta-lactam allergy labels in their EMRs and to assess how many of them are false after a correct diagnostic evaluation.

Cystic fibrosis: desensitization in delayed hypersensitivity reactions to elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulators are the only available treatment for cystic fibrosis. Although elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) is well-tolerated, rash has been reported as very frequent. In severe rashes, ELX/TEZ/IVA withdrawal is necessary, leading to clinical deterioration.

Case Report: Micafungin for treating urinary infection: a clinical case in a premature neonate.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) associated with indwelling urinary catheterization (IUC) in premature newborns (PNBs) pose a significant challenge in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) due to the vulnerability of this population to infections and the necessity of invasive procedures. While bacterial UTIs have historically been predominant, there is a rising incidence of fungal pathogens, particularly non- strains like and , attributed to broad-spectrum antibiotic use. Diagnosis of fungal UTIs in a PNB relies on culturing spp.
