About this title

Written by an international team of authors specializing in microbiology and infectious disease, this new edition of Evidenced-Based Infectious Diseases presents practical, up-to-date information on the care of individual patients suffering from infectious diseases.

The text is divided into two parts, in which each chapter addresses a series of focused clinical questions addressed in a systematic fashion, including a comprehensive literature search, and a rating of the quality of evidence using principles of the GRADE framework.

Part 1, on Specific Diseases, covers Skin and Soft‐tissue Infections, Bone and Joint Infections, Infective Endocarditis, Meningitis and Encephalitis, Community‐acquired Pneumonia, Healthcare‐associated Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, Clostridium Difficile Infection in Adults, Urinary Tract Infections,Sexually Transmitted Infections, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis, Influenza, and Critical Care.

Part 2, on Special Populations, covers Infection Prevention and Control, Antimicrobial Stewardship, Infections in Neutropenic Hosts, Infections in General Surgery, and Infections in Healthcare Workers.

Evidence-Based Infectious Diseases is thus the ideal reference work for all those involved with microbiology, infectious diseases, and clinical management.

Editors: Dominik Mertz, Fiona Smaill, and Nick Daneman
