Grant Activity:
PET/CT for Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections: an international, multicentre, randomised controlled trial
Purpose:
Bloodstream infections due to Staphylococcus aureus (golden staph) are common (~5,000 episodes per year in Australia) and deadly (20% mortality rate). Key to treatment is finding where the infection is lodged in the body.
The SNAP-PET trial will determine whether using a nuclear medicine imaging PET/CT scan detects previously unrecognised foci of infection and results in changes to clinical management (surgical drainage of infection and optimal antibiotic duration) and improved patient outcomes.
