Now we are in analysis phase, site close down is in progress. We’d like to thank all our participating sites for their hard work and dedication to the study. On behalf of the whole PEACH team, have a very Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2023.

“It was admirable that the team were committed to such early involvement.” - Margaret, co-applicant Learn more about how the PEACH involved public contributors and how those involved found the experience: nihr.ac.uk/documents/case…

Thank you to our sites for your cooperation during the close down process. Half have officially been closed. We are continuing to analyse our main work package and will publish our results within the next couple of months.

Tomorrow is #ICTD2023 and a great way to roll into next week when we discuss results of PEACH, BATCH Trial, PRECISE study and finalise plans for our first PROTECT stakeholder meeting in Leeds with Enitan Carrol 🇬🇲🇸🇱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 and CTRCardiffUni colleagues.

Looking forward to presenting the results of our study at an internal CTRCardiffUni meeting this week with Enitan Carrol 🇬🇲🇸🇱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧, and with our wider investigator group next month. Thank you again to all site staff who worked so hard to gather patient data for this study. #ICTD2023

Thank you to all our sites for participating in the close down process. All sites are now closed. Analysis of data is almost complete and we look forward to sharing the results in due course.

We have finished all analysis. We hope to have main results of PEACH published very soon alongside our qualitative and health economics papers. cardiff.ac.uk/centre-for-tri… Jonathan Sandoe Enitan Carrol 🇬🇲🇸🇱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 NHS NE&Yorks AMR - Philip HOWARD OBE Martin Llewelyn Lucy Brookes-Howell Dr Emma Thomas-Jones Dr Joanne Euden

Alot of work ongoing in the background to get manuscripts submitted. We have an incredibly rich repository of clinical data which reflects the huge effort from all our participating Trusts. We look forward to sharing the results of this study with you over the next few months.

As well as our PEACH, see what other studies CTRCardiffUni are conducting on diagnosis of infections. Antimicrobial resistance is an urgent global threat. It is vital that we #KeepAntibioticsWorking Jonathan Sandoe Enitan Carrol 🇬🇲🇸🇱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

We have just about finished analysis for PEACH (Procalcitonin evaluation of antibiotic use in COVID-19 hospitalised patients). Make sure you follow for updates, results and dissemination activities. #WAAW2023 Enitan Carrol 🇬🇲🇸🇱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 Jonathan Sandoe National Institute for Health and Care Research University of Leeds

It’s the end of #WAAW2023 & we’ve been highlighting work from our infections division at CTRCardiffUni. #AMR & antimicrobial stewardship needs to be at forefront of our minds. We need better diagnostics, implemented quickly once evidence exists for better patient outcomes.

PEACH is an excellent example of using diagnostics to reduce inappropriate antibiotics use during a viral pandemic outbreak @glgamr #eccmid2024 #escmidglobal

And we are here ESCMID about to go to a sepsis talk by Mervyn Singer and then present the results of our PEACH.

Great to share our work on PEACH on #procalcitonin shortening antibiotic course length during #Covid #ECCMID2024 or #ESCMIDGlobal
