The FDA approval is supported by data from the phase 3 ALLIUM trial, which demonstrated the non-inferiority and superiority of cefepime/enmetazobactam vs piperacillin/tazobactam.

The aim of this document is to present a framework by which AUGS and its members can address the development of new technology and techniques, particularly in the surgical arena.

The FDA has issued a complete response letter regarding a new drug application for cefepime-taniborbactam for the treatment of patients with complicated urinary tract infection.

The position statement is meant to iterate AUGS' support for gender inclusion of both patients and health care providers.

Cefepime-taniborbactam is currently under review by the FDA for cUTI, including acute pyelonephritis, based on data from the CERTAIN-1 trial.

The purpose of this clinical consensus statement is to identify areas of expert consensus and nonconsensus regarding pessary fitting, follow-up, and management of pessary complications to improve the safety and quality of care where evidence is currently limited.

Iterum plans to resubmit a New Drug Application for oral sulopenem for the treatment of patients with uUTi in Q2 of 2024.

"I'm thrilled to continue my partnership with SMPA to educate and empower others to address their OAB," says Holly Robinson Peete.

“This study confirms what many women who’ve struggled with persistent UTIs already know, which is that the current methods of diagnosing and treating these infections are inadequate," says Jennifer Rohn, PhD.

“Sexual wellness is critical to overall health and happiness. That’s why you see more men and women turning to specialty health clinics for solutions to problems they consider more aesthetic versus medical,” said Mitchell Hollander, MD.

Using a case-based, interactive approach, this course is designed to offer practical clinical and surgical pearls for the management of women with complex pelvic floor disorders and complications.

“These findings demonstrate that electrofulguration provides a durable clinical cure that enables many postmenopausal women to remain UTI-free with minimal to no continued need for antibiotic therapy," says Philippe E. Zimmern, MD.

Increased retrovesicourethral angle, decreased functional urethral length, and the presence of bladder funnel were pelvic floor parameters identified as potential predictors of stress urinary incontinence in the early postpartum period.
