Talk:Fecal matter transplant

SIBO -- EscapeTheFog (talk) 02:15, June 11, 2019 (EDT)

Would like to get some text about FMT as a potential treatment for SIBO. I have heard of this being used experimentally. Fecal Transplant for SIBO has some basic info and claims it has never been studied. This sounds plausibly correct, but I wonder if I can find a more authoritative source.

MDRO testing guidelines -- EscapeTheFog (talk) 11:51, June 15, 2019 (EDT)

I recently added text on risk and case reports of serious/deadly complications. For this I cited safety alert document from the FDA. Within the doc I was confused by the following text "FDA scientists have determined the specific MDRO testing and frequency that should be implemented." It's unclear to me if this is a typo (should have been "have not determined" or "have not yet determined") or where the testing guidelines have been published. If anyone can find the answer to this, I think it would be great to clarify in the MEpedia article whether there is an official testing guideline/standard, or practitioners are free to develop their own.
