Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to implement an opt-out protocol to guide appropriate de-escalation of antibiotics in qualifying patients. The protocol, determined over the course a year with the help of a large, well-rounded expert panel, will be used by pharmacists to recommend de-escalation of antibiotics to hospital providers. Providers can then decide whether or not to follow the recommendation in determining the best treatment pathway for his or her patient.
