Skin and Soft Tissue (SST) Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:
The INSPIRE-ASP Trial (INtelligent Stewardship Prompts to Improve Real-Time Empiric Antibiotic Selection for Patients) for Skin and Soft Tissue (SST) Infections
The INSPIRE Skin and Soft Tissue Infection trial is a cluster-randomized controlled trial of HCA Healthcare hospitals comparing routine empiric antibiotic stewardship practices with real-time, precision medicine computerized physician order entry (CPOE) smart prompts providing the probability that a non-critically ill adult admitted with skin and soft tissue infection is infected with a resistant pathogen. Note: enrolled "subjects" represent 102 individual HCA Healthcare hospitals that have been randomized into 92 clusters. Hospitals were grouped into the same randomization cluster if they shared campuses or antibiotic stewardship staff.
