Metrics considered most relevant by hospitalists focused on the appropriate de-escalation of antimicrobial therapy, selection of guideline-concordant antibiotics, and appropriate duration of treatment for common infectious syndromes. Next steps involve prioritization and implementation of these metrics based on quality gaps at our institution, focus groups exploring impressions of clinicians who receive a scorecard, and analysis of antibiotic prescribing patterns before and after metric implementation. Other institutions may be able to implement metrics from this scorecard based on their own quality gaps to provide hospitalists with automated feedback related to antibiotic prescribing.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15883,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hospital medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jhm.13377","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140826548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
