ANTIBIOTIC STEWARDSHIP STRATEGIES AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH ANTIBIOTIC OVERUSE AFTER HOSPITAL DISCHARGE: AN ANALYSIS OF THE ROAD HOME FRAMEWORK
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Antibiotics are frequently prescribed—and overprescribed—at hospital discharge, leading to adverse-events and patient harm. Antibiotic overuse at discharge varies widely across hospitals, with rates of overuse differing up to 5-fold.(1) Our understanding of what approaches optimize prescribing at discharge is limited. Recently, we published the ROAD (Reducing Overuse of Antibiotics at Discharge) Home Framework which […]

Background: Hospital-at-Home (HaH) is a safe and effective alternative to high-cost, traditional hospitalization in patients with a range of medical conditions, such as non-severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The COVID-19 pandemic created a unique situation with favorable policy changes, hospital resource constraints, and a clearly defined patient population that helped to increase HaH program deployment and […]

INHALED BRONCHODILATORS: NOVEL APPROACH TO IMPROVED OUTCOMES IN THE TREATMENT OF PNEUMONIA REQUIRING HOSPITALIZATION IN ABSENCE OF UNDERLYING LUNG DISEASE?
SHM Converge 2022
Background: Pneumonia is one of the most common conditions seen in hospitalized patients. While utilization of inhaled bronchodilators would be a consideration in the treatment of patients with exacerbations of underlying lung disease (ULD; i.e. asthma, COPD), their role in the absence of such underlying pathologies is not well defined.
