Gaynes RP , Gould CV , Edwards J , Antoine TL , Blumberg HM , Desilva K , King M , Kraman A , Pack J , Ribner B , Seybold U , Steinberg J , Jernigan JA . Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2009 30 (8) 794-6 We examined interventions to optimize piperacillin-tazobactam use at 4 hospitals. Interventions for rotating house staff did not affect use. We could target empiric therapy in only 35% of cases. Because prescribing practices seemed to be institution specific, interventions should address attitudes of local prescribers. Interventions should target empiric therapy and ordering of appropriate cultures. |
