Abstract:Asymptomatic bacteriuria and urinary tract infection in renal transplant are important antimicrobial stewardship targets but are difficult to identify within electronic medical records. We validated an “electronic phenotype” of antibacterials prescribed for these indications. This may be more useful than billing data in assessing antibiotic indication in this outpatient setting.
