Abstract:Background
Avoiding excessive antibiotic treatment duration is a fundamental goal in antimicrobial stewardship. Manual collection of data is a time-consuming process, but a semi-automated approach for data extraction has been shown feasible for community-acquired infections (CAI). Extraction of data however may be more challenging in hospital-acquired infections (HAI). The aim of this study is to explore whether semi-automated data extraction of treatment duration is also feasible and accurate … Show more
