2005. Successful Implementation of a Procalcitonin Algorithm Associated with Reduction in Antibiotic Days
BACKGROUND: Randomized controlled trials of procalcitonin (PCT)-based algorithms for antibacterial therapy have been shown to reduce antimicrobial use and improve survival. Translation of PCT algorithms to clinical settings has often been unsuccessful. METHODS: We implemented a PCT algorithm, suppor...
