The impact of diagnostic microbiology on de-escalation of antimicrobial therapy in hospitalised adults

BACKGROUND: Minimising antimicrobial overuse is needed to limit antimicrobial resistance. There is little evidence on how often microbiological testing informs antimicrobial de-escalation (e.g. stopping, shortening duration, switching to narrower spectrum or intravenous to oral switch) at 48–72 h “r...
