Home-Based Outpatient Parenteral Antibiotic Therapy at an Urban Safety Net Hospital: Comparing Outcomes in Persons With and Without Noninjection Drug Use

As stimulant use and infections among persons using drugs rise nationally, evidence remains limited on how best to deliver outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) to persons using noninjection drugs. In an urban safety net population including persons using noninjection drugs, home-based...

description As stimulant use and infections among persons using drugs rise nationally, evidence remains limited on how best to deliver outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) to persons using noninjection drugs. In an urban safety net population including persons using noninjection drugs, home-based OPAT completion rates were similarly high as those of non-drug-using individuals.
