Urinary tract infection treatment practices in nursing homes reporting to the National Healthcare Safety Network, 2017
Keyword(s):
Abstract We describe differences between urinary tract infection treatment and events reported by nursing homes enrolled in the National Healthcare Safety Network. In 2017, almost 4 times as many antibiotic starts as infection events were reported, suggesting that opportunities exist for antibiotic stewardship and improvement of urinary tract infection reporting.
