Module organizer

Module objectives

Improving antibiotic prescription and infection control the Emergency Room

Emergency Rooms (ERs) are challenging: time is scarce; the workload is great; medical teams are not constant; awareness and expertise can be improved. Typically, ERs are the first place for antimicrobial decision, which should be timely and appropriate, with low rates of prescription change when patients are transferred to wards. On the other side, ERs are central for screening and isolation of admitted patients, improving safety of other patients and healthcare workers.
