Antimicrobial stewardship: The influence of behavioral nudging on renal-function–based appropriateness of dosing
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 June 2020
Abstract
Failure to adjust doses may contribute to adverse events. We evaluated the effectiveness of providing the estimated glomerular filtration rate on appropriateness of dosing for antimicrobials. The approach increased appropriateness of dosing from 33.9% to 41.4% (P < .001). Nudging prescription behavior can boost strategies for adequate antimicrobial prescription.
