De-Implementation of Unnecessary Surgical Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Children
Conditions: Surgical Site Infection
Sex: All
Ages: 0 Days – 75 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 18267
Sponsor: Washington University School of Medicine
Location: Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine / Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital St. Petersburg Florida
Summary
The overall objective of this study is to identify the best strategy to eliminate unnecessary antibiotic use after surgery in pediatric surgical procedures considered low-risk for an SSI. Based on literature and our preliminary data suggesting surgeons will not fully accept standardized order sets based on current guidelines, the investigators hypothesize that order set modification combined with ASP facilitation will outperform standard order set modification alone in de-implementing unnecessary postoperative antibiotic use.
