Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to inform those who are implementing or enhancing antimicrobial stewardship programs in non-traditional healthcare settings on the principles, practice, and outcomes of these initiatives to improve patient care. Written by experts in infectious diseases, hospital epidemiology, and pharmacy, this text is the first to provide such a comprehensive review of this important aspect of clinical care. The text begins by unpacking antimicrobial stewardship in nontraditional settings then covers specific environments, including long-term care facilities, outpatient clinics, and emergency departments. The text also covers special topics, including veterinary medicine, HIV, oncology, and immunocompromised patients, pediatrics, transplant, and critical care patients.

Antimicrobial Stewardship in Non-Traditional Settings is an excellent resource for practitioners, including infectious disease specialists, geriatricians, emergency medicine physicians, family care physicians, surgeons, critical care physicians, hospitalists, nurses, and all others who may treat infections in a wide range of healthcare environments.
