Open Forum Infect Dis. 2019 Mar 26;6(4):ofz133. doi: 10.1093/ofid/ofz133. eCollection 2019 Apr.

Abstract

With an increasing number of antimicrobial stewardship-related articles published each year, attempting to stay current is challenging. The Southeastern Research Group Endeavor (SERGE-45) identified antimicrobial stewardship-related peer-reviewed literature that detailed an "actionable" intervention for 2017. The top 13 publications were selected using a modified Delphi technique. These manuscripts were reviewed to highlight the "actionable" intervention used by antimicrobial stewardship programs to provide key stewardship literature for training and teaching and identify potential intervention opportunities within their institutions.

Keywords: antibiotics; antimicrobial stewardship; infectious diseases; intervention.
