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.

Conditions

  • Surgical Site Infection

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Order set review and modification with facilitation

The antimicrobial stewardship program will receive facilitation training to aid in reviewing and changing order sets of clean or clean-contaminated procedures to eliminate unnecessary post-operative antibiotics.

OTHER
