A Retrospective Cohort Study of Oral Antimicrobial Therapy Offers in Hospitalized People Who Inject Drugs Who Elect for Self-directed Discharge
Most hospitalized PWID with IDU-related infections with SDD did not receive an OATO. Early career clinicians more commonly offered oral antimicrobials in PWID with less complicated infection types. Standardizing OATO in PWID at risk for SDD should be considered as a future direction to improve health outcomes.
