The role of a DEdicated Infectious Disease consultant within an antimicrobial stewardship programme towards better patient CARE (DE-IDCARE Project): results from a quasi-experimental, single-centre study
The DE-IDCARE project underscores the potential of dedicated CIDs within a structured ASP, leading to optimization of antimicrobial prescriptions without significantly affecting patients' outcomes. These findings offer a strong rationale for the wider implementation of CID as a cornerstone of effective AMS strategies.
