VA fights superbugs with virtual doctor teams
NCT ID NCT05319561
Summary
This project aims to help rural VA hospitals use antibiotics more carefully to fight drug-resistant infections. It connects local doctors with infectious disease experts via video calls to review cases. The study will test if adding reports on a hospital's overall antibiotic use makes this telehealth program even more effective at reducing unnecessary prescriptions.
