Summary

This study compares two ways to treat Gram-negative bloodstream infections: staying on IV antibiotics versus switching to oral pills early. Researchers want to see if the oral option works just as well but causes fewer side effects. About 1,030 hospitalized adults will take part, and their recovery and any complications will be tracked for 30 days.
