First seen Jan 26, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study tests whether alerts built into the electronic health record can help doctors avoid prescribing antibiotics when they aren't needed for children with lower respiratory tract infections like pneumonia, bronchiolitis, or asthma flare-ups. About 2,800 children at three U.S. hospitals will be randomly assigned to get usual care or care with these decision-support tools. The goal is to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use without harming patient safety.
