Intervention and Acceptance Rates Support Handshake-Stewardship Strategy
Abstract
We instituted a new antimicrobial stewardship approach that involves review of all antimicrobial agents and communication of interventions in person by a pharmacist-physician team termed handshake stewardship. The acceptance rate in this study was 86%, intervention rates were higher with a physician, and interventions on antibiotics not reviewed by other strategies were made frequently.
