We assisted six Vermont hospitals in developing their antimicrobial stewardship programs to meet the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's core elements of antibiotic stewardship. We show that rural hospitals in Vermont can (1) extract antimicrobial use data from their electronic medical record; (2) develop interventions to decrease high use antimicrobial agents, such as fluoroquinolones; and (3) successfully develop sustained ASPs meeting the CDC core elements in less than 2 years. | ||
