ECCMID Shorts 2023: Antibiotic therapy duration and multidisciplinary decision-making in the ICU

Join Gemma Winzor (Editor in Chief, Infection Prevention in Practice) live from Copenhagen, Denmark, for the 33rd European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (ECCMID 2023), 15-18 April 2023.

In this short, Robin ME Janssen (Raboud University Medical Centre, Netherlands) provides insight into the decision-making process on antibiotic therapy duration during multidisciplinary meetings. How can you work better with colleagues from other departments, and how can you fit antimicrobial stewardship into your department’s daily routine?
