Excited to share our work (just in time for URI season!) implementing order sentence favorites for URI supportive care as an effective way to reduce outpatient abx prescribing, especially in Tier 3 diagnoses. Shout out to our incredible Amb Care team for partnering to implement this intervention!

Vancomycin Taper trial presented by @dremilymcd.bsky.social #ESCMID2025. In people who get better by day 10 should we stop or give taper? Reduced recurrences by primary outcome timepoint but the KM suggests it may be just delaying rather than truly preventing recurrence? #IDSky
