Can we treat patients with low-risk BSI discharged from the ED with a fully-oral course of antibiotics?

Randomized trials have unanimously shown the benefits of oral antibiotic treatments for stable patients with bacteremia (1). However, transition to oral therapy has been usually performed after several days of intravenous treatment—frequently up to 7 days (2)—highlighting the need for evidence of the safety of earlier oral treatments (3).
