📢 Wrapping up today's #IDWeek2025 highlights:

For hospitalized patients with uncomplicated UTI, HMS data shows shorter antibiotic durations are just as safe.
✅ No difference in outcomes
⚠️ Longer courses = ↑ risk of adverse drug events

Less is more.

📢 #IDWeek2025 feature by @valerievaughnmd.bsky.social: HMS data supported validation of 2 eCQMs for hospitalized patients with uncomplicated CAP

These measures:
✅ Target abx duration & empiric selection
✅ Reliable, valid, Battelle-endorsed
✅ Under review for CMS MUC list

📊 Check out this HMS member poster presentation from Henry Ford Health at #IDWeek2025!

EMR tools (ABX counter and stop date carryover) improved CAP antibiotic duration— <6-day regimens rose from 54%→74%, with no adverse impact on patient outcomes.

Smarter tools = safer care.

🚨 Are midline catheters a safe choice for vancomycin OPAT?

Despite guideline caution, evidence is limited. Using @HMS_MI data, we explored complication risks in hospitalized patients receiving OPAT—with & without vancomycin.

Clinical dogma, meet data. 💉📊 #PatientSafety #OPAT
