Here is my checklist transferring a patient out of ICU

✅ 2 things to check in computer (labs, vitals)

✅ 2 people to talk to (RN, RT)

✅ 2 things to clean up (meds, lines)

The absolute *key* is talking to the RN & RT. They know the minute-to-minute details of patient care needs & trajectory. #2/2

I went further down this rabbit hole

this meta-analysis is the best evidence-based overview of which ABX select resistance I can find👇

as folks are commenting: this supports that it's more important to d/c ABX & limit duration than argue about exactly which agent
