Abstract

Antibiotic stewardship ward rounds are recommended by the Infectious Diseases Society of America as an effective intervention to encourage prudent prescribing of antibiotics in hospitals. Stewardship ward rounds have been operating in our 1000-bed teaching hospital since the year 2000 and involve a multi-disciplinary team of medical microbiologists and antibiotic pharmacists, a paediatric infectious diseases physician and a specialist nurse for surgical site infection.
