Antibiotic Stewardship

Antibiotic Stewardship is an effort to measure antibiotic prescribing;to improve antibiotic prescribing by clinicians and use by patients so that antibiotics are only prescribed and used when needed;to minimize misdiagnosis or delayed diagnoses leading to under use of antibiotics; and to ensure that the right drug,dose,and duration are selected when an antibiotic is needed .
This is described by Centers for Disease Control,USA.
