Rationale: De-escalation EventsDe-escalation is a core principle of Antimicrobial Stewardship.Target/narrow antibiotic therapies after more data returnsStop therapy when infection has been ruled outTracking de-escalations may:Demonstrate impact of AS activities Identify where AS interventions are needed

Aim: Create an objective definition for de-escalation based on electronic dataDe-escalation should be considered for any infection treated empirically More broad than pneumonia and ICU1,3,4

De-escalation occurs after a few days of empiric therapy Subset to a hospital population that is eligible2

Instead of only “spectrum,”1 we will also consider “protected” agents Agents we have interest in conserving from AS perspective (e.g. risk of toxicity, safety,

development of resistance, cost)

LimitationsPilot study sample of 5 hospitals in Southeastern United StatesDid not measure appropriateness or eligibility for de-escalation Prophylaxis MDRO infection

Rankings may not align with an individual ASP practice (e.g. restricted agents)Only evaluated first antibiotic course per admissionICD-10 codes for infection diagnosis?

ConclusionsWe developed an objective definition for de-escalation based on electronic data.De-escalation occurred in ~1 in 3 admissions; similar to other estimates in the literature.2,5

Variability among hospitals, units, and syndromes.De-escalation could be used as a process metric to demonstrate ASP impact on antibiotic decisions.De-escalation may help identify areas for intervention if paired with benchmarking and risk-adjustment methods.
