Teaching Antimicrobial Stewardship to Infectious Disease Fellows Through Simulated Interdisciplinary Scenarios
Introduction While several approaches have been described to teach antimicrobial stewardship (AS) practices, fewer have been aimed at infectious disease physicians. We developed a series of simulated AS meetings to train infectious disease fellows in the synthesis of AS interventions. Methods Three...
