Many hospitals have established inpatient antibiotic stewardship programs (ASPs), but outpatient activities remain limited. In 2016, the United Hospital Fund (UHF), an independent nonprofit working to build a more effective healthcare system for every New Yorker, launched a 2-stage grant-funded initiative to evaluate outpatient antibiotic stewardship, focusing on adults with acute respiratory infections (ARIs). Conclusions from stage 1 included few outpatient antibiotic stewardship activities, variation in prescribing, macrolides as the most commonly prescribed antibiotic, and provider interest in improving prescribing.1.
许多医院都建立了住院抗生素管理项目（ASPs），但门诊活动仍然有限。2016 年，致力于为每个纽约人建立更有效的医疗体系的独立非营利组织联合医院基金会（UHF）启动了一项分两个阶段的赠款资助计划，以评估门诊抗生素管理，重点是急性呼吸道感染（ARI）的成年人。第一阶段的结论包括门诊抗生素管理活动很少、处方差异、大环内酯类药物是最常用的抗生素以及提供者改善处方的兴趣。
