That’s a wrap on #IDWeek2025!
Inspiring discussions on stewardship, diagnostics & quality. Proud of HMS data shaping safer UTI treatment, pneumonia eCQMs, smarter EMR tools & sepsis measures. Grateful to our members, partners & BCBSM for driving this work!
#Sepsis #ABXStewardship
📢 Wrapping up today's #IDWeek2025 highlights:
For hospitalized patients with uncomplicated UTI, HMS data shows shorter antibiotic durations are just as safe.
✅ No difference in outcomes
⚠️ Longer courses = ↑ risk of adverse drug events
Less is more.
#ABXStewardship
📢 #IDWeek2025 feature by @valerievaughnmd.bsky.social: HMS data supported validation of 2 eCQMs for hospitalized patients with uncomplicated CAP

EMR tools (ABX counter and stop date carryover) improved CAP antibiotic duration— <6-day regimens rose from 54%→74%, with no adverse impact on patient outcomes.
Smarter tools = safer care.
