Improving Prescribing for Otitis Media in a Pediatric Emergency Unit: A Quality Improvement Initiative.
Pediatric quality & safety(2023)
Abstract
AOM management in our children's hospital's EU was often inconsistent with AAP guidelines. Two PDSA cycles improved the rate of appropriate duration antibiotics, and follow-up phone calls suggested no difference in satisfaction or need for nonroutine follow-up care based on prescription length. The next steps involve developing an order set and implementing individualized feedback.
