Empiric antibiotic therapy resistance and mortality in emergency department patients with bloodstream infection: a retrospective cohort study

Empiric antibiotic therapy resistance and mortality in emergency department patients with bloodstream infection: a retrospective cohort study

Timely management of sepsis in the emergency department, including the use of appropriate antimicrobials, is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Inadequate empiric antimicrobial treatment is associated with potential changes in patient outcomes. We aimed to pinpoint risk factors, characterize antibiotic resistance trends, and investigate the association between antibiotic resistance and mortality among patients with bacteremia admitted to the emergency department.
