The consequences of antimicrobial overuse are complex. Censoring overuse requires strategic efforts directed at tailoring antimicrobial prescribing habits. Antimicrobial stewardship combats the negative consequences for patients and society. All members of the health care team can influence stewardship efforts in the patient treated for infectious diseases. Many of the potent antimicrobials used today are given by infusion, providing an exceptional opportunity for the infusion nurse to become a crucial part of the antimicrobial stewardship team. The goal of this article is to explain why antimicrobials are worth caring for and preserving, as well as to define the role of the infusion nurse in the antimicrobial stewardship team.
抗菌药物过度使用的后果是复杂的。审查过度使用需要有针对性地调整抗菌药物处方习惯的战略努力。抗菌药物管理可对抗对患者和社会产生的负面影响。医疗团队的所有成员都可以在治疗传染病的患者中影响管理工作。如今使用的许多强效抗菌药物都是通过静脉输注给药的,这为输液护士成为抗菌药物管理团队的关键一员提供了绝佳机会。本文的目的是解释为什么抗菌药物值得关注和保护,以及界定输液护士在抗菌药物管理团队中的作用。
