Article Synopsis
- A curriculum on antimicrobial stewardship (AS) and infection prevention and control (IPC) was created to cater to various learning styles at a medical center, incorporating case-based modules, group activities, and smartphone apps.
- Between 2012 and 2016, over 180 medical students participated, showing increased confidence in prescribing antibiotics and identifying protective equipment, with 69% preferring the app for antibiotic info.
- The curriculum led to a 20% increase in appropriate antibiotic prescriptions and nearly all infectious disease fellows deemed the seminars essential for their training, with future studies planned to assess the long-term effects.
