Summary
This study aimed to assess whether the risk of 90-day mortality is comparable for individuals who switch early to oral antibiotics and those who continue intravenous (IV) antibiotics in the treatment of uncomplicated gram-negative bacteremia. The results suggest that transition to oral antibiotics within four days after initial blood culture may be an effective alternative to prolonged IV antibiotic treatment for uncomplicated gram-negative bacteremia.
