Grant Program:

Grant Activity:
Keeping children out of hospital by being smarter with antibiotics
Purpose:
Hospitals are not the best place for children. They have worse psychological outcomes and are at risk of hospital-associated adverse events. One of the commonest reasons children are admitted to hospital is to receive intravenous (IV, through a drip). The aim of this program is 1) to find out whether for some infections children do just as well taking oral antibiotics, and 2) to find out whether for infections really needing IV antibiotics, children can be treated just as safely at home.
