Background:

The recent Study to Optimize Peritoneal Infection Therapy (STOP-IT) trial demonstrated that, for patients with complicated intra-abdominal infection (cIAI) after adequate surgical or interventional radiologic source control, short-duration antibiotic therapy (~ 4 d) was associated with similar outcomes compared to longer-duration therapy (~ 8 d). This study was performed to assess prescribing of antibiotic therapy for cIAI subsequent to STOP-IT with respect to duration, and to determine patient- or disease-related characteristics related to shorter treatment courses, regardless of patient severity of illness.
