Using machine learning to predict antibiotic resistance to support optimal empiric treatment of urinary tract infections
Background: Antibiotic resistance is pervasive in the Veterans’ Affairs (VA) healthcare system, with rates of fluoroquinolone and trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) resistance approaching 30% in E. coli urinary isolates. The efficacy of antimicrobial treatment is critically dependent on the sus...
