Issue Date: | Nov-2024 | Date: | 2024 | Publication information: | Internal Medicine Journal 2024-11; 54(11) | Abstract: | Penicillin allergy is a significant burden on patient, prescribing and hospital outcomes. There has been increasing interest in the incorporation of penicillin allergy testing (i.e. delabelling) into antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programmes to reduce the burden of penicillin allergy labels and improve prescribing. In particular, there has been a focus on point-of-care penicillin allergy assessment and direct oral challenge for low-risk phenotypes. The National Antibiotic Allergy Network has provided a guide to assist AMS clinicians with the incorporation of penicillin allergy programmes, in particular direct oral challenge, into Australian hospitals. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/35574 | DOI: | 10.1111/imj.16543 | ORCID: | 0000-0002-1250-2847 0000-0002-6525-1084 0000-0002-5111-6367 |
