Description

Fatemeh Rangraz Jeddi and co-authors review whether information technology helps doctors prescribe antibiotics wisely for urinary infections, in a 2025 systematic review. Urinary infections drive huge antibiotic use, much of it needless. Decision support can deliver guidance at the moment of prescribing. Digital alerts, order sets, and feedback all qualify as interventions.

Randomized and cluster trials were gathered from three major databases. Studies ran through mid-2024 and covered varied care settings. Outcomes centered on prescribing quality for these infections. Stewardship programs need evidence on which digital tools pay off. The review separates tested effects from vendor promises. Health systems planning software purchases gain a sober summary. Resistance trends make the question urgent.
