基督教聖經之智慧書導讀 :	Background: This quality improvement initiative focused on developing and deploying evidence-based education about acute pharyngitis care to School-Based Virtual Care (SBVC) providers and caregivers of students presenting with a sore throat to an SBVC clinic. The clinics selected for this initiative have one of the highest prevalence of Group A Streptococcus pharyngitis in North Carolina. With the increasing use of telehealth, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourages organizations to use strategies to improve antibiotic stewardship and guideline-concordant care in the telehealth setting.Aims: This initiative aimed to decrease inappropriate antibiotic prescribing for pharyngitis infections during the ten-week implementation period. The second aim was to assess barriers and improve the use of the organization's Sore Throat Treatment Algorithm with Antibiotic Guidance among medical assistants and SBVC providers providing care in the specific SBVC clinics. The third aim was to improve caregiver knowledge about sore throat diagnosis and treatment by distributing evidence-based information.Methods: SBVC providers received an education module about the Sore Throat Treatment Algorithm and general feedback on antibiotic prescribing. Following their child's visit with an SBVC provider, caregivers received a postcard with a link to additional CDC sore throat education. Quantitative and qualitative data collection methods were used to assess the success of this project.Results: Following the Sore Throat Treatment Algorithm, manual chart reviews of antibiotic prescribing rates revealed an average decrease in inappropriate antibiotic prescribing by 53.3%. Sixty-six percent (66%) of all caregivers who completed the post-education survey reported feeling extremely comfortable caring for their child with pharyngitis after viewing the evidence-based education.Conclusion: Improving adherence to the organization's Sore Throat Treatment Algorithm and providing caregiver-specific education on pharyngitis has reduced inappropriate antibiotic prescribing and improved caregiver knowledge.
