Background Infectious diseases consult (IDC) and antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) intervention independently demonstrate improved management of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB). However, data supporting utilizing both strategies is limited. The objective of the current study is to assess evidence-based bundle adherence for SAB in the presence and absence of mandatory IDC and AMS pharmacist review in a multi-site health system. Methods This retrospective study included adult inpatients with SAB from January 2016 to December 2018 at seven hospitals. Outcomes were compared between three groups: pre-mandatory IDC and AMS review (group 1), post-mandatory IDC and pre-AMS review (group 2), and post-mandatory IDC and AMS review (group 3). The primary outcome was bundle adherence defined as: appropriate intravenous antimicrobial therapy, appropriate duration of therapy, 24–48-hour surveillance cultures until documented clearance, echocardiography, and removal of indwelling intravenous catheters, if applicable. Secondary endpoints included individual bundle components, source control, length of stay (LOS), 30-day bacteremia-related readmission, and in-hospital all-cause mortality. Results A total of 579 patients met the final inclusion criteria for analysis. Complete bundle adherence was achieved in 65% of patients for group 1 (n = 371), 54% for group 2 (n = 87), and 76% for group 3 (n = 121). Adherence to bundle elements was significantly higher in group 3 when compared with group 1 (odds ratio [OR] 0.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37–0.93), and group 2 (OR 0.37, 95% CI 0.20 – 0.67). No difference in bundle adherence was noted between groups 1 and 2. When comparing groups 1, 2 and 3, significant differences were seen in obtaining echocardiography (91% vs. 83% vs. 100%; P = 0.0378), and hospital LOS (10.5 vs. 8.85 vs. 12.0 days; P = 0.0149), respectively. Increased hospital LOS in group 3 may be due to nonsignificant higher rates of complicated bacteremia compared with groups 2 and 1 (32% vs. 44% vs. 43%, P = 0.09), respectively. No differences were noted for readmission or mortality. Conclusion The addition of AMS pharmacist review to mandatory IDC significantly improved quality care bundle adherence.
