New app ensures KGH patients get antibiotics quickly

New app ensures KGH patients get antibiotics quickly Doctors and nurses will be able to speed up the process of giving Kettering General Hospital patients antibiotics – by using an app on their phone.

The hospital has launched antibiotic app MicroGuide, enabling staff to swiftly check exactly which antibiotics to prescribe, in what dose and in what way form.

It will also give staff the most up to date national and local guidance to help tackle bacteria that are becoming resistant to antibiotics. Northamptonshire Telegraph
