Summary

The Virtual Antimicrobial stewardship Team (VAT) study aims to evaluate, in a randomized
 controlled trial (RCT), the effect of a weekly virtual antimicrobial stewardship (AMS)
 intervention on the appropriateness of prescribing antibiotics for nursing home (NH)
 residents with urinary tract infections (UTI), respiratory tract infections (RTI) or skin and
 soft tissue infections (SSTI) compared to standard care for NH residents in Dutch NHs in the
 provinces of North-Holland and Flevoland. The secondary aim is to identify barriers and
 facilitators to implement a stewardship intervention and subsequently develop an
 implementation guide.
