Abstract
Outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) is increasingly used to treat serious infections. Patients who identify themselves as homeless may receive OPAT less often, and little is known about their treatment outcomes. The purpose of this study was to describe challenges, treatment completion rates, and cost savings of OPAT in homeless patients discharged from a public safety-net hospital.Entities:
