Script

The Auckland DHB and Starship Children's Hospital have developed an app called SCRIPT, which provides antibiotic treatment guidelines. The guidelines were created for use at these hospitals and may not be appropriate for other institutions. The app should be used as a tool to assist in decision-making, but clinical judgment and consultation with infectious disease experts are still necessary. The app includes links to web-based calculators and other information, but these are only available within the intranet of the ADHB and Starship Children's Hospital. The app was developed by a squad of clinical and research experts, and it has offline access and automatic updating. The app was created as part of a research study, the results of which are available.
