Abstract
We describe our approach to addressing a nation-wide supply issue for blood culture bottles. Aerobic blood culture bottles received from our distributor July 1-15, 2024 was <1% of typical usage. Through education and ordering restrictions blood culture designed to minimize risk, orders were reduced by 49% over a one-week period.
