Implementation study demonstrates improved antibiotic adjustments and fewer hospitalizations in pediatric urinary tract infections, highlighting ambulatory stewardship efficacy.

Notable process changes included standardizing susceptibility interpretation and creating an antibiotic discontinuation process.
