7 days of adequate antibiotic treatment durations

We will not be randomizing patients to any specific antibiotic regimen. Patients will be randomized to fixed durations of adequate treatment: 7 versus 14 days. The selection of antibiotic(s) will be at the discretion of the treating team, although the research team will check to ensure that the selected antibiotics have an 'adequate' spectrum of coverage for the bacterial pathogen(s) isolated in the blood culture.
