Summary

The increase in bacterial resistance and the overuse of antibiotics have led health authorities to propose incentives for the proper use of antibiotics. Among these measures, the introduction of referring physicians for antibiotic therapy and tele-advisory devices for infectious diseases have shown positive effects on antibiotic prescriptions in hospitals. Today, an increase is observed in the consumption of antibiotics linked to ambulatory prescriptions.

The objective of the project is to deploy tele-advice devices for general practitioners and to evaluate the effects on ambulatory antibiotic dispensing.

AIRBUS-ATB is a prospective, multi-center, population-based, interrupted time-series observational study with a control group with 12 points before and 24 points after the deployment of the intervention in voluntary territories.
