No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of not reporting antibiotic susceptibility tests on antibiotic consumption for Enterococcus faecalis positive urine cultures in adult hospitalized patients. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of this intervention on antibiotic prescription rates as well as on antibiotic consumption according to: patient gender, type of antibiotic therapy (probabilistic/documented) and diagnosis (urinary tract infection or colonization). It is hypothesized that antibiotic consumption is lower after the application of the absence of antibiotic susceptibility reporting compared to before.
