Abstract:
Objective To explore intervention efficacy of clinical application of antimicrobial agents in internal medicine departments of a hospital.Methods 1 880 medical records from internal medicine and pediatrics departments this hospital in July-December 2010 were randomly selected as control group (before intervention),and 2 207 medical records in July-December 2011 were as trial group (after intervention),antimicrobial use of two groups was compared.Results The over-all usage rate of antimicrobial agents after intervention was lower than before intervention (48.12% vs 58.62%,χ2 =44. 45,P <0.001).Except endocrinology,pediatrics and hematology departments,the usage rates of antimicrobial agents in the other departments after intervention were all obviously lower than before intervention(all P <0.05).The usage rate of antimicrobial agents in endocrinology and hematology departments were both low(<40%),which met the requirements of Ministry of Health.Conclusion Comprehensive intervention in clinical use of antimicrobial agents reduced the usage rate of antimicrobial agents in internal medicine and pediatrics departments in this hospital.
