摘要

Background: The increasing use of antimicrobial agents and resistance is becoming a serious problem in pediatric patients. Hence, antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP) is implemented to lessen the consequences. Objectives: This report aimed to demonstrate the impact of ASP on antimicrobials utilization in a referral and tertiary pediatric hospital in Isfahan, Iran. Methods: We launched an ASP for inpatients in March 2018 at the Imam Hussain Hospital, which is a 186-bed pediatrics hospital. Data was collected by ASP multidisciplinary team and using hospital records during February 2017-January 2018 (pre-intervention) and February 2019-January 2020 (post-intervention) periods. Consumption data were expressed as defined daily doses (DDDs) per 100 patient-days (PD). Independent sample t-test and paired t-test were used to assess the significance of differences. The rates of antimicrobials resistance for the most common hospital pathogens were also tracked. Results: Utilization of total antimicrobials decreased meaningfully by 12.41% (from 62.11 DDDs/100 PD in February 2017-January 2018 to 54.40 DDDs/100 PD in February 2019-January 2020; P = 0.024). The results showed that the reduction in non-restricted antimicrobials was less (5.43%) than restricted antimicrobials (27.6%). Conclusions: According to our results, the use of antimicrobials, especially the broad-spectrum ones, and the health burden costs significantly decreased after implementing ASP. Thus, continuous monitoring and educational programs are recommended to reduce the negative effects of using antimicrobials.
