“…The second is the MABUSE network (Medical Antibiotic Use Surveillance and Evaluation) that aims at integrating ambulatory and hospital care antibiotic use and resistance surveillance and research at regional levels. The MABUSE project initially included an interhospital comparison of antibiotic use and expenditures at university hospitals, and ambulatory care antibiotic use surveillance at the regional level [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. In a pilot study (INTERUNI-II) using retrospective data for the years 1998 to 2000, we estimated antibiotic use density in university hospitals to be ~60 DDD/100 in the surgical services, and ~80 DDD/100 in the medical services, respectively [5].…”

Trends in Antibiotic Use at a University Hospital: Defined or Prescribed Daily Doses? Patient Days or Admissions as Denominator?

et al. 2006

The DDD/100 patient days data format overestimated antibiotic use density changes in this hospital both in medicine (81% vs 48%) as well as in surgery (69% vs 39%) when compared with PDD/100 patient days. Due to changes in the number of admissions and length of stay over the years, the percent change between the two periods expressed in doses per 100 patient days in addition differed substantially from that estimated by using the DDD per admission or PDD per admission data format. Studies evaluating the evolution of hospital antibiotic use need to address the limitations and adequacy of the different data formats.
