Evaluating prevalence, incidence rates and mortality attributable to antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections and potential biases caused by underuse of blood culture in Wahidin Hospital, a tertiary-care hospital in South Sulawesi, Indonesia (360G-Wellcome-219651_Z_19_Z)
The burden of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection (ARBI) in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) is largely unknown. Microbiology data is rarely analyzed and reported. Few publications available did not take account of bias caused by low number of blood culture utilization, categorize ARBI based on infection origin (community-onset or hospital-onset) and evaluate mortality attributable to ARBI. I propose to evaluate the situation of ARBI in a tertiary-care hospital in 2015-2018 in Sulawesi, Indonesia. I will analyze three routinely available data sets; including microbiology, hospital admission and antibiotic prescription data sets. I will use standard methods to estimate prevalence, incidence rates and mortality attributable to ARBI among bacteremia patients. I will categorize infection origin as recommended by WHO GLASS. I will evaluate and describe timing of blood culture collection and antibiotic prescription among patients who had parenteral antibiotic prescribed. I will evaluate whether reported parameters for ARBI were associated with timing of blood culture collection and antibiotic prescription. The results from this study will improve our standings on ARBI, diagnostic stewardship and antibiotic stewardship in Indonesia, and could be used to inform healthcare workers and policy makers in the country and other LMICs on resource allocation and intervention for actions against ARBI.
