. A PROSPECTIVE OBSERVATIONAL STUDY ON In the treatment with empirical antimicrobials, azithromycin was the most common antibiotic used among the patients and there was no change in the treatment pattern after obtaining the culture results. Key words: Empirical Antimicrobials, Medical Intensive Care Unit, Escalation, De-escalation To evaluate the de- escalation process based on culture report. To calculate the defined daily dose for these antibiotics during the study period and to compare the drug utilization in different departments Study Design A prospective observational study on drug utilization pattern of Patients in whom antibiotics were de-escalated had a trend toward a lower.87 Infectious focus multicenter observational prospective study of patients with The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of de-escalation from Most of the studies that support de-escalation are observational, retrospective and susceptible to at least one of the antibiotics included in the experimental arm. Antibiotic de-escalation for bloodstream infections and pneumonia: controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies assessing adults with Broad-spectrum empirical therapy is common, even when clinical signs of infection are absent. Fewer than one in three inpatients have their regimens narrowed within 5 days of starting empirical antimicrobials. Improved diagnostic methods and continued education are needed to guide discontinuation of antimicrobials. Antibiotic de-escalation is a mechanism where the provision of In this observational, retrospective study based in a tertiary-level ICU in De-escalation of antimicrobial treatment in neutropenic patients with severe sepsis: results from an observational study. Mokart D, Slehofer G, Lambert J, Sannini A, Chow-Chine L, Brun JP, Berger P, Duran S, Faucher M, Blache JL, Saillard C, Vey N, Leone M. Comment in Kollef et al. Designed a prospective observational study on VAP in 20 ICUs in the USA. 23 De-escalation occurred in 22.1% of the patients. Giantsou et al. Also conducted a prospective observational study on VAP at a university hospital in Greece. 24 De-escalation occurred in 40.5% of the patients. Antibiotic de-escalation, which consists of the initial institution of in nosocomial pneumonia (NP), a prospective observational study was results from an observational study prospectively collected observational vious studies have shown that de-escalation is safe [4 6]. PDF | Objective To evaluate the prevalence of antibiotic de-escalation in patients diagnosed with severe sepsis or septic shock at a public academic tertiary hospital and to evaluate antibiotic adequacy and culture positivity. Methods The prevalence of antibiotic de-escalation, This retrospective study showed that de-escalation and discontinuation of antibiotic treatment are feasible in the pre-engraftment phase of allogeneic HSCT, with failures responding well to restarting antibiotic therapy and similar rates of fever relapses or mortality compared with In a prospective, observational study conducted in Spain, de-escalation of antibiotic therapy in patients with sepsis was associated with Lim et al. Use of antibiotics in surgery in Malaysia J Infect Dev Ctries 2015; 9(11):1264-1271. 1265 important guide in the development and implementation of an effective ASP. Methodology A prospective observational study was conducted in two surgical wards at a tertiary hospital in Malaysia. Clinical study. This prospective observational study was conducted at three ICUs within the Department of Anaesthesiology, University Hospital, LMU Munich, Germany. The study protocol ( identifier NCT01793012) was approved the Institutional Review Board of the Medical Faculty of the LMU Munich, Germany. Early de-escalation of antibiotic treatment was performed in 25% of the A retrospective observational study based on a prospective database De-escalation after empirical treatment with meropenem was performed in less of prospective studies of de-escalation in non-immunosuppressed critically ill In several observational studies, the authors found rates of de-escalation to be Thus, the purpose of this study was to measure the frequency of antibiotic de-escalation for one commonly used combination of empiric antibiotic therapy in an academic, tertiary care medical center with an established antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP) in order to describe a plausible de-escalation benchmark. Studies were included if they reported data on any of the four predefined de-escalation of therapy, switch from intravenous to oral treatment, therapeutic in UK adults: a multicentre prospective observational cohort study. The guidelines for an appropriate use of antibiotic therapy recommend de-escalation as soon as the culture sensitivity results are available.There was a great need to study the frequency of de-escalation, We carried out a prospective observational study enrolling patients admitted to the ICU with sepsis from 01/02/2014 to 01/03/2015.
