Antibiotic use in Canadian neonatal intensive care units: a national survey for developing antimicrobial stewardship targets
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 June 2023
Abstract
A survey was conducted among Canadian tertiary neonatal intensive care units. Of the 27 sites who responded, 9 did not have any form of antimicrobial stewardship, and 11 used vancomycin for empirical coverage in late-onset-sepsis evaluations. We detected significant variations in the diagnostic criteria for urinary tract infection and ventilator-associated pneumonia.
