Abstract


Introduction

Occurring resistive microbial trends is one of basic obstacles in infection disease treatments. prescribing too much antibiotics in medical centers leads to such disorders. -too much antibiotic usage, prescribing antibiotics in virus infections, incomplete treatment period and applying single drug antibiotic diet instead of multiple drug ones are the implicate reasons for antibiotic resistance which leads to increase in the possibility of disease transmission to the other people in the society, treatment expenses, bed confining period, creating new epidemics, and death

Methods

In order to assess the amount of antibiotic use in each unit, a periodical-descriptive study was undertaken by assessing each unit’s antibiotic request from central pharmacy of the hospital during may 22nd - july 21st, and then by dividing the obtained number into the number of the taken beds monthly.

Results

Hematology ward 3 as the most antibiotic consuming unit, had used antibiotics 10/23 times for each patient in that period and in the second grade was intensive care unit of surgery and then iut. the average request for antibiotic for each patient in bed confining period in the total of the units was 3/96 which moderately was satisfying.

Conclusion

Increasing the number of infection control rounds, specified training of the personnel, analyzing the common antibiotics, determining particular antibiotic resistance in high antibiotic consuming units results in better preparation to deal with such increasing trends of resistance to microorganisms; on the other hand the hospital would pay less expenses for determining the antibiotic resistive trends all over the hospital.
