ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To make clear the antimicrobials used for inpatients in our hospital from September 1999 to March 2000 METHODS:We sampled the records of discharged patients at the ratio of 1/3 of sickbeds in our hospital,and filled in "the questionnaire of antimicrobials used in clinical department" item by item,finally,we carried out comprehensive analysis RESU_LTS:More than half was administration of single and basic antimicrobial Combined use of antimicrobials for severe and mixed infections was rational The rate of using antimicrobials was high(79 64%),especially in preventing perioperative infections,reached nearly 100% The starting-point was high in choice of drug and the newly-developed,special and expensive drugs occupied the front place in order of consumption Combined use of drugs was unduly prevalent Most of treatment depended on experience The rate of bacterial drug resistance test was only performed in 10% of patients CONCLUSION:Rational use of drugs is the main trend,however,the measure directed against existing problem should be worked out
