ABSTRACT

Introduction: It is imperative to establish the effectiveness of the empiric antimicrobial therapy in inpatients with abdominal sepsis at Christus Muguerza Hospital, the attachment to international guidelines of empiric antibiotic management, the frequency of microbial species in cultures and its sensitivity to the suggested antibiotics by these guidelines; also, to establish the days of stay and in the ICU.
Materials and methods: The relative risk was calculated to patients who came in to the Hospital with a diagnosis of Intra-abdominal infection which will need surgical management (IIMQ), who of these received management according to guidelines and who didn’t, their follow up and outcomes, if there was change of antibiotic therapy, stay in ICU and as inpatients, and mortality.
Results and conclusions: Every patient received antibiotic therapy, for 20 patients (74.1%), there wasn’t attachment to guidelines, and for the other 7 (25.9%) there was. The days of stay were 11 (SD 6.9) in the attachment group and 10 days (SD 8.1) for the other group. Patients who needed ICU: 10 days (SD3), for the attachment group vs 6 days (SD 3) for the other group. There weren’t fatal cases. In 4 patients in which there was attachment to guidelines, bacteria found were sensitive to the antibiotic used, in 1 patient weren’t. In the No attachment group, 50 % were sensitive and 50% resistant, for a RR of 1.6 (CI 95% 0.54-4.6). Cultures results match with isolated bacteria reported in world literature, so it is deducted that added to this study’s results, antimicrobial management guidelines for patients with IIMQ would be effective in Christus Muguerza Hospital, and its regular use could be recommended.
