P090: Importance of the information system in the fight against multi-drug resistant bacteria

2013 
Results Overall 41 hospitals (50% of the hospitals in the region) participated in this investigation. 66% of them reported having a system of continuous monitoring of MDRB for the identification of clustered cases and 39% of the hospitals reported having a similar device for the identification of re-hospitalized cases. In addition, 63% of respondents indicated that they did not develop transmission means for the patients with MDRB to inform the hosting facility during a subsequent hospitalization. When a case of patients with MDRB occurs in a hospital, 88% of them track cases of re-hospitalized patients thanks to patient records and not via the administrative software. 57% of the hospitals reported to implement a policy of MDRB monitoring. More than half patients considered to be at risk (eg, multiple hospitalizations, previous history of antibiotic treatment) was concerned in the majority of sectors welcoming patients with emerging MDRB. The most frequently screened MDRB are respectively MRSA (46%), carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (44%), glycopeptide-resistant Enterococci (44%) and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (41%). Conclusion The components of the MDRB control which are collected within the hospitals of the region have shown critical points, especially in the monitoring of patients with MDRB. Specific policy focusing MDRB should be reinforced in the region. Disclosure of interest None declared.
