The inpatient module

Data collection for inpatient departments includes gathering detailed data for hospitalized inpatients at 8 o’clock on the day of the PPS whereby detailed data is collected for those patients receiving an antimicrobial treatment. 

Los datos esenciales a recopilar son:

  • the patients’ age and gender
  • agente antimicrobiano
  • dosis por administración
  • número de dosis por día
  • vía de administración

Besides antibiotics, antifungals, antimycotics, antivirals, antibiotics for the treatment of tuberculosis and antimalarials are also surveyed. 

Otras variables obligatorias incluyen:

  • the anatomical site of infection or prophylaxis according to a list of provided reasons for treatment or prophylaxis, 
  • indication for therapy (community versus hospital acquired infection or prophylaxis) and
  • whether the treatment choice is determined by detected micro-organisms and available microbiological or biomarker data. 

For the optional HAI module, extra details on invasive devices are collected (e.g. peripheral vascular catheter, indwelling urinary catheter etc.).

La información en común son el número de admisiones y el número de camas en cada departamento.
