| Abstract: | ABSTRACT: Background: Treatment with Antimicrobial agents appears to be so efficacious and rational that they are occasionally prescribed for dubious indications and for extended than required where the priority for adverse effects and development of resistance is hardly any. AMR could be a global problem. Eradication of AMR requires a big reduction within the use of antimicrobials. As a result, some antimicrobials are restricted and prescribed only under the supervision of a physician for which they are grouped under Restricted Antimicrobial Agents. Objective: This study illustrates the factors influencing the need for prescribing Restricted Antimicrobials and evaluating the patient outcomes. Restricted Antimicrobials are regularly classified under a ‘traffic light system’. While this isn't a necessary need, one of these machines is diagnosed throughout many Australian healthcare centers and it's far usually taken into consideration to be an effective device for teaching prescribers approximately a local policy of restricted antimicrobials. Methodology: The study was conducted over a period of 6 months at territory hospital. A total of 114 patients were considered. This study was conducted on those patients who got admitted in general wards. Results: Study carried out in those subjects revealed that most of the cases were of CAI and had got admitted due to LRTI (18%) followed by surgery (17%) and the highly prescribed RA was found to be Meropenem (41%). Patients who got specific therapy got less no. of hospital stay. Samples were collected from subjects for culture tests before starting therapy and was found that most of the organisms detected to be KLEBSILLA (23.4%) and E. COLI (10.6%) and maximum no. Of organisms detected were found to be resistant to Ciprofloxacin (13.2%) and Levofloxacin (10.6%). Outcome showed that 89% of the patients got successfully treated and discharged. Conclusion: AMS can offer all healthcare professionals an intention to save the public from an inappropriate use of AMR and help in achieving positive outcomes in patients. In our study, we observed that patients receiving specific therapy benefited more than patients on empirical therapy and surgical prophylaxis. Through our study, we conclude that RA has greater impact in treating various infections and decreasing resistance. |
