Abstract
This was a prospective observational study performed between January and October 2021. Antimicrobial consumption was classified according to AWaRe and expressed as daily defined doses (DDD/1000 patient-days). Watch group antibiotic consumption demonstrated a strong correlation with carbapenem resistance among both clinical and total isolates, but Acinetobacter baumannii resistance did not correlate with antimicrobial consumption. Efforts to reduce antimicrobial consumption are needed; however, prevention and control guidelines are also a cornerstone to better results.
