Abstract
The article is devoted to a new hospital-replacing technology – outpatient parenteral antibacterial therapy (APAT). The indications, contraindications, techniques and clinical effectiveness of APAT are discussed in detail. The benefits of APAT are realized when time-dependent antimicrobial agents are prescribed. Consistent drug delivery is achieved through the use of elastomeric pumps. The use of APAT increases patients' motivation for treatment and reduces the burden on medical staff. The introduction of APAT, in addition to clinical benefits, contributes to significant savings in the financial resources of a medical institution.
