Article Synopsis
- Prophylactic antibiotics are important for reducing infection rates and healthcare costs, but current quantitative methods fail to capture the complexities of decision-making in surgical settings.
- This study investigates the antibiotic decision-making etiquette in surgical prophylaxis at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital in Ethiopia through qualitative methods like interviews and record reviews.
- Findings indicate infrequent discussions about surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) during ward rounds, lack of clear documentation and standard protocols, and a delegation of responsibility for prescribing SAP primarily to junior doctors and anesthesiologists, leading to deviations from best practices.
