Article Synopsis
- The study focused on antimicrobial resistance and usage trends at Saint George Hospital University Medical Center in Beirut during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, analyzing data from 2015 to 2020.
- It found a decrease in the isolation density of blood stream infections (BSI) and drug-resistant infections during 2020, with significant drops in carbapenem-resistant and difficult-to-treat infections.
- The report attributed these positive trends to effective antimicrobial stewardship and infection control measures, indicating that the pandemic did not worsen existing resistance issues.
