- The study focuses on quantifying the resource use and costs associated with infections caused by six drug-resistant pathogens in Europe to highlight the significance of antimicrobial resistance.
- The researchers conducted a systematic review and Bayesian meta-analysis using a variety of medical databases and included studies from different periods to assess the financial impact of these infections.
- The analysis included 37 studies that showed a wide range of excess costs and hospital stay durations related to drug-resistant infections compared to those with drug-susceptible infections, indicating considerable economic burden.
