One of the major goals of any medical center is to provide safe, cost-effective drug therapy. To ensure rational antimicrobial therapy and control hospital drug costs, a criteria-based antibiotic surveillance program was developed. This method of antibiotic restriction provided exceptional cost savings in our institution. Clinical pharmacy interventions resulted in physician education and an 18% increase in compliance with the program criteria producing in a one-year period a $43,000 cost avoidance for antibiotic expenditures.
任何医疗中心的主要目标之一是提供安全、具有成本效益的药物治疗。为确保合理的抗菌治疗并控制医院药物成本，制定了一项基于标准的抗生素监测计划。这种抗生素限制方法在我们机构节省了大量成本。临床药学干预带来了医生教育，并且项目标准的依从性提高了18%，在一年时间内避免了43,000美元的抗生素支出。
