Prevalence surveys of infection and antibiotic usage in hospitals have been performed in U.S.A. on many times, but have never been performed in France. Conducted in a 529 beds hospital, this survey has shown that: - 38% of patients had an infection, - 41% of patients received antimicrobial therapy, - 61% of infections had not a microbiological proof. This prevalence survey is a useful aid for the bearing of the actions of the department of infectious pathology wich supports infection and antibiotherapy in each of their aspects in the whole hospital.
美国已多次对医院感染和抗生素使用情况进行患病率调查，但法国从未开展过此类调查。在一家拥有529张床位的医院进行的这项调查显示：- 38%的患者发生感染，- 41%的患者接受了抗菌治疗，- 61%的感染没有微生物学证据。这项患病率调查有助于感染病理科开展相关工作，该科室在全院范围内全面支持感染控制和抗菌治疗工作的各个方面。
