Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Incidence & prevalence of multidrug resistant organisms (MDRO) in HA-BSI or VAP quantified in terms of i) hospitalisation, ii) patient bed-days & iii) microbiology culturesTimepoint: Onset of clinical syndrome is on or after day 3 of hospital admission, or within 3 months of significant healthcare exposure. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Severity of disease (requirement for intensive care, duration of hospitalisation, functional status at discharge, mortality), types of antibiotic treatmentTimepoint: 28 days from onset of the last infection episode;Attributable mortality of HA-BSI or VAP caused by MDROs versus susceptible organisms or MDROs of different resistance patterns All-cause mortality of HA-BSI or VAP Timepoint: 28 days from onset of the last infection episode;Bacterial species & phenotypic resistance patterns across the study sites from various geographical regions over the study period.Timepoint: Over the study period;Genomic characteristics in terms of bacterial strains/clones, resistance genes across the study sites from various geographical regionsTimepoint: Over the study period | — |
