Multicenter Study Comparative Study
[Use of antibiotics for the treatment of multiresistant gram positive cocci infections in critical patients].
This study has been designed to know the use of these antibiotics (ATB) in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). ⋯ The most common use of this ATB was to treat ICU-acquired infections. VAN was the most frequently used drug. Treatments with LZD were modified less frequently for clinical failure and this drug was the one most used in rescue therapies. This information indicates an appropriate use of these ATB in an important percentage of critically patients.
