Utilização da estratégia de step down para desospitalização e realização de terapia antimicrobiana parenteral ambulatorial (OPAT) em pacientes transplantados / Use of the step down strategy for dehospitalization and performance of outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) in transplanted patients

Abstract: RESUMOOs antimicrobianos da classe dos carbapenêmicos são de suma importância para o tratamento das infecções bacterianas causadas por microrganismos gram negativos produtores de betalactamase de espectro estendido (ESBL). O uso racional desses antimicrobianos é fundamental para o sucesso terapêutico do tratamento e para redução do impacto no desenvolvimento posterior de resistência bacteriana a esses fármacos. Para otimizar a monitorização desses tratamentos, faz necessário o seu gerenciamento através de prog… Show more

“…In this case, the result was related to the higher cost of ertapenem, a carbapenem used on an outpatient basis as compared with meropenem, used for hospitalized patients. 10,13 Another study with 39 patients designed specifically to evaluate the cost-utility of OPAT for SUS, however, showed that this treatment modality was effective in this regard by allowing overall savings of 31.86% from the hospital perspective and 26.53% from the SUS perspective, with favorable clinical outcomes and perception of quality of life. 14 Regarding OPAT in PHI, two other studies were published.…”
