Abstract:
Too short antibiotic course carries the risk of treatment failure, whereas unnecessary long antibiotic course may be associated with antibiotic resistance, antibiotic-related adverse effects, and more costs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of HAP in patients admitted for receiving long-term care according to the antibiotics duration.
