- Abstract
- Most clinical guidelines are developed by high income countries institutions with little consideration given to either the evidence base for interventions in low and middle income countries, or the specific challenges low and middle income countries’ health systems may face in implementing recommendations In our previous studies, we noticed a misuse and overuse of antibiotics, and a poor match with the bacteria in concern The aim of this study was to develop, based on the results of antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria isolated in surgical site infections, and antibiotics available, a guideline for the rational use of antibiotics in surgery in order to improve the quality of antibiotic prophylaxis, antibiotherapy and reduce the rate of antimicrobial resistance in Benin The study is a part of the project named “MUltidisciplinary STrategy for Prevention and Infection Control(MUST PIC)
