Antibiotic Use in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Practicing Integrative Medicine

Neonatal Infection Clinical Trial

Official title:
Antibiotic Use in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Practicing Integrative Medicine

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this study is to describe the antibiotic use in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Germany that is practising integrative medicine. The investigators will review hospital records to find out how often and how long antibiotics were given to newborns; compare antibiotic use to other NICU in the same area; describe how sick infected newborns were (comparing those treated with or without antibiotics); and describe which anthroposophic medicines were used, how often and if there were safety problems.

Clinical Trial Description

A retrospective study, analysing antibiotic use in a level 2 neonatology intensive care unit (NICU) in Germany over a 4-year period from 2014 to 2017. The study will analyse frequency of antibiotic prescribing; compare antibiotic use to other level 2 NICU; compare clinical and laboratory parameters among neonates with infectious disease diagnosis managed with or without antibiotics; use and tolerability of anthroposophic medicinal products. ;
