Description

Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health concern, but there is limited data linking laboratory resistance testing to clinical outcomes, especially from Low-and-Middle-Income countries, including African nations. This is a project collecting prospective data about bloodstream infections caused by Enterobacterales bacteria in African hospitals in 2020-22. A central focus was the impact of 3rd generation cephalosporin (3GC) resistance on patient mortality. In the main study, n=8 hospitals in eight different countries contributed to this project. Preliminary work involved collection of descriptive information from these 8 hospitals, including access to antibiotics in hospital pharmacies. Information was collected for infected patients and matched non-infected patients in same hospitals.

The MBIRA study collected data about hospitals, patients, bacterial isolates and antibiotic use. The “mbira_hospital” dataset contains information collected as a one-off event as part of the “hospital” form and the “mbira_pharmacy” contains information on antibiotic availability in pharmacies that were collected each month. Further datasets will be made available at a later date.

Hospital-level data

The hospital-level data – this is in the form of two small data tables. One relates to the “hospital form” (a one-off data collection, see Appendix 1) and the second relates to the “antibiotic form” (repeated monthly collection of data about antibiotic availability in pharmacies, see Appendix 2). These are two small data tables (mbira_hospital.xls and mbira_pharmacy.xls) that are in the form of excel spreadsheets.
