Abstract

We compared 2 data sources--antimicrobial orders and bar-coded medication administration (BCMA)--for calculating the number of grams used, grams used based on defined daily dose, and days of therapy at one Veterans Affairs Medical Center for 2009-2010. The number of grams used calculated from BCMA data provided the most informative antimicrobial utilization measure.
