Abstract
This peer-reviewed presentation examined the role of hospital antibiograms as essential tools in antimicrobial stewardship. It explored stratification of data by patient location, infection type, and resistance profile, and addressed issues of selective reporting and intrinsic resistance. Practical examples were provided to demonstrate how antibiogram data can support evidence-based prescribing, inform stewardship metrics, and track emerging resistance trends.
