Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cost changes with an Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy Program (OPAT) treatment compared to standard intrahospital therapy.

    Total OPAT costs will be estimated from actual costs and readmissions costs after adverse events that would not have occurred if patients had been treated as inpatients. Actual costs will be obtained from the annual financial records of the service during the study period. These will include staff salaries, medications, equipment, and other costs. To estimate the costs of conventional care that would have been incurred if patients were treated as inpatients, it will be assumed that intrahospital stay would be equal to the OPAT care with the same diagnosis.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Saved bed days

    1 year

Study Arms (2)

Outpatient antimicrobial therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Included patients will receive outpatient antimicrobial therapy according to their infectious disease.

Other: Place of treatment

Inpatient antimicrobial therapy

OTHER

Included patients will receive intrahospital antimicrobial therapy according to their infectious disease.

Other: Place of treatment

Interventions

Patients with an infectious diseases have to be treated with a specify antimicrobial therapy. The differences between the arms is about the possibility to continue with the treatment in or out of the hospital.
