When the COVID-19 pandemic landed in the United States, and particularly once cases began to grow substantially in March, the entire health care system suffered, but the safety net was exceptionally hard hit. The “health care safety net,” an ill-defined term that encompasses public and some nonprofit hospitals that take care of the poor and uninsured, was on the front lines of taking care of the bulk of individuals who had contracted COVID-19. These hospitals tended to suffer from a lack of adequate supplies and relatively low reimbursement in a system that was already financially weak. (Am J Public Health.

Abstract Background Antibiotic overutilization during the COVID-19 pandemic has been reported, despite relatively infrequent bacterial co-infection. We explored antibiotic utilization before, during and after the COVID-19 surge in Michigan. Methods Cross-sectional study at an 877-bed hospital in Detroit, Michigan from January 2019 through May 2020. Measures: Count of COVID-19 hospital admissions by day. Monthly antibiotic utilization for formulary agents used to treat pneumonia were measured using monthly days of therapy (DOT) per 1000 patient days present and the National Health Care Safety Network Standardized Antimicrobial Administration Ratio (SAAR). Descriptive analysis was utilized. Results The first COVID-19 case was detected March 11, 2020 and peaked in early April (Figure 1). Antibiotic utilization is demonstrated in Figure 2. The COVID-19 peak was associated with increased use of multiple antibiotics; notably, DOT per 1000 days present for ceftriaxone, cefepime and doxycycline were 85.43, 79.42 and 71.56, respectively in April. The institutional all-antibacterial SAAR was significantly reduced in May at 0.96, p=0.0022, after the COVID-19 surge. Figure 1 Figure 2 Conclusion We observed increased utilization of multiple antibiotics during the COVID-19 surge, and reduction in the all-antibacterial SAAR after the surge. More robust information is needed to promote optimal antibiotic use for patients with COVID-19 infections. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures
