Antimicrobial Stewardship Program: actions and education in Brazilian pediatric intensive care units.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
to evaluate the educational elements and actions of the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PED-ICU) in Brazil. this was a multicenter, prospective study carried out between October 2022 and January 2023, using an electronic form. Educational actions for professionals and patients on microbial resistance were analyzed, as well as interventions to improve prescribing, such as prospective audits, feedback and pre-authorization. The data was grouped by location, care profile and number of beds and analyzed using parametric and non-parametric statistical methods. of the 219 PED-ICUs with ASP in place, 44.7% were in the Southeast and 58.9% carried out continuing education for professionals. Only 6.8% promoted educational activities for patients and companions, concentrated in public hospitals with more than 200 beds. The education component showed weaknesses, especially in smaller hospitals, while actions to improve prescribing were more consolidated, with 70.8% implemented. Private hospitals and those in the Southeast and South stood out in terms of adherence to management practices. the study revealed significant disparities in the implementation of ASPs in Brazilian PED-ICUs, highlighting the need to strengthen continuing education and engage all those involved in order to increase adherence, reduce antimicrobial resistance and improve pediatric care.
background(1) ASP in Brazilian PED-ICU shows gaps in antimicrobial education and prescription.
background(2) Insufficient education compromises the rational use of antimicrobials in Brazil.
background(3) Regional inequality challenges ASP in public and private hospitals.
background(4) Larger, private hospitals lead the way in adherence to ASP in PED-ICU in Brazil.
background(5) Educational strategies and audits strengthen antimicrobial control in ASP.
