Antimicrobial-resistant organisms are an emerging problem in the ICU. Therapy cycling empiric antibiotics between various classes may influence bacterial resistance patterns. Understanding the impact of cycling on the appropriate treatment of suspect
Antibiotic resistant bacteria are a significant problem of public health importance, and are responsible for substantial hospital morbidity, mortality and cost. Estimates of cost vary, however, depending on the organism of interest, the study design
