Abstrakt: Leveraging the capabilities of a microbiological clinical analytics tool, this study delves into quantifying the public health impact of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Focusing on eight predominant antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the study utilizes University Hospital Vienna’s data to calculate the burden of antibiotic resistant infections in disability-adjusted life years. The results highlight the potential of extended analytics tools in epidemiological research and underscore the pressing challenge of antimicrobial drug resistance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
