Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary  

     The Multiplex PCR results of all the patients included in the study will be noted. The resistant genes expressed by them will also be documented. The proportion of patient samples showing carbapenem resistance will be calculated. The proportion of patients with infection by multiple organisms will also be calculated. The antibiotics used in the treatment of these patients will be documented. The antibiotic usage and mortality among those infected with organisms expressing genes for carbapenem resistance will also be noted. The proportion of patients with organisms showing Carbapenem resistance (using multiplex PCR in post COVID era patients and the available culture sensitivity reports of patients admitted in pre COVID era) will be compared.
