Introduction

The cumulative antibiogram report presented in this online interactive tool includes yearly antibiogram information for the following sites:

  • Royal Alexandra Hospital (RAH)
  • Grey Nuns Community Hospital (GNH)
  • Misericordia Community Hospital (MIS)
  • Community Hospitals (includes Devon General Hospital, Alberta Hospital Edmonton, East Edmonton Health Centre, Edmonton General Continuing Care Centre, Northeast Community Health Centre, St. Joseph's Auxillary Hospital, Leduc Community Hospital, Sturgeon Community Hospital, Westview Health Centre, Fort Saskachewan Community Hospital) & Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital (GRH)
  • Long Term Care
  • Community [including Northeast Community Health Centre (NECHC)]
  • North Zone: Healthcare Centres & Community Sites
  • Central Zone: Red Deer Health Centre (RDHC) & Community

This report is meant to be used as a local guide for best empiric antimicrobial therapeutic choice. Empiric use of an antibiotic is recommended only if ≥ 95% of isolates for a given organism test susceptible to that antibiotic. This threshold, however, may not always be practical. ≥ 90% susceptible rate may at times be considered as an acceptable threshold in organisms known to exhibit multiple antimicrobial drug resistance. These tables do not include every organism that could be encountered. Only the more common clinical pathogens are included. Data is presented only for those organism–antimicrobial agent combinations with ≥ 30 isolates. All duplicate isolates have been excluded.

Any feedback or requests should be made to Dr. M.C. Lee at Alberta Precision Laboratories, Mao-Cheng.Lee@albertaprecisionlabs.ca
