Results After intervention, the antibiotics usage rate of inpatients and outpatients were lower than that of 2015 (50.02% and 25.72%, P<0.05). In 2016, the usage intensity of antibiotics was 50.59%, while it was 62.39% in 2015. At the same time, the microbial test sample submission rate increased from 13.96% to 27.49% (P<0.05).In 2016, the clean operation preventive usage rate of antibiotics decreased month by month.
