Determinants of inappropriate antibiotic prescription in primary care in developed countries with general practitioners as gatekeepers: a systematic review and construction of a fr... by Mattijs E Numans, Frederike L Büchner, Martijn Sijbom, Nicholas H Saadah, Mark G J de Boer

“…Objectives This study aimed to identify determinants of inappropriate antibiotic prescription in primary care in developed countries and to construct a framework with the determinants to help understand which actions can best be targeted to counteract development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).Design A systematic review of peer-reviewed studies reporting determinants of inappropriate antibiotic prescription published through 9 September 2021 in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library was performed.Setting All studies focusing on primary care in developed countries where general practitioners (GPs) act as gatekeepers for referral to medical specialists and hospital care were included.Results Seventeen studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were used for the analysis which identified 45 determinants of inappropriate antibiotic prescription. …”
