MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients prescribed unnecessary antibiotic prophylaxis for a dental visit between 2011 and 2015 using the IBM Watson Health Marketscan Commercial Claims/Encounters, Medicare Supplemental, Coordination of Benefits Research databases. Reference Suda, Calip and Zhou 2 Patients were included if they were enrolled in commercial dental insurance and received unnecessary antibiotic prophylaxis. Antibiotic prophylaxis was defined as a≤ 2 day supply of antibiotics dispensed within 7 days prior to a dental visit. Patients with a hospitalization or extra-oral infection 14 days prior to antibiotic prophylaxis were excluded. Unnecessary antibiotic prophylaxis was defined as prophylaxis in patients who did not undergo a procedure that manipulated the gingiva or tooth periapex and did not have an appropriate cardiac diagnosis. Patients with prosthetic joints were categorized as unnecessary (without a cardiac condition). Reference Suda, Calip and Zhou 2 Patients with multiple eligible visits were allowed to re-enter the cohort if visits were> 7 days apart.
