介绍。小儿细菌性脑膜炎在经济上和临床上仍然是一种代价高昂的疾病。假设/差距语句。以前细菌性脑膜炎（BM）的流行病学和成本研究主要集中在成人人群或单一病原体。最近在美国很少有关于儿科医学的大规模研究。我们研究了美国儿童社区获得性与医院细菌性感染的卫生保健资源利用率（HCRU）和相关的发病率和死亡率。使用IBM MarketScan Research数据库来识别患者
Introduction. Paediatric bacterial meningitis remains a costly disease, both financially and clinically.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. Previous epidemiological and cost studies of bacterial meningitis (BM) have largely focused on adult populations or single pathogens. There have been few recent, large-scale studies of pediatric BM in the USA.Aim. We examined healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and associated morbidity and mortality of community-acquired versus nosocomial bacterial infections in children across the USA.Methodology. The IBM MarketScan Research databases were used to identify patients
