Nuffield Trust analysis of hospitals in England Early and effective treatment of ABSSSI is critical to optimise patient recovery and also help to avoid potentially lengthy and costly hospital stays. In 2013-2014, there were 104,598 recorded cases of cellulitis (a type of ABSSSI) treated in secondary care in the UK. Of these, 69,229 hospital admissions involved a mean and median bed stay of 6.2 and three days, respectively. 10 The average cost of an NHS hospital stay is around £400 per day 11 and bed capacity in hospitals is currently a major issue for the NHS. On average, more than 95% of hospital beds were occupied every day in winter 2016 (the target is a maximum of 85%) and on a single busiest day, 4,390 additional beds were opened to cope with the extra pressure. 12 This article is supported by Cardiome UK Ltd.

About ABSSSI ABSSSI are bacterial infections of skin and associated tissues primarily caused by Gram- positive pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. While ABSSSI are common, these infections can be serious and may be life-threatening. The majority of all skin and soft tissue infections in hospital outpatients are caused by streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus, and approximately 15.8% of these S. aureus infections in the UK are estimated to be caused by MRSA. 9
