2 Figure 1 Results from the Amelioration of Use of β‐lactams and Pneumcococcal Resistance to Penicillin G Epidemiological Intervention (AUBEPPIN) Study in France [40]. This 5‐month study was conducted in children attending kindergartens within three geographically distinct populations. One population (Group 1) was subjected to educational interventions designed to reduce antibiotic use for upper respiratory tract infections (including the use of rapid diagnostic tests for group A streptococcal pharyngitis), one population (Group 2) was subjected to similar interventions designed to improve the dosage and duration of antibiotic therapy for these infections, and the other population (Group 3) received no intervention at all. (a) Decrease in antibiotic sales in Groups 1 and 2 compared with Group 3. (b) Regression coefficient for monthly reduction in rate of oropharyngeal colonization with penicillin‐resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRSP) in each group.
