At the national level, the percentage of use of more than one antibiotic in the treatment of Mild/moderate pneumonia was 2.4% (n=106) with a maximum of 30% and minimum of 0%. The results show a very good overall compliance to STG and needs to be maintained, if not improved.
By level of health facilities, the percentages were 0% for hospital (n=6), 5.8% for health centers (n=19) and 1.7% for health stations (n=81) with insignificant mean variation (P<0.05).
In relative terms, hospitals have shown absolute compliance with the STG followed by health stations (Figure 25).
The percentages varied in the six regions (Figure 26) between 1.5% (Oromia) and 25% (Addis Ababa). The results in Oromia are very encouraging while the situation in Addis Ababa needs further investigation
