    The water-cut rises quickly and the remaining oil distribution is complex when the ultra-low permeability reservoir enters the high water cut stage. The comprehensive use of reservoir engineering, dynamic monitoring, numerical simulation, core experiments and other methods, this paper systematically summarizes three types of water-driving law and distribution characteristics of remaining oil, which are pore-fracture flow, pore-fracture flow and fracture flow. It is considered that the horizontal water drive is mainly controlled by material source, well pattern and fracture, while the vertical water drive is mainly controlled by reservoir heterogeneity, water line distance, injection-production well distance, etc. , the patterns of residual oil formed by different types of percolation are different, in this paper, 7 macroscopic patterns of remaining oil distribution, such as well pattern control, heterogeneity control, single sand body connected control, longitudinal interference, injection-production non-correspondence and non-main reservoir unutilized, are summarized, in the light of different remaining oil patterns, the paper puts forward the adjustment direction of tapping potential, such as optimizing injection-production structure, optimizing injection-production mode

    Abstract Objectives In this study, we describe the patterns of antibiotic prescription for neonates based on World Health Organization’s (WHO) Essential Medicines List Access, Watch, and Reserve (AWaRe), and the Management of Antibiotic Classification (MAC) Guidelines in China. Methods One-day point-prevalence surveys (PPS) on antimicrobial prescriptions were conducted on behalf of hospitalized neonates in China from September 1 and November 30, annually from 2017 to 2019. Results Data was collected for a total of 2674 neonatal patients from 15 hospitals in 9 provinces across China of which 1520 were newborns who received at least one antibiotic agent. A total of 1943 antibiotic prescriptions were included in the analysis. The most commonly prescribed antibiotic was meropenem (11.8%). The most common reason for prescribing antibiotic to neonates was pneumonia (44.2%). There were 419 (21.6%), 1343 (69.1%) and 6 (0.3%) antibiotic prescriptions in the Access, Watch and Reserve groups, respectively. According to MAC Guidelines in China, there were 1090 (56.1%) antibiotic agents in the Restricted and 414 (21.3%) in the Special group. Conclusion Broad-spectrum antibiotics included in the Watch and Special groups were likely to be overused in Chinese neonates

    Use of the WHO Access, Watch, and Reserve classification to define patterns of hospital antibiotic use (AWaRe) : an analysis of paediatric survey data from 56 countries

    Background Improving the quality of hospital antibiotic use is a major goal of WHO's global action plan to combat antimicrobial resistance. The WHO Essential Medicines List Access, Watch, and Reserve (AWaRe) classification could facilitate simple stewardship interventions that are widely applicable globally. We aimed to present data on patterns of paediatric AWaRe antibiotic use that could be used for local and national stewardship interventions. Methods 1-day point prevalence survey antibiotic prescription data were combined from two independent global networks: the Global Antimicrobial Resistance, Prescribing, and Efficacy in Neonates and Children and the Global Point Prevalence Survey on Antimicrobial Consumption and Resistance networks. We included hospital inpatients aged younger than 19 years receiving at least one antibiotic on the day of the survey. The WHO AWaRe classification was used to describe overall antibiotic use as assessed by the variation between use of Access, Watch, and Reserve antibiotics, for neonates and children and for the commonest clinical indications. Findings Of the 23 572 patients included from 56 countries, 18305 were children (77.7%) and 5267 were neonates (22.3%). Access antibiotic use in children ranged from 7.8% (China) to 61.2% (Slovenia) of all antibiotic prescriptions. The use of Watch antibiotics in children was highest in Iran (77.3%) and lowest in Finland (23.0%). In neonates, Access antibiotic use was highest in Singapore (100.0%) and lowest in China (24.2%). Reserve antibiotic use was low in all countries. Major differences in clinical syndrome-specific patterns of AWaRe antibiotic use in lower respiratory tract infection and neonatal sepsis were observed between WHO regions and countries. Interpretation There is substantial global variation in the proportion of AWaRe antibiotics used in hospitalised neonates and children. The AWaRe classification could potentially be used as a simple traffic light metric of appropriate antibiotic use. Future efforts should focus on developing and evaluating paediatric antibiotic stewardship programmes on the basis of the AWaRe index. Copyright (C) 2019 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd
