We compared our previous hospital-based antibiotic protocol and an optimum modified one by reviewing hospital records of children younger than 18 years with complicated appendicitis between 2010–2016. The modified protocol showed no infectious morbidity, which is significantly different from that of our previous protocol (mortality rate, 21.4%). An optimum hospital-based antibiotic protocol for complicated appendicitis can reduce the infectious morbidity rate without increasing hospital cost.
