The selected sites for this research project were the adult surgical admissions units at two acute National Health Service Trust Hospitals in South West England with different prescribing methods for gentamicin, one based on patient weight (site 1) and one based on patient height (site 2). Site 1 was a larger, urban teaching hospital with 797 inpatient beds; site 2 was a smaller, rural District General Hospital with 423 inpatient beds. Study participants for the qualitative interviews included all grades of doctors, nurses and pharmacists working on the adult surgical admissions units at the two sites.
