    Abstract
    Objectives: To evaluate changes in parental knowledge regarding antibiotic use and antibiotic resistance with an educational intervention given at elementary school parent-teacher association (PTA) meetings. Methods: This was an analytical pre-test/post-test study of an educational intervention given at two elementary schools in the Phoenix metro area. The primary dependent variable was a knowledge measure, calculated as a total score. The changes between the pre- and post-test total score means were compared using a dependent t-test. The a-priori alpha level used was 0.05. Results: The study sample consisted of 25 participants. Study data were collected between September 2007 and December 2007. The mean (SD) pre- and post-test scores were 33.7 (4.4) and 40.7 (2.7), respectively (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The educational intervention presented at elementary school PTA meetings resulted in a significant knowledge increase regarding the appropriate use of antibiotics when pre- and post-test scores were compared.
