DABT abbreviation for "dual antiplatelet therapy"


Explanation:
From what I have found DABT stands for the english medical term "dual antiplatlet therapy" which is used as a treatment for patients to prevent blood clots after surgery.

dual antibiotic therapy


Explanation:
Unless this is a typo, this may refer to dual antibiotic therapy, which is apparently used in an attempt to reduce inflammation in the treatment of aortic aneurysms (not very successfully, it would seem) - as well as being a cause of them (depending on the AB used - see references). That said, this abbreviation does not appear to be very common in English, and the sources below make no specific reference to dual AB therapy.

"dauerhafte Antibiotikatherapie" is another possibility which just occurred to me
