Combating Antimicrobial Resistance Through a Data-Driven Approach to Optimize Antibiotic Use and Improve Patient Outcomes: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study

Combating Antimicrobial Resistance Through a Data-Driven Approach to Optimize Antibiotic Use and Improve Patient Outcomes: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study

Many of the countries in the region lack national action plans for AMR, alluding to AMR not being among their health priorities [8]. In contrast, some high-income economies of Europe and America had already instituted various regional and national AMR action plans as early as 2014 [9-12].

Complex Hospital-Based Electronic Prescribing–Based Intervention to Support Antimicrobial Stewardship: Qualitative Study

Complex Hospital-Based Electronic Prescribing–Based Intervention to Support Antimicrobial Stewardship: Qualitative Study

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious public health threat [1]. It involves bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics, potentially leading to infectious diseases no longer being treatable with antimicrobial agents and is driven by antibiotic use [2,3]. The patient, health care, and economic costs of AMR are significant.

Understanding the Consumption of Antimicrobial Resistance–Related Content on Social Media: Twitter Analysis

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as one of the most pressing concerns of our time. Overprescription and incorrect usage of antibiotics have further contributed to the worsening crisis. With deaths attributed to AMR reaching 4.95 million in 2019 [1] and a predicted cumulative global cost of $100 trillion by 2050, it is clear that novel strategies to combat AMR are desperately needed [2,3].

This suggests the potential for use of antibiotics in food-producing animals to be important to address to help curb AMR. California has a large livestock industry and is one of the leading US producers of beef cattle, broiler chickens, and turkey [12,13]. It is also the most populous US state, with a human population larger than the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden combined (countries that lead the European Union science and policy on AMR in livestock [14,15]).
