National Minimum Data Set for Antimicrobial Resistance Management: Toward Global Surveillance System
Background: Success of infection treatment depends on the availability of accurate, reliable, and comprehensive data, information, and knowledge at the point of therapeutic decision-making. The identification of a national minimum data set will support the development and implementation of an effective surveillance system. The goal of this study was to develop a national antimicrobial resistanc...
متن کاملA Procedure for Building Confidence Interval on the Mean of Simulation Output Data
One of the existing methods to build a confidence interval (c.i.) for the mean response in a single steady state simulation system is the batch means method. This method, compared to the other existing methods (autoregressive representation, regenerative cycles, spectrum analysis, standardized time series), is quite easy to understand and to implement and performs relatively well. However, the ...
متن کاملSurveillance for Antimicrobial Resistance in Croatia
We describe the activities of the Croatian Committee for Antibiotic Resistance Surveillance and report surveillance results for 1999. Twenty-two Croatian microbiology laboratories participated in the study. Resistance rates for the organisms isolated in different centers varied widely, but certain trends were apparent. Penicillin resistance in pneumococci (38%), methicillin resistance in Staphy...
متن کاملStrategy for antimicrobial resistance surveillance in Australia.
The importance of surveillance* in combating and managing antimicrobial† resistance (AMR) is recognised as an important component of the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Strategy for Containment of Antimicrobial Resistance, 2001. There is good evidence that surveillance is a costeffective infection control strategy.1,2 Appropriate surveillance provides vital information for the targeting ...
متن کاملThe need for antimicrobial resistance surveillance.
Although antimicrobial agents drastically reduced patient morbidity and mortality, bacterial resistance to these agents developed shortly after their introduction. Because the laboratory diagnosis of respiratory tract infection (RTI) is not always possible, and rarely of immediate use, treatment success or failure often depends upon the availability of reliable susceptibility information at the...
