Strategies to Address Antibiotic Resistance through Antimicrobial Stewardship
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: A serious danger to global health, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) reduces the effectiveness of antibiotics and raises morbidity, mortality, and medical expenses. By encouraging the best possible use of antibiotics, reducing resistance, and enhancing patient outcomes, antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) initiatives play a vital role in the fight against antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The fundamental tenets of AMS, including as evidence-based recommendations, diagnostic advancements, public health integration, and international cooperation, are examined in this review. It addresses issues including resource constraints and policy gaps while highlighting effective tactics like infection control, surveillance, and education. In order to maintain the effectiveness of antibiotics for future generations, the paper emphasises the necessity of a multipronged strategy to guarantee sustainable AMS deployment.
