Title: Linking antimicrobial resistance surveillance to antibiotic policy in healthcare settings: the COMBACTE-Magnet EPI-Net COACH project
Primary Objective: To summarize the evidence on how to collect, analyse and report antimicrobial resistance surveillance (AMR) data to inform antimicrobial stewardship teams (AMS) providing guidance on empirical antibiotic treatment. Ten identified key questions focuses on AMS team composition, minimum infrastructure requirements for AMR surveillance, organisms/samples/susceptibility patterns to report, data stratification strategies, reporting frequency, resistance thresholds, surveillance in high-risk settings, and surveillance from other countries. This evidence provides a basis for a more integrated process of developing procedures to report AMR surveillance data to drive AMS interventions.
