As part of an antimicrobial stewardship programme, healthcare organizations should have local antibiotic treatment guidelines in place that take account of local antibiotic resistance patterns. The current issue of JAC reports the development of an interactive web tool, called AmWeb, for the local surveillance of resistance by hospital laboratories in England. The application of AmWeb should help to both optimize the management of patients with infection and contribute to efforts to prolong the active life of antibiotics currently available for use.
作为抗菌药物管理计划的一部分,医疗机构应制定当地的抗生素治疗指南,以考虑当地的抗生素耐药模式。JAC 本期报道了一个名为 AmWeb 的交互式网络工具的开发,用于英格兰医院实验室进行耐药性的本地监测。AmWeb 的应用应该有助于优化感染患者的管理,并有助于延长目前可用于使用的抗生素的有效寿命。
