Each year, 33000 people die from an infection due to bacteria resistant to antibiotics. The burden of infections with bacteria resistant to antibiotics on the European population is comparable to that of influenza, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS combined.
The ability of bacteria to resist the action of an antibiotic has become a recognised global problem. Antibiotic resistance severely limits the number of antibiotics available for the treatment of diseases.
Antibiotic resistance concerns us all – everyone can take action to address this pressing issue. There are many ways to contribute in the work to limit antibiotic resistance development and spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria. See overview below for inspiration and flip the page for more detai...ls.

verall strategy and objective of the European Antibiotic Awareness Day The overall objective of the European Antibiotic Awareness Day is to support national activities aimed at raising awareness concerning the proper use of antibiotics so as to maintain the efficacy of antibiotics and avoid the eme...rgence of resistant bacteria. To this aim, ECDC has decided to produce basic campaign communication materials that communicators in EU Member States can use in devising and implementing national campaigns. At the same time, a dedicated website will be launched in July 2008. These materials aim to provide a visual identity to the campaigns across the EU member states and make the messages more recognisable and consistent, thus memorable to the target audience. The choice of supporting visuals responds to the need of making the messages accessible to parents and young people, who represent the main target for the 2008 campaign.

The current document is anupdate of the guidelines developed by the EUCAST subcommittee on detection of resistance mechanisms. The EUCAST Steering Committee has carried out the current update. The document has been developed mainly for routine use in clinical laboratories and doesnot cover technical... procedures for identification of resistance mechanisms at a molecular level by reference or expert laboratories. However, much of the content is also applicable tonational reference laboratories. Furthermore, it is important to note that the document does not cover screening for asymptomatic carriage (colonization) of multidrug-resistant microorganismsor direct detectionof resistancein clinical samples.

La résistance à un antimicrobien survient quand un micro-organisme (bactérie, virus, champignon ou parasite), devient résistant à un médicament antimicrobien vis-à-vis duquel il était auparavant sensible . Cette résistance aux antimicrobiens (RAM), concerne un large ...ventail d’agents infectieux, et de nombreux secteurs d’activités (santé humaine et animale, agro-industrie, élevage, environnement). Elle représente une menace croissante pour la santé publique et aucun pays n’est épargné. Il est particulièrement alarmant de constater la propagation rapide, dans le monde entier, des bactéries multirésistantes provoquant des infections courantes qui ne sont pas sensibles aux traitements antibiotiques habituellement utilisés, ainsi que des infections en particulier hospitalières, résistantes aux traitements antibiotiques de dernier recours . Le problème se pose actuellement en termes de développement durable : il dépasse largement le cadre de la santé humaine et interpelle le monde entier

This small scale project aimed to optimize antibiotic prescriptions for Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) at Okhaldhunga Community Hospital in Nepal. A review of 18 months data from urine cultures taken in the hospital was completed in 2017. Presentations about antibiotic resistance, the local bacteria...l culture results and possible ways of changing prescription pattern were given for doctors, lab staff and community medical assistants (CMA). 16 months later the prescription rate of antibiotics frequently used for UTIs was followed up, with a 57% reduction of ciprofloxacin consumption!

The Global Antibiotic Resistance Partnership (GARP)-Mozambique team, in partnership with the Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics & Policy (CDDEP), has produced this report as part of a solid com-mitment to develop actionable policy proposals to tackle antibiotic resistance and improve appropriate... antibiotic access. It is the result of a thorough review of published and unpublished data on antibiotic resistance and a long internal consultation effort that engaged academic scientists, health professionals and other stakeholders within Mozambique.

Antibiotic resistance is no longer a concern for the distant future but is a pressing issue, both globally and in Nepal. As part of global effort to preserve the effectiveness of antibiotics, the Global Antibiotic Resistance Partnership (GARP)-Nepal was established to doc...ument the current state of antibiotic access, use and resistance in the country, and to identify policies and actions that could set a course for antibiotic sustainability.

This video explains what antibiotics and the microbiome are, how they work, and side effects that patients may experience. It also provides helpful questions for patients and their families to ask their health care providers when they have been prescribed antibiotics.
You don't always need antibiotics when you're sick—only for infections caused by bacteria. And overuse is causing a global health problem.
Learn about superbugs from a superbug itself!
This animated video explains how bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics and eventually turn into superbugs, that are resistant to most known antibiotics.
