Antimicrobial Stewardship: What We All Just Need to Know.
European Urology Focus 2018 June 31
CONTEXT: Microbial resistance to antibiotics is increasing while antimicrobials are limited. Responsible use is necessary.
OBJECTIVE: Describe the present acquisitions of antimicrobial stewardship programmes (ASPs) in general and in urology.
EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: Well-designed ASPs have an impact on reducing treatment duration, shortening intravenous treatment in favour of oral targeted therapy, and reducing the total antibiotic prescription. Moreover, the hospital length of stay can potentially be reduced without hazard for the patient.
CONCLUSIONS: It is recommended to set up an ASP for education and feedback as standard in urological practice. The exact design of the ASP should be tailored to regional prerequisites.
