Transmission Surveillance for Antimicrobial-Resistant Organisms in the Health System.
Microbiology Spectrum 2018 September
Surveillance of antibiotic resistance involves the collection of antibiotic susceptibility patterns undertaken by clinical microbiology laboratories on bacteria isolated from clinical specimens. Global surveillance programs have shown that antibiotic resistance is a major threat to the public at large and play a crucial role in the development of enhanced diagnostics as well as potential vaccines and novel antibiotics with activity against antimicrobial-resistant organisms. This review focuses primarily on examples of global surveillance systems. Local, national, and global integrated surveillance programs with sufficient data linkage between these schemes, accompanied by enhanced genomics and user-friendly bioinformatics systems, promise to overcome some of the stumbling blocks encountered in the understanding, emergence, and transmission of antimicrobial-resistant organisms.
