Beyond AMR Surveillance: Adapting AMR Surveillance to Changing Technology and Prevention Needs
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Describe key targets in the continuum of surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and how tracking them can inform public health efforts
- Summarize the challenges of current AMR surveillance efforts globally and opportunities for building robust AMR surveillance in the future.
- List novel technologies that will likely be routine over next 10 years in most clinical laboratories in developed countries and discuss their potential implications for surveillance programs.
- Discuss how CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network are using electronically captured data on antimicrobial resistance, the challenges to using this data for surveillance and antibiograms, and the future vision offered by advances in informatics.
- Defining the Targets for Surveillance and Prevention of Antimicrobial Resistance
- Successful Implementation of Novel Antibiotic Resistance Diagnostics into AR Surveillance Strategies: What Might a Coordinated Approach Look Like?
- The Evolution of Public Health Informatics is Transforming Surveillance for Antimicrobial Resistance: Lessons from the Field
