A strategic approach to regulating new antimicrobials
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant threat to healthcare in India, which is experiencing increasing resistance to critical antibiotics, including last-resort treatments. Emerging data indicate that resistance to last resort life-saving drugs continues to rise, limiting treatment options for drug-resistant infections. While the introduction of new antimicrobials offers hope, historical patterns suggest that resistance may develop rapid…
Social and biological evaluation of antimicrobial resistance (Sobear) in rural India
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been one of the biggest global health threats in recent years, mostly in low- and middle-income countries, which requires urgent research using a multidisciplinary research approach. The use of large quantities of antimicrobial drugs inappropriately for humans, poultry and agriculture has been recognized as a leading cause of antibiotic resistance and the predominance of drug-resistance pathogens in …
Knowledge, attitudes and practices of antimicrobial resistance awareness among healthcare workers in India
Perception and determinants leading to antimicrobial (mis)use
Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as one of the major public health issues globally. This cross-sectional study determined knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) regarding antimicrobial use and AMR among rural communities of Tigiria (Odisha), India. Methods A semi-structured questionnaire based on socio-demographic characteristics, antibiotics usage, awareness of antimicrobial resistance, healthcare utilization and quality o…
Strengthening the Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance in India Using Integrative Technologies
Background: The antimicrobial resistance (AMR) situation in India is alarming. In the absence of newer antibiotics, the best possible approach is to efficiently use the existing antimicrobials through surveillance of resistance. The data generated by AMR surveillance across the country has immense potential to drive policy decisions. However, this data is available in a variety of sources. It is imperative to have tools to integrate the data gene…
Understanding complexities in the uptake of indigenously developed rapid point-of-care diagnostics for containment of antimicrobial resistance in India
A good point-of-care diagnostic test holds a promise to reduce inappropriate use of antibiotics by enabling early detection of the pathogen and facilitating rapid testing of antimicrobial susceptibility. India has taken many initiatives in the recent past to augment the development and deployment of diagnostics in Indian health care system. Funding opportunities to promote innovation in diagnostics development were started in early 2000s through …
