In long-term care facilities (LTCFs) residents often receive inappropriate antibiotic treatment and infection prevention and control practices are frequently inadequate, thus favouring acquisition of MDR organisms. There is increasing evidence in the literature describing antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) activities in LTCFs, but practical guidance on how surveillance data should be linked with AMS activities in this setting is lacking. To bridge this gap, the JPIAMR ARCH and COMBACTE-MAGNET EPI-Net networks joined their efforts to provide practical guidance for linking surveillance data with AMS activities.

白皮书：弥合长期护理机构监测数据与抗菌药物管理之间的差距——来自 JPIAMR ARCH 和 COMBACTE-MAGNET EPI-Net 网络的实用指南


在长期护理机构 (LTCF) 中，居民经常接受不适当的抗生素治疗，感染预防和控制措施往往不足，从而有利于获得耐多药微生物。文献中越来越多的证据描述了 LTCF 中的抗菌药物管理 (AMS) 活动，但缺乏关于如何将监测数据与这种情况下的 AMS 活动联系起来的实用指南。为了弥补这一差距，JPIAMR ARCH 和 COMBACTE-MAGNET EPI-Net 网络共同努力，为将监测数据与 AMS 活动联系起来提供实用指导。
