Participatory implementation of an antibiotic stewardship programme supported by an innovative surveillance and clinical decision-support system

摘要

Background: Antibiotic resistance will cause about 10 million deaths per year by 2050. Fighting antimicrobial resistance is a health priority. Interventions aimed to reduce antimicrobial resistance, such as antibiotic stewardship programmes (ASPs), must be implemented. To be effective, those interventions, and the implementation process, should be matched with social-cultural context. The complexity of ASPs can no longer be developed without considering both organizational and information systems.
