AMR Exam 3 Questions and Answers 100% Verified
What is the goal of antibiotic surveillance and assessment? - ANSWER-To better understand and respond
to antimicrobial resistance patterns and key drivers, information about antimicrobial resistance incidence, prevalence, and trend.
Purpose of the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance - ANSWER-- To determine the scope of the problem
-Formulate effective response to AMR
-Monitor effectiveness of the response to AMR
General conclusions of antimicrobial resistance surveillance - ANSWER-- There are many gaps in information on pathogens of major public concern
-Surveillance is neither coordinated nor harmonized
-Many common treatment options for bacterial infections are becoming ineffective across parts of the world
-Very high levels of resistance have been observed in bacteria that cause common HAI and CAI across all WHO regions
Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS): Goal - ANSWER-to enable standardized, comparable and validated data on AMR to be collected, analyzed, and shared with other countries, in order to inform decision-making, drive local, national, and regional action, and provide evidence base for
action and advocacy
Surveillance site (GLASS) - ANSWER-collects basic demographic, clinical, epidemiological and microbiological information from patients
National Reference Laboratory (GLASS) - ANSWER-promotes good lab practices and supports labs in the national surveillance system National Coordinating Center (GLASS) - ANSWER-establish and oversees the national surveillance program, gather nation AMR data, and communicates with GLASS
GLASS: Objective - ANSWER-- Foster national surveillance systems and harmonized global standard
- Estimate the extent and burden of AMR globally by selected indicators
- Analyze and report global data on AMR in regular basis
- Detecting emerging resistance and its international spread
-Inform implementation of targeted prevention and control programs
- Access the impact of interventions
The 8 priority pathogens of GLASS - ANSWER-- E.coli
- K. pneumoniae
- Acineobacter spp.
- S. aureus
- S. pneumoniae
- Salmonella spp.
- Shigella spp.
- Neisseria gonorrhoeae
4 specimen types of GLASS - ANSWER--blood
-urine
-stool
-genital swaps
Conclusions of GLASS - ANSWER--A majority of countries are not registered and many do not report due to funding and resources limitation.
- Antibiotic resistance surveillance is difficult at a national and international level
