Antimicrobial Stewardship for the Community Hospital: Practical Tools & Techniques for Implementation ►CDC - Antimicrobial Stewardship - Get Smart for Healthcare

Antimicrobial Stewardship for the Community Hospital: Practical Tools & Techniques for Implementation

Program Overview:

Antimicrobial resistance is a growing problem worldwide. National and international organizations have recognized this growing problem and have published guidelines and recommendations to combat it. Despite the recognition of the merits and benefits of Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs (ASP), only 48% of all US hospitals currently have an ASP in place. Although antimicrobial resistance is a worldwide concern, it is first and foremost a local problem. Hospitals, as the primary incubators of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, carry the highest responsibility for proper stewardship of our antimicrobial resources. This educational initiative is designed to overcome and address the barriers to facilitate practical implementation of ASPs in the community hospital setting led by the hospital pharmacist and infectious disease specialist in conjunction with other collaborating physician specialties.
This CME/CE activity was recorded during a scientific roundtable meeting that was presented by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and titled "Antimicrobial Stewardship for the Community Hospital: Practical Tools & Techniques for Implementation," which took place on August 24, 2010, in Atlanta, Georgia.
Cooperating Organizations for this initiative include the American Medical Association, the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, the Infectious Diseases Society of America, the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America, the Society of Hospital Medicine, and the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists.
