  1. Professor Barry Cookson Antimicrobial Stewardship Reflections on International Efforts Division of Infection and Immunity, Univ. College London

  2. ECDC AMR Strategy Infection Prevention & Control Antimicrobial Stewardship Training/ Education: Professio-nals & Public New Diagnostics, Antibiotics and Treatments Prioritisation of R&D & Interventions: Organisational & Behavioural AMR & AB Usage Surveillance International Collaboration

  3. 7) strengthened international collaboration with a wide range of governmental and non-governmental organisations, international regulatory bodies and others to influence opinion, galvanise support, and mobilise action to deliver the scale of change needed globally. Seven Key Areas

  4. 8 components of WHO Regional Strategy • Combined strategy on HAI and AMR and link to patient safety • Strengthen surveillance of HAI and combine AMR • Improve use of standardized surveillance methods and indicators, and process & progress indicators • Standardize guidelines and tools for infection control and prevention in health care settings, including AM drug use. • Move from individual projects to national programmes • Foster partnership with professional groups • Review research agenda, training needs and gaps • Political commitment, advocacy, resourcesPittet et al, Considerations for a WHO European strategy…. The Lancet Infectious Diseases 2005; 5: 242-250.

  5. Liam Donaldson WHO Patient Safety Sally Davies UK Representative WHO Executive 2014 AMR Strategy Champion? Kenneth Calman Clinical Governance & Total Quality Management

  6. The Healthcare Associated Infection and related AMR paradox: high burden but little action • Complex issue: with no immediate, easy solution • Requires multi disciplinary approaches:never easy • Control and Prevention seen as costly • Diffuse issue: Individual or Institutional or “Public Health” problem?

  7. Why the increased profile in the “00”s? • A Patient Safety Issue at last • WHO Global Patient Safety Alliance • Hand Hygiene • Surgical Site Infection • Antimicrobial Resistance (never progressed!) • DG SANCO funded European project Improving Patient Safety in Europe (IPSE) • International community & media views changed as a result of SARS & the Pandemic Flu threat • Crying wolf no longer: Armageddon organisms are evident globally

  8. “EUROPE” • 17 Old Member States (MS) • 10 New MS • EEA: European Economic Area addsIceland, Liechtenstein andNorway • EFTA: European Free Trade AssociationSwitzerland, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway • EU acceding countries: Croatia April 2013 See European Economic Areahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Free_Trade_Association#Current_members

  9. “In England (~2005) we make hospital acquired infection (HAI) rates publically available by named hospital” After the initial shock around Europe: in 2012 6/28 European countries are doing this!

  10. Publication of hospital specific HAI infection ratesCookson et al, J Hosp Infect 2011: 79; 260-264 EU Directorate (SANCO) group suggested possibility of different systems: Confidential within the health care institution, not public health authorities e.g. individual surgical team infection rates. Confidential benchmarking within surveillance networks with publication of anonymised or aggregated results e.g. surveillance of surgical site infections. Disclosure to public health authorities e.g. early warning of notifiable nosocomial events. Public reporting of agreed indicators e.g. composite structure and process indicators or HAI rates e.g. France, England Vive la Différence

  11. Consensus standards and performance indicators for healthcare associated infection in EuropeCookson et al, J Hosp Infect 2011: 79; 260-264 Overall Averages80% 11% 2% 3%

  12. Seven Key Areas 2) optimising prescribing practice through implementation of antimicrobial stewardship programmes that promote rational prescribing and better use of existing and new rapid diagnosticsBehaviours of patients and doctors(Agricultural, Aquaculture, Vets use: science, politics and economic hurdles: overwhelmingly important!)

  13. ECDC Activities (Council Recommendation2002/77/EC) • 2013 !!! Exploring misuse of antimicrobial agents in human medicine across whole chain of stakeholders : prescribers, pharmacists and patients. Sales of antimicrobial agents without a prescription (SCORE 2002-03) • 2014: Antibiotic Prescribing & Resistance in European Children (ARPEC) • 2014-15: Follow up review of EC Recommendations

  14. Seven Key Areas • improving infection prevention and control practices in human (and animal health), both through enhanced dissemination & implementation of best practice & better use of data and diagnostics 5) better access to and use of surveillance data..facilitate greater data consistency & standardisation across the system & encourage improved data linkage

  17. Large differences are found between countries • in rates of HAIs, • in distribution of rates • in the characteristics of the infections This is attributable to: • Differences in definition interpretation/data collection? • Differences in recruitment? • Difference in Antibiotic Rx & other medical policies? • Difference in the quality of care?

  18. Healthcare-Associated Infections surveillance Network (HAI-Net) Coordination Groups (European experts) and contact points in participating countries Modules: Surgical site infections: 16 countries HAI in intensive care units: 14 countries Point prevalence survey: 30 countries HAI in long-term care (HALT-2, outsourced): 24 countries Surveillance of C. difficile infections, pilot: 14 countries Concordance of definitions, Validation studiesNeed post discharge
