MDR organisms in the healthcare setting: from ESKAPE to ESCAPE • We are currently facing new microbiological, infection control and clinical issues, and the epidemiologic variations observed in the last years highlighted the need of a change from the initial proposed acronym: • “ESKAPE” “ESCAPE” • E. faeciumE. faecium • S. aureusS. aureus • K. pneumoniae C. difficile • A. baumanniiA. baumannii • P. aeruginosa P. aeruginosa • Enterobacter species Enterobacteriaceae

Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs • ASPs are designed • to optimize antimicrobial therapy, • 1-to improve patients’ outcomes, • 2-ensure cost-effective therapy and • 3-reduce adverse effects associated with antimicrobial use, including antimicrobial resistance and C difficile occurrence
INFECTION CONTROL AND ANTIBIOTIC STEWARDSHIP • Although the responsibilities of antimicrobial stewardship programs and infection control departments are different, collaboration between these groups is essential in • promoting optimal outcomes, • providing cost-effective care, • reducing the development of resistance, and • preventing the spread of infection.
Infection control departments must rely on stewardship programs to help minimize excessive antibiotic exposure, which ultimately decreases the level of risk that patients face with regard to acquiring infections due to multidrug-resistant organisms.
Antimicrobial stewardship programs rely on good infection-control practices, in a complementary fashion, to minimize the patient-to-patient spread of multidrug resistant bacteria. • Poor infection control practices can lead to increasing number of patients with multidrug-resistant infections, which leads to a downward spiral of increased utilization of broad-spectrum antibiotics and the further development of resistance.
