An Urgent Call for Sustainable Stewardship: Confronting the Global Burden of Bacterial Antimicrobial Resistance with Forecasts to 2050

Research output: Non-textual form › Web publication/site

Abstract

In response to antimicrobial resistance, it is urgent to implement antimicrobial stewardship to stop its spread. AMR cannot be addressed without preserving the effectiveness of antibiotics, which are crucial for saving lives. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global threat necessitating urgent antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) to preserve antibiotic efficacy and save lives. The GBD 2021 study in The Lancet reveals that AMR-related mortality among those aged 70+ more than doubled from 1990 to 2021, correlating with high antibiotic use in the elderly. Rising carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacteria highlights the critical need for adherence to antibiotic safety measures and the WHO’s AWaRe classification. Effective AMS, especially in low- and middle-income countries, is essential to prevent AMR-related deaths. Continuous surveillance, sustainable stewardship, and innovative, multidisciplinary strategies are vital to combat AMR globally.
