Know your Microbe Foes: The Role of Surveillance in Combatting Antimicrobial Resistance.
Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine 2022 December
Antibiotic-resistant organisms (AROs) are difficult and costly to treat, associated with high mortality rates, and are on the rise. In the United States, there is limited tracking of AROs, which can contribute to transmission and inhibit infection prevention interventions. Surveillance is limited by a lack of standardized methods for colonization screening and limited communication regarding patient ARO-status between healthcare settings. Some regional surveillance and reporting efforts are in place for extensively-resistant AROs such as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), but need to be further expanded nationwide and to include other AROs such as extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing organisms. Increased surveillance of ARO infections and colonization will inform future targeted intervention and infection prevention strategies.
