Antimicrobial resistance surveillance among gram-negative bacterial isolates from patients in hospitals in Khartoum State, Sudan

Name	World Continuing Education Alliance
Activity Title	Antimicrobial resistance surveillance among gram-negative bacterial isolates from patients in hospitals in Khartoum State, Sudan
Details	Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) constitutes a continuously growing threat to the effective treatment of microbial infections. AMR surveillance is key for determining the prevalence patterns of AMR, which is fundamental for the development of national and international treatment strategies. Most of the available surveillance data are derived from developed countries; the studies conducted in developing countries are unfortunately not adequate.. This surveillance study was undertaken in order to find out the different types of the AMR patterns of bacterial pathogens isolated from patients in Khartoum State, Sudan. This study may help in formulating antibiotic policies tailored to our hospitals. These data can be used as “information for action” antibiotic stewardship and interventions to optimize antibiotic prescribing practice, therefore prolongs the usefulness of existing antibiotics.
