The development of Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has diminished the effectiveness of many antimicrobials used to prevent and/or treat wound infection. In order to help address AMR, there have been the development of Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) programmes. These have been designed to educate healthcare workers and control the prescribing of antibiotics and targeting of other antimicrobials and hence reduce the likelihood of AMR.
This online AMS masterclass will discuss:
- The role of HCPs in implementing AMS in wound care
- The impact of AMS strategies based on analysis of a real-world online survey and experiences of expert practitioners.
- Where practitioners can enhance effectiveness of AMS.
- The role of DACC-coated dressings to support AMS.
