CPCSSN is currently studying antibiotic use and misuse in the context of the growing global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) issue. One of our ongoing projects aims to combine a prescribing app and feedback platform developed by the Joint Programming Initiative on Antimicrobial Resistance (JPIAMR) to create a new antimicrobial stewardship tool. This tool will be tested in three parallel pragmatic clinical randomized trials in primary care, hospitals, and veterinary care.
Also watch for a comprehensive report on AMR scheduled for release this fall.
