Abstract:

The report examines international antimicrobial resistance surveillance models, current activities undertaken by Australian surveillance units; activities undertaken by the Australian Group on Antimicrobial Resistance, and the National Antimicrobial Utilisation Program, and examines how reports from routine diagnostic laboratories might provide a source of data to contain antimicrobial resistance. While acknowledging the importance of antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic use in veterinary and agricultural practice, the scope of this report is limited to bacteria in the context of human health. The report is consistent with Australia’s Communicable Disease Control Framework, and proposes options applicable to the Australian context for short, medium and longer terms actions. The recommendations centre on national coordination using a ‘One Health’ framework linking together data on resistance and antibiotic use from humans, animals and agriculture to provide a national picture of AMR to guide action on preserving the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents.
