Antimicrobial
resistance is a responsibility of each and every one of us, be it a patient,
healthcare professional or policy maker. This is the theme of an interesting
article in the journal European Hospital.
The
article states:
“In
the past four years, in more than a third of EU/EEA countries, there has been a
significant increase in the trend towards combined resistance to both Klebsiella pneumoniae and E. Coli; on a more positive note
methicillin- resistant Staphylococcus
aureus (MRSA) has shown a decrease or stabilisation in most European
countries.”
