Decreasing and stabilising trends of antimicrobial consumption and resistance in and in segmented regression analysis, European Union/European Economic Area, 2001 to 2018.

Last updated on 10-1-2022 by Lucy Catteau

Abstract:

Investments to reduce the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the European Union have been made, including efforts to strengthen prudent antimicrobial use. Using segmented regression, we report decreasing and stabilising trends in data reported to the European Surveillance of Antimicrobial Consumption Network and stabilising trends in data reported to the European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network. Our results could be an early indication of the effect of prioritising AMR on the public health agenda.
