4 The Success Story of Antimicrobial Agents has begun only 85 years ago 1928: Dr. Alexander Fleming discovers Penicillin

5 and Dr Fleming already warned in 1945 about the risk of resistance development Nobel Lecture, Dec 11, 1945, Stockholm 5

6 Of course it happened, globally, In Japan In the U.S. MRSA Prevalence in Japan, (%) In Germany and many other countries around the world MRSA Prevalence in Germany, (%)

8 Emergence of pan-resistant CRE in Abu Dhabi Emirate May yr old female Peritonitis after relaparotomy due to anastomotic leak Transferred from UAQ Dubai AD hospital (!) Pan-resistant K. pneumoniae (CRE) identified from blood culture and abdominal fluid Outcome: Patient died Two other patients with same pan-resistant CRE profile (one of them died)

9 WHO call for action Bacteria are starting to become so resistant to common antibiotics that it could bring about the end of modern medicine as we know it. Margaret Chan, Director General, World Health Organization (WHO) March 2012 Due to misuse we are losing our first-line antibiotics and every antibiotic ever developed is at risk of becoming obsolete, as the world could be entering a Post-Antibiotic Era

10 UK Medical Chief: Antibiotics resistance as big a risk as terrorism A ticking time bomb If we don t take action now, then we may all be back in an almost 19 th Century environment where infections kill us as a result of routine operations We re beginning to see in some hospitals, patients coming in with this infection with no antibiotic that can be used to treat them Prof. Dame Sally Davies UK Government Chief Medical Officer This is a global issue for governments, the medical profession, the pharmaceutical industry and individuals BBC, March

11 WHO Policy Package to combat Antimicrobial Resistance (2011)

19 The Abu Dhabi Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance (AD ARS) System and Network

20 AD ARS Data base is highly representative for AD Emirate: Covers all regions of the Emirate, including 67 SEHA Healthcare facilities 12 Hospitals in all three regions 55 associated health centers 66.2% of total Abu Dhabi bed capacity 73.2% of all AD clinical/patient encounters

21 Abu Dhabi ARS uses BacLink/WHONET 5.6 WHONET Affiliations: WHO, ECDC, CLSI, APUA Managed by: Harvard Medical School and Brighams Hospital, Boston, USA Technical and strategic support for 1200 laboratories in 90 countries worldwide WHONET & BacLink Software

22 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Example: Staph. aureus Select type of analysis & Antimicrobials Select organism of interest Select data file (time period)

23 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Example: Staph. aureus

24 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Example: Staph. aureus

25 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Example: Staph. aureus MIC distribution CLSI Breakpoint: S 2, R 4 Susceptible Resistant

26 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Example: Staph. aureus Scatterplot analysis

27 Using WHONET 5.6 for AMR Surveillance Exclusion of duplicate/copy strains from Analysis

28 AD ARS Data base is very comprehensive: Key Figures AD ARS Database (WHONET) 166 antimicrobials (25 classes) 67 Healthcare facilities 67,501 Patients 353 different species 1,360,518 Antimicrobial susceptibility test results 73,682 bacterial/ fungal Isolates ~90,000 Specimens from 208 Sources

29 AD ARS could report data each year on more clinical isolates from one Emirate only, than has been published in the scientific literature for all GCC countries combined during 21 years! All GCC countries, : 37,295 published isolates UAE: 491 isolates only (1.3%) Abu Dhabi ARS 2012: 50,067 isolates >100 times more data than published in 21 yrs. for UAE Ary & Balkhy, ARIC,

30 AD ARS is designed as a hospital laboratorybased AMR Surveillance System The Microbiology Lab: A Perfect Partner for Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing in the Lab: Disk Diffusion Tests (Kirby-Bauer)

31 AD ARS collects data on all types of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Tests (AST) conducted µg/ml MIC (Broth dilution, VITEK) Agar Diffusion/KB E-Test 82.4% 17.2% 0.3% Test Result: S I R, based on: Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Test Result: S I R, based on: Zone diameter (mm) Test Result: S I R, based on: Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) S = Sensitive, I = Intermediate, R = Resistant

This GP is prescribing Ceftriaxone (i.v.) in 84% of all J01 patient encounters Data Source: HAAD eclaim data Courtesy: Dr. Yousuf Naqvi (HAAD)

51 A comprehensive AMR Surveillance Report is under development Draft Report on AMR data is under expert review Expected to be published Q1 2014

52 Summary & Conclusions 1. Increasing antimicrobial resistance is a global and local problem 2. HAAD has adopted a comprehensive Strategy to control Antimicrobial Resistance Development and Spread and developed AD ARS (at no costs) 3. AD ARS allows to monitor local levels and trends of AMR and supports detection of MDRO clusters/outbreaks 4. Preliminary results demonstrate 1. Unacceptably high AMR levels 2. Increasing trends of resistance 3. High prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms 4. Emerging new threats (CRE and pan-resistant pathogens) 5. Further action on all levels is needed to reverse increasing AMR trends 6. Health Authority Abu Dhabi would be pleased to participate in a coordinated UAE- or even GCC-wide AMR Surveillance Program
