4 ANTIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP Strategies to improve the use of antimicrobial medications with the goals of: Enhancing patient health outcomes Decreasing unnecessary costs Reducing resistance to antimicrobials Executive order combating antibiotic resistant bacteria (2014) Other healthcare settings (other than inpatient) Office based practices, outpatient settings, emergency departments WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION. INTERVENTIONS AND STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE USE OF ANTIMICROBIALS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES TP://

5 ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IS EVERYWHERE Approximately 2,049,442 people are infected each year in the US with a resistant bacteria At least 23,000 people die each year from these infections Most infections occur in the community Deaths related to resistance occur in the healthcare setting Hospitals Nursing homes CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION. ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE THREATS IN THE US 2013 REPORT.

6 ECONOMIC BURDEN OF ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE Pediatric patients visiting the clinic for respiratory or ear infections $250 $216 $250 $200 $150 $100 $50 $0 $53 Provider Visit Costs $200 $150 $100 $50 $0 $75 $23 Drug costs n = 2,328 Treatment Failure Treatment Success Treatment failure = receiving another different antibiotic from the first episode HOWARD DH.

8 HOW ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE HAPPENS Lots of bacteria and a few of them are resistant to some of the conventional antibiotics Antibiotics kill the bacteria (both good and bad) Drug resistant ones are not eradicated and they overgrow Other ways is that bacteria can share their mechanism of resistance to other bacteria US DEPARTMENT AND HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE THREATS IN THE UNITED STATES 2013 REPORT. CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION. MAR 17, 2017.

9 MECHANISM OF RESISTANCE Reduced permeability or uptake Porin Pumps Efflux Pumps Alterations of target sites Altering Penicillin binding protein Topoisomerase mutation Enzymatic Degradation Aminoglycoside modifying enzyme Beta-lactamase production HANCOCK REW. CLIN INFECT DIS. 1998;27:S93-9.

10 HOW CAN ANTIBIOTICS RESISTANCE SPREAD? Antibiotics are given to animals and to humans Drug resistant bacteria can remain on the meat of our livestock When we do not handle food properly (washing hands) or cook properly Fertilizer or water containing animal feces used on food crops Drug resistant bacteria can remain in our gut Obtain drug resistant bacteria being in a healthcare facility Antibiotic use can lead to resistance should only use to treat infections

12 MOST OF ANTIBIOTIC USE IS FROM THE OUTPATIENT SETTING Approximately 60% of US antibiotic expenditures for humans are related to care received in outpatient settings Other developed countries 80-90% Approximately 269 million antibiotic prescriptions were dispensed from an outpatient pharmacy 20% of pediatric visits receive an antibiotic 10% of adult visits receive an antibiotic

29 EXECUTIVE ORDER TO COMBAT ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) called an action for the medical community to raise awareness White house has now put a national security priority on antimicrobial misuse Preserve the efficacy of new and existing antimicrobials Accelerate research and facilitate development of new antimicrobials Make sure we have effective antimicrobials in the future SPELLBERG B, ET AL.

32 HEALTHY PEOPLE OF 2020 AND THE PLAN TO REDUCE INAPPROPRIATE USE 10 year national objective for improving the health of all Americans 2 are related to antibiotic use Reduce the number of courses of antibiotics for ear infections for young children Reduced the number of courses of antibiotics for the sole diagnosis of the common cold White House National Action plan: reduce inappropriate antibiotic outpatient use by 50% by the year 2020 ADAPTED FROM HEALTHYPEOPLE.GOV AND WHITEHOUSE.GOV

33 DECREASE OUR ANTIBIOTIC CONSUMPTION Provide some benchmarking purposes To determine the rate: proportion of antimicrobials utilized over patients eligible for antimicrobials within a system Defined daily dose (DDD) or days of therapy (DOT) DDD has been set by the WHO DDD population based parameters DOT number of days a patient is on antibiotics ATC/DDD INDEX

34 DURATION OF ANTIBIOTICS IS IMPORTANT Stopping antibiotics before a serious infection is cured will risk a relapse That s what happened to Albert Alexander, the London policeman who was one of the first people to be treated with penicillin by Howard Florey in 1941 Dutch study compared 3 vs 8 days of amoxicillin (n=63) vs placebo (n=56) and found no difference in duration for mild-moderate pneumonia 93% cure for both groups at 10 days after start of therapy French clinical trial compared 6 weeks (n=176) vs 12 weeks (n=175) of therapy for vertebral osteomyelitis and found no difference in cure (90.9%) WOODWARD, BILLY.

35 DELAYING PRESCRIBING PRACTICES A patient is asked to wait 24-48hrs after a clinic visit To determine if an antibiotic is needed These are patients that may NOT appear to immediately warrant an antibiotic Several ways to delay a prescription Write a post dated prescription Re-contacting a patient after a clinical visit Providing a verbal order prescription to fill the prescription after a certain time if symptoms do not improve LITTLE P, ET AL. BMJ. 2014;348:G1606.

36 DELAYING ANTIBIOTICS REDUCES ANTIBIOTIC USE AND DECREASES COMPLICATIONS Prospective cohort study of 12,829 adult patients with pharyngitis Compared three strategies No antibiotic prescription (n=4,805) Immediate antibiotic prescription (n=6,088) Delayed antibiotic prescription (n=1,784) 1.4% of these patients developed complications 15% non-resolving symptoms Comparing to no antibiotic Complications RR; 95% CI NNT Immediate 0.62, Delayed 0.58, Non-resolving symptoms / Re-consultation Immediate 0.83, Delayed 0.61, LITTLE P, ET AL. LANCET INFECT DIS. 2014;14(3):213-9.

37 PHARMACISTS PLAY AN INTEGRAL ROLE IN PROMOTING APPROPRIATE ANTIBIOTIC USE IN THE COMMUNITY Educate patients and family members Properly taking the antibiotics Potential adverse events Antibiotic resistance Guidance for symptom relief for common infections Viral (do not require an antibiotic) Promote vaccination

38 SUMMARY: GIVE ANTIBIOTICS WHEN IT IS TRULY NECESSARY Antimicrobial resistance is a problem everywhere and is linked to antimicrobial use/abuse Antimicrobial stewardship can assist in decreasing the resistance by evaluating antimicrobial use Do you need antibiotics? Right Dose? Right Duration? Antimicrobial resistance is a problem in Maine and is growing Not as high as other places but we are seeing trends of increase of resistance
