40 Containment of Antimicrobial Resistance Judicious antimicrobial use in hospitals and community: Antimicrobial stewardship Increase public awareness Practice good hygiene Enforce infection control measures Active and passive surveillance Correlate antimicrobial resistance with use Identify reservoirs of resistant bacteria Develop new drugs (antimicrobials, other compounds) and vaccines Other approaches: antimicrobial cycling?
