An educational program on antimicrobial resistance and stewardship for staff nurses in a public tertiary care hospital in India
Background
Nurses, the largest group among healthcare professionals, hold a pivotal position to positively influence antimicrobial management by virtue of being in constant touch with patients and their widespread engagement in multiple activities relating to antimicrobial use. However, the existing gap in nursing curriculum particularly in areas related to antimicrobial resistance and optimal use of these agents limits the clinical application of nurses' skills and pose barrier to their contribution towards achieving desirable outcomes in patient care. This training program was conducted to increase the nurses' awareness on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and sensitize them on their role in optimal antimicrobial management and stewardship activities.
Methods
Training comprised of 4 modules focussing on topics like key concepts on antimicrobials, AMR, infection prevention and control, antibiotic allergy, optimal use of antibiotics and antimicrobial stewardship (AS). The participants' knowledge at baseline and 1 week after program were assessed.
Results and conclusions
190 nurses participated in the program. Post program there was a consistent increase in the number of correct responses to all knowledge-based questions pertaining to 4 modules. A significant improvement in knowledge scores for all modules from baseline was also seen. The participants rated the overall quality of program as very good and agreed on its applicability in their practice. The training program was quite successful in educating nurses on critical issues related to AMR and AS. Nurses need to be constantly trained and sensitized for their potential contributions in the field of AMR and stewardship.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to be a platform for the publication and dissemination of knowledge in the area of infection and disease causing infection in humans. The journal is quarterly and publishes research, reviews, concise communications, commentary and other articles concerned with infection and disease affecting the health of an individual, organisation or population. The original and important articles in the journal investigate, report or discuss infection prevention and control; clinical, social, epidemiological or public health aspects of infectious disease; policy and planning for the control of infections; zoonoses; and vaccination related to disease in human health. Infection, Disease & Health provides a platform for the publication and dissemination of original knowledge at the nexus of the areas infection, Disease and health in a One Health context. One Health recognizes that the health of people is connected to the health of animals and the environment. One Health encourages and advances the collaborative efforts of multiple disciplines-working locally, nationally, and globally-to achieve the best health for people, animals, and our environment. This approach is fundamental because 6 out of every 10 infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic, or spread from animals. We would be expected to report or discuss infection prevention and control; clinical, social, epidemiological or public health aspects of infectious disease; policy and planning for the control of infections; zoonosis; and vaccination related to disease in human health. The Journal seeks to bring together knowledge from all specialties involved in infection research and clinical practice, and present the best work in this ever-changing field. The audience of the journal includes researchers, clinicians, health workers and public policy professionals concerned with infection, disease and health.
