Applicability of cascade reporting among the uropathogens from a tertiary healthcare center : A pilot study targeting antimicrobial stewardship intervention.
Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a mounting global health problem underlining the need for an effective antimicrobial stewardship program (AMSP). Cascade reporting holds a major role in AMSP. The recent introduction of a tier system for cascade reporting in CLSI 2023 suggests restricted reporting for second-line or broader-spectrum antimicrobial agents .
Methods: In this pilot study, Tier 1 and Tier 2 antibiotics were identified for different group of uropathogens based on available antibiogram data. Uropathogens with significant bacteriuria were identified over a period of 10 months (March-December, 2023) and their antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) pattern was analyzed as per the tier system.
Results: Cascade reporting was done in 10.6% of samples with significant bacteriuria and a majority of these isolates belonged to the in-patient department (IPD) with high susceptibility to four different classes of antibiotics in Tier 1.
Conclusion: This study emphasizes the scope of cascade reporting in antimicrobial stewardship at a tertiary healthcare center in India.
