Background Reporting cumulative antimicrobial susceptibility testing data on a regular basis is crucial to inform resistance (AMR) action plans at local, national, and global levels. However, analyzing generating report are time consuming often require trained personnel. Objective This study aimed develop test an application that can support local hospital analyze routinely collected electronic independently generate AMR surveillance reports rapidly. Methods An offline standardized from...
BackgroundLittle research has been published on the prevalence of rickettsial infections in Myanmar. This study determined seroprevalence immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to species different regions Myanmar.MethodsSeven hundred leftover blood samples from patients all ages primary care clinics and hospitals seven Myanmar were collected. Samples screened for scrub typhus group (STG), (TG) spotted fever (SFG) IgG using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Immunofluorescence performed...
Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram-negative bacterium found in soil and water many tropical countries. It causes melioidosis, potentially fatal infection first described 1911 Myanmar. Melioidosis common cause of sepsis death South South-east Asia, but it rarely diagnosed We conducted nationwide study to identify areas where B. present.
Lower respiratory infections constitute a major disease burden worldwide. Treatment is usually empiric and targeted towards typical bacterial pathogens. Understanding the prevalence of pathogens not covered by empirical treatment important to improve diagnostic algorithms.A prospective observational study in peri-urban communities Yangon, Myanmar was conducted between July 2018 April 2019. Sputum specimens 299 adults presenting with fever productive cough were tested for Mycobacterium...
ABSTRACT Background Reporting cumulative antimicrobial susceptibility testing data on a regular basis is crucial to inform resistance (AMR) action plans at local, national and global levels. However, analysing generating report are time-consuming often require trained personnel. We illustrate the development utility of an offline, open-access automated tool that can support generation AMR surveillance reports promptly local level. Methods An offline application generate standardized from...
