Background The Thailand National Strategic Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) 2017–2021, endorsed by the Thai Cabinet in 2016, aims to increase public knowledge about antibiotics and AMR awareness 20% 2021. This study assesses prevalence of use, clinical indications sources; access information related AMR; factors level among adult population. Methods An module was developed embedded into 2017 Health Welfare Survey; a cross-sectional, two-stage stratified sampling, nationally...
Abstract Background Lack of knowledge and awareness on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can result in irrational use antibiotics, which is one the major drivers AMR. One goal Thailand National Strategic Plan AMR (2017-2021) a 20% increase public antibiotic by 2021. This study assesses use, level factors associated with their Thai population 2019. It compares findings similar national survey 2017. Methods An module was integrated into Health Welfare Survey, biennial household conducted...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens health security and the economy worldwide. AMR bacteria can spread across humans, animals, food webs environment. Excessive use of antimicrobials in food-producing animals has been recognised as one main drivers emergence resistant bacteria. This study aims to quantify identify patterns antimicrobial consumption Thailand a three-year period (2017–2019). Milligrams active ingredient from total volume imported locally manufactured products minus exports...
To describe the antibiotic use among hospitalized patients in Thailand.A standardized cross-sectional point prevalence survey (PPS) modified from WHO PPS protocol was conducted 41 selected hospitals Thailand. All inpatients who received an at 9 a.m. on date were enrolled. The total number of that day denominator.Between March and May 2021, a 8958 enumerated; 4745 antibiotics there 6619 prescriptions antibiotics. 53.0% (95% CI 51.1%-54.0%), ranging 14.3% to 73.4%. highest adults aged >65...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), one of the major global threats to human security, has serious negative consequences for both health and economies. Excessive inappropriate uses antibiotics are main drivers emergence resistant bacterial strains. In Thailand, have been used in citrus production since 2012 treat greening disease or Huanglongbing disease, despite no being registered use mandarin. This raises concerns about irrational antibiotics, which can cause AMR.To assess status mandarin...
Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) pose a grave threat to patient safety, morbidity, and mortality, contributing antimicrobial resistance. Thus, we estimated the point prevalence, risk factors, types, pathogens of HAIs in hospitalized pediatric patients. Methods: A prevalence survey (PPS) patients < 18 years old was conducted from March May 2021. Outcomes, types associated with 41 hospitals across Thailand were collected. Results: The 3.9% (95% CI 2.9–5.0%) (56/1443). By...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health concern with significant implications on economies and security, affecting humans, animals, food, the environment. To tackle this issue, promoting responsible antimicrobial use in livestock production has emerged as crucial intervention. In 2018, Thailand introduced Voluntary Optimization of Consumption (VOAC) programme, objective to encourage practises. This study aimed analyse context, content, process actors VOAC programme. A qualitative...
