dc.description.abstract | To the Editor: The inappropriate and excessive use of antimicrobial
agents has cultivated the development and progression of antimicrobial
resistance worldwide, which has been recognised as a
threat to global health and safety.[1] In response to this alarming
growth in antimicrobial resistance, antimicrobial stewardship
initiatives, which aim to improve the judicious use of antimicrobial
agents, have gained global support.[2] The Antimicrobial Resistance
Strategy Framework in South Africa (SA) recognises the education of
healthcare professionals as a strategy for containment of antimicrobial
resistance in SA.[3] | en_US |
