Antimicrobial Alert
10/06/2014
Antimicrobial resistance is now recognised as one of the majormedical challenges in the 21st century.
The potential impact of increasing antimicrobial resistance on the treatment of man and animals is
devastating. It is vital therefore that the medical and veterinary professions and the pharmaceutical
industry work together to inform, encourage and facilitate the responsible use of antimicrobials.
Skyna is part of a collaborative group, which currently includes BSAVA,Abbey Veterinary Laboratories
CAPL, the Bella Moss Foundation and Medimark.The group plans to organise a series of webinars and l
practica workshops for veterinary surgeons in the UK, with the agreed objective to enable participants
to make informed decisions regarding antimicrobial use and infection control in practice.
The free webinar series will provide information on 4 key topics:
• How to know if infection is present
• Sampling and interpretation of culture and sensitivity
• Infection control in the practice
•Rational use of antimicrobials Webinars will run quarterly,
with the first scheduled for later this summer.
The practical workshops will build on the information provided by the webinars, and will include
sessions on decision making in the use of antimicrobials, client communication,
and infection control within the practice.
There will be the opportunity to gain practical skills in cytology and interpretation
of culture / sensitivity, and to work together to develop protocols for your own practice.
