Rianka Haenen

The emergence of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) poses a critical threat to global public health. Antibiotic stewardship programs have become essential tools in combating this growing crisis. This article explores the innovations and challenges associated with antibiotic stewardship in the context of AMR. It delves into the latest advancements in stewardship strategies, the role of technology, and the socio-economic factors influencing antibiotic use. By critically examining these aspects, we aim to provide insights that will guide efforts to optimize antibiotic use, preserve these life-saving drugs, and mitigate the consequences of AMR.
