Research recommendations coming out of this guidance

  • The committee recommended that further research is needed to measure the wider effects on public health and the costs of antimicrobial stewardship associated with different classes of antibiotics used in different healthcare settings. This will help to inform the development of technologies to guide more targeted use of antibiotics and wider UK antimicrobial resistance policy.
