Despite the discovery of antibiotics revolutionizing medicine in the 1940s, the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) now threatens these medical advancements. AMR is a growing global crisis. It was responsible for an estimated 1.27 million deaths worldwide in 2019 and contributes to over 2.8 million drug-resistant infections annually in the U.S., with considerable health care impacts.
Addressing AMR requires a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. Clinical microbiologists play a crucial role in advancing diagnostic technologies to better identify and manage resistant infections. This eBook offers valuable insights into the AMR crisis and outlines both established and emerging strategies to combat it.
