Great presentation today from Queeneth, one of trainee pharmacists about the impact of unit dose dispensing on antibiotic consumption on one of our wards. Looking forward to expanding on this work with more data in the future.

Delighted to present our UK-US collaborative work at #ECCMID2024 from 6 UK trusts and 19 US hospitals. No matter the size of 🏥, in US or UK: 0.9 antibiotic 💉were given per 🛌 per day Dr Ryan Hamilton Stephen hughes Corrine Ashton Syed Gilani Erin McCreary @jpogue1

A pleasure to present the #Midlands #AMS pharmacists collaborative project on AWaRe antibiotic use at #ECCMID2024 13 midlands Trusts collected data on pre-pack and FP(10) use for three oral Watch antibiotics.

On average one fifth of total broad spectrum antibiotic use was issued as a pre-pack or FP(10) 🤯🤯🤯 Another area for AMS teams to scrutinize to reduce consumption. UHB Pharmacy UHB IPC Team @jamiesonce Dr Ryan Hamilton Corrine Ashton Syed Gilani Kayleigh
