AACTING project

Network on quantification of veterinary antimicrobial usage at herd level and analysis, communication and benchmarking to improve responsible usage

Contact Person: Luís Pedro Carmo

Duration: September 2017

The main aim of this project is to develop guidelines with practical advises on setting up systems for collection of AMU data at farm level that are applicable to guide antimicrobial stewardship. In addition, a review of existing systems for the collecting and reporting of farm-level AMU data will be established based on an analysis of strengths and weaknesses of the different systems.
