Scoping and strengthening the Antimicrobial Stewardship landscape for novel antibiotics in Kenya
This poster, originally presented at the 2024 ReAct Africa and South Centre Conference, shares plans for a pilot project in coordination with Ministry of Health (MoH) Kenya, GARDP and tertiary health care facilities (HCFs) in Nairobi to improve Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) preparedness for Cefiderocol introduction and use.
This scoping project is designed to conduct a preliminary health system analysis, including policy and economic aspects. It seeks to understand the drivers and enablers in the healthcare system, from the health care facility level (micro level) to the national policy level (macro level), to support an AMS program ecosystem. In addition, it will undertake stakeholder mapping and organize stakeholder consultations to lay the ground for appropriate use of novel antibiotics in selected HCFs in Kenya.
