One of the five strategic objectives of the Global action plan is to strengthen the evidence base through enhanced global surveillance and research. The Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS) has been developed to facilitate and encourage a standardized approach to AMR surveillance globally and in turn support the implementation of the Global action plan on antimicrobial resistance. This manual addresses the early phase of implementation of GLASS, focussing on surveillance of resistance in common human bacterial pathogens. The intended readership of this publication is public health professionals and health authorities responsible for national AMR surveillance. It outlines the GLASS standards and describes the road map for implementation of the system between 2015 and 2019. Further development of GLASS will be based on the lessons learnt during this period"--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Drug resistance in microorganisms. 650 0 $a Bacterial diseases $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Anti-infective agents. 650 0 $a World health. 710 2 $a World Health Organization, $e issuing body. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170907010250.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6764E83E774811E7923FA1BEDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
