The Strama model and successful improvement of antibiotic prescription in Sweden

There are no conflicts of interest

Christina Åhrén and Lars Blad

Strama Region Västra Götaland och Strama Västernorrland

The Swedish strategic programme against

antibiotic resistance

“ tighten things up”

National collaboration network

against antibiotic resistance

with the goal to preserve the effectiveness

of available antibiotics.

We can not stop but we hope

to halt antibiotic resistance development

- important steps!

Good hygiene

Use antibiotics

according to guidelinesReduce infection rates

Sweden has a comparatively favourable situation regarding antibiotic resistance

Survival and spread of

antibiotic resistant bacteria

Poor Hygiene &Infection Control

The two main factors we can influence

to reduce ABR in human health care:

General knowledge:

There is a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance

Founded in 1995. The remit from the Government

is to collaborate interdisciplinary on issues

aiming to preserve the effectiveness of antibiotics.

ABR:

• ResNet (1994/2002)

• SmiNet (notifiables)

• SveBar

What has Strama done/contributed to?• Monitored and analyzed ABR and AB use

• Updated guidelines

• Implemented guidelines

• Set goals: pcV, quinolones, 250..

• Education campaigns: childrens day care, child health, LTCF/care for the elderly..

• Monitoring of complications

• System for diagnosis related AB prescription, hospitals..

• Information to media, public, politicians

• Broadening to multiple sectors of society

• Bacteria have no borders..

19

Example 1: pneumococci

• Signal/starting point: 90’s, alarming

increase of R in Southern Sweden

• Action necessary, broad measures:

– Decrease ab pressure!

• Strama network is formed 1995

– Reduce spread!

• PRP: mandatory reporting, tracing, containment

measures

• ”Anti-infection prophylaxis” for pre-school children

Important success factors:

• Local engagement – energy from patient contacts

• Multidisciplinary composition of groups; at local and national levels

• Media exposure – public and decisionmakers informed

• Network – bottoms-up, top-down, and LATERAL sharing

• Regularly updated, evidence-based national guidelines, concentrated and brought to the prescriber in and end-user friendly format; including peer-to-peer discussions in small groups

Anton som är 25 år och tidigare frisk söker vårdcentralen med halsont sedan två dagar tillbaka. Han har ingen

hosta eller snuva. Det gör ont när han sväljer men han kan äta och dricka. Han är helt opåverkad och har temp

38,1 °. Vid inspektion av mun och svalg ses rodnade tonsiller med beläggningar. Inga palpabla lymfkörtlar på

halsen.

1. Hur många Centorkriterier har Anton?

1. 2

X. 3

2. 4

2. Ska vi ta några prover?

2. Inga prover behövs

3. När rekommenderas antibiotikabehandling vid faryngotonsillit?

spridda liksidiga biljud vid lungauskultation, i övrigt är status normalt.

4. Vad gör du?

1. Tar CRP för att bedöma behov av antibiotikabehandling

X. Exspektans

2. En vecka

6. När har antibiotika effekt vid en akut bronkit?

1. Om bronkiten orsakas av en bakterie

X. Om bronkiten orsakas av mycoplasma

2. Antibiotika har ingen effekt vid akut bronkit

Fall C.

Elias som är 2½ år gammal kommer till vårdcentralen pga värk i båda öronen sedan igår. Han är förkyld och

hostig sedan 3-4 dagar, idag temp 39,1°. Han har haft en akut mediaotit (AOM) för ett år sedan, för övrigt frisk.

Han leker i väntrummet. Status: Opåverkad. Båda trumhinnorna är ogenomskinliga, färgförändrade, buktande

och rör sig inte vid siegling.

7. Vad gör du?

frisk för övrigt och är på jobbet (kontorsarbete).

9. Vad gör du?

X: Förskriver antibiotika i sinuitdos

2. Exspektans, symtomlindrande behandling

Fall E.

Sara är 42 år och söker med typiska cystitsymtom. Hon är i övrigt frisk, inte gravid och har inte feber,

flanksmärta eller genitala symtom.

10. Vilken är den avgörande faktorn för att erbjuda antibiotikabehandling?

1. Resultatet av urinstickan

www.vgregion.se/strama

Reports 2013-2015

• 92-86 % (178-186/200) PHCC reported

• >1000 doctors/year participated in an educational group discussion

• two case discussions

• prescription patterns

• 2015: >700 doctors did the quiz

Report 2015

• Medical records exchanged, read and discussed

• voluntary

• 3 notes/doctor 15 minutes

• all should read

• 60% of PHCC chose this option

• >2000 visits for ID were read

• median: 15 ( 6-150) ID visits

Conclusions from reports

• There is still a need for increased

knowledge about updated guidelines

• Educational group discussions appreciated

• comparative data engage

• awareness of one`s (unknown) behavior

• reading records positive

Conclusions from reports

“It is not only about doctors”

• Everybody has to "talk the same language”

with the patients• receptionist doctor must be educated

• Structural factors at the PHCC are of great

importance

• ”do not see the doctor unless necessary”

• reduce patient drop-in, nurse triage

• local guidelines agreed upon

• continuity in staff employment

• management

Education – not only doctors!

Factors for success• Joint national initiative

• Local management back-up

• Top, including politicians PHCC

• Economic incentives

• Worked with the local PHCC/”Strama -

doctors”

• Facilitate the local process, keep it simple!

• Alert continuously

• Joint enemy, important to defeat

Upcoming challenges

• Keep the good work going in PHC

• Lack of time and staff

• Demand for high availability

• Follow complication rates

• Increase compliance in hospital care

Thank you for the attention!

Media campaign – no long-lasting effect !
