Mandating the use of electronic health records
(EHRs) across all medical systems has numerous benefits and is crucial for advancing healthcare in today’s digital age. Here are several reasons why implementing EHRs as a universal standard is important:
Enhanced Patient Care: Electronic health records allow for comprehensive and readily accessible patient information. With EHRs, healthcare providers have instant access to medical histories, test results, medications, allergies, and treatment plans. This facilitates more accurate and coordinated care, enabling healthcare professionals to make informed decisions and provide timely interventions.
Improved Patient Safety: EHRs contribute to enhanced patient safety by reducing errors and minimizing the potential for miscommunication. The use of standardized electronic formats for recording and transmitting information reduces the risk of illegible handwriting, misplaced paper records, and lost or incomplete documentation. EHRs also support alerts and reminders for medication interactions, allergies, and preventive care, helping healthcare providers deliver safer and more effective treatments.
Efficient Information Exchange: Electronic health records enable seamless sharing and exchange of patient information among different healthcare providers, clinics, hospitals, and healthcare systems. This improves care coordination, particularly during transitions of care, such as referrals or hospital admissions. The ability to quickly access and transmit patient data promotes timely decision-making and eliminates the need for redundant tests or procedures.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites
