Genomics Working Group Executive Summary

Professor Kate Baker (Co-lead) (group lead) Dr Elita Jauneikaite (Co-lead) (group lead) Professor Sharon Peacock Professor Nicholas Feasey Dr Janet Midega et al

06 July, 2022

SARS-CoV-2 has bought about a step change in global microbial pathogen surveillance by highlighting the potential and capacity for genomics to deliver actionable information in real time. The time has now come to build on and deliver the use cases for combating AMR. SEDRIC convened a working group to evaluate ...

Laboratory informatics capacity for effective antimicrobial resistance surveillance in resource-limited settings

Turner P, Rupali P, Opintan J, Jaoko W, Feasey N, Peacock S, Ashley E

15 April, 2021

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to human health globally. Surveillance is a key activity to determine AMR burden, impacts, and trends and to monitor effects of interventions. Surveillance systems require efficient capture and onward sharing of high-quality laboratory data. Substantial investment is being made to improve laboratory capacity, ...

Leapfrogging laboratories: the promise and pitfalls of high-tech solutions for antimicrobial resistance surveillance in low-income settings

Okeke I, Feasey N, Parkhill J, Turner P, Limmathurotsakul D, Georgiou P, Holmes A, Peacock S

25 October, 2020

This publication identifies hurdles to effective surveillance of drug resistant infections in many low-income settings and encourages an open attitude towards new and evolving technologies that, if adopted, could close surveillance gaps. Emerging technologies have the potential to facilitate the collection and analysis of local antimicrobial resistance data. The availability ...

Setting priorities for patient-centred surveillance of drug-resistant infections

Ashley E, McLean A, Chiara F, Feasey N, Jaoko W, A. Opintan, J Peacock S, Rupali P, Turner P

02 June, 2020

SEDRIC's first working group [Antimicrobial Resistance & Data] conducted a survey to identify barriers to diagnosis, treatment and prevention of antimicrobial resistance in LMICs. Responses highlighted three research areas in need of funding: infection prevention and control measures designed to meet the need in LMICs, improved electronic patient records, starting with ...

Improving the estimation of the global burden of antimicrobial resistant infections

Limmathurotsakul D, Dunachie S, Fukuda K, Feasey NA, Okeke IN, Holmes AH, Moore CE, Dolecek C, van Doorn HR, Shetty N, Lopez AD, Peacock SJ

16 August, 2019

This paper illustrates limitations of current methods to estimate the global mortality from antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Two lead attempts have been made by the O’Neill review and the GBD 2016 study. This paper demonstrates that a direct comparison of these estimates is not possible due to the different methodological approaches, ...

Harnessing alternative sources of antimicrobial resistance data to support surveillance in low-resource settings

Elizabeth A Ashley, Nandini Shetty, Jean Patel, Rogier van Doorn, Direk Limmathurotsakul, Nicholas A Feasey, Iruka N Okeke, and Sharon J Peacock

13 December, 2019

This paper evaluates the diverse sources of data in LMICs that could be used to bridge the gap between now and the time when public-sector surveillance capacity is established. Data generation and sharing are key challenges in the global surveillance of drug-resistant infections. The challenge is greater in poor resource ...

Surveillance and Epidemiology of Drug-Resistant Infections Consortium (SEDRIC): Supporting the transition from strategy to action

Keiji Fukuda, Direk Limmathurotsakul, Direk Limmathurotsakul, Nandini Shetty, Rogier van Doorn, Nicholas A. Feasey, Francesca Chiara, Ghada Zoubiane, Tim Jinks, Julian Parkhill, Jean Patel, Stuart W.J. Reid, Alison H. Holmes, Sharon J. Peacock and SEDRIC

27 June, 2018

This paper outlines the aims of SEDRIC and highlights areas for action. Surveillance and epidemiology are central in the control of antibiotic resistance. There is a clear need to intensify the generation, collection, collation and distribution of high-quality epidemiological data. SEDRIC (Surveillance and Epidemiology of Drug-Resistant Infections Consortium) was established ...
