  • Consideration of Antibacterial Medicines As Part Of
    Consideration of antibacterial medicines as part of the revisions to 2019 WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for adults (EML) and Model List of Essential Medicines for children (EMLc) Section 6.2 Antibacterials including Access, Watch and Reserve Lists of antibiotics This summary has been prepared by the Health Technologies and Pharmaceuticals (HTP) programme at the WHO Regional Office for Europe. It is intended to communicate changes to the 2019 WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for adults (EML) and Model List of Essential Medicines for children (EMLc) to national counterparts involved in the evidence-based selection of medicines for inclusion in national essential medicines lists (NEMLs), lists of medicines for inclusion in reimbursement programs, and medicine formularies for use in primary, secondary and tertiary care.

  • Indirect Comparison of Efficacy Between Different Antibiotic Prophylaxis Against the Intracranial Infection After Craniotomy
    Cao et al. Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control (2020) 9:122 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13756-020-00784-9 RESEARCH Open Access Indirect comparison of efficacy between different antibiotic prophylaxis against the intracranial infection after craniotomy Yulong Cao1, Bin Wang2, Jiao Shan3, Zhizhong Gong4, Jiqiu Kuang1 and Yan Gao1* Abstract Background: Many studies had shown that prophylactic use of antibiotics could significantly reduce the intracranial infection (ICI) rate of craniotomy. However, there has been no comparison of these antibiotics. Methods: An electronic database search was performed, from inception to June 102,020. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) using different intravenous antibiotics (IVA) against the ICIs after craniotomy were considered. The primary outcome was the incidence rates of ICIs. An indirect treatment comparison (ITC) was conducted to compare the protective effect among the diverse antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent ICIs after craniotomy. Risk of potential bias was assessed. Results: A total of 3214 patients after craniotomy in 11 studies were included, 159 patients experienced postoperative ICI, including 33 patients in the antibacterial group and 126 in the control group. The calculate results of meta-analysis showed that except fusidic acid, preoperative intravenous injection of cephalosporin, clindamycin, vancomycin, and penicillin can significantly reduce the incidence of ICI after craniotomy, and ITC showed there was no statistically significance difference in the rates of post craniotomy ICI between the various antibiotics. Conclusion: The current evidence shows that low-grade antibacterial drugs can be selected to prevent ICI after craniotomy, but this may be due to the limited number of studies per antibiotic. It still needs more high-quality, large sample RCT to confirm.

  • Statistical Analysis Plan / Data Specifications the Risk of Acute Liver Injury Associated with the Use of Antibiotics. a Replica
    WP6 validation on methods involving an extended audience Statistical analysis plan / data specifications The risk of acute liver injury associated with the use of antibiotics. A replication study in the Utrecht Patient Oriented Database Version: July 11, 2013 Authors: Renate Udo, Marie L De Bruin Reviewers: Work package 6 members (David Irvine, Stephany Tcherny-Lessenot) 1 1. Context The study described in this protocol is performed within the framework of PROTECT (Pharmacoepidemiological Research on Outcomes of Therapeutics by a European ConsorTium). The overall objective of PROTECT is to strengthen the monitoring of the benefit-risk of medicines in Europe. Work package 6 “validation on methods involving an extended audience” aims to test the transferability/feasibility of methods developed in other WPs (in particular WP2 and WP5) in a range of data sources owned or managed by Consortium Partners or members of the Extended Audience. The specific aims of this study within WP6 are: to evaluate the external validity of the study protocol on the risk of acute liver injury associated with the use of antibiotics by replicating the study protocol in another database, to study the impact of case validation on the effect estimate for the association between antibiotic exposure and acute liver injury. Of the selected drug-adverse event pairs selected in PROTECT, this study will concentrate on the association between antibiotic use and acute liver injury. On this topic, two sub-studies are performed: a descriptive/outcome validation study and an association study.

Reproduction is authorised provided the source is acknowledged. Introduction On 6 February 2019, the European Commission sent a request to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for a report on the criteria for the designation of antimicrobials to be reserved for the treatment of certain infections in humans in order to preserve the efficacy of those antimicrobials. The Agency was requested to provide a report by 31 October 2019 containing recommendations to the Commission as to which criteria should be used to determine those antimicrobials to be reserved for treatment of certain infections in humans (this is also referred to as ‘criteria for designating antimicrobials for human use’, ‘restricting antimicrobials to human use’, or ‘reserved for human use only’). The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) formed an expert group to prepare the scientific report. The group was composed of seven experts selected from the European network of experts, on the basis of recommendations from the national competent authorities, one expert nominated from European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), one expert nominated by European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), one expert with expertise on human infectious diseases, and two Agency staff members with expertise on development of antimicrobial resistance .
