Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the increasing challenge of antibiotic resistance due to the lack of new antimicrobial drugs, specifically focusing on carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria in Jordan.
- The research involved screening 1,043 bacterial isolates in an academic hospital and found a significant prevalence of carbapenem resistance, with Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumonia as the most commonly resistant species.
- The findings emphasize the need for local data to improve treatment strategies and call for enhanced infection control and monitoring efforts to combat antibiotic resistance in the region.
Objectives: The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the general public knowledge, attitudes, and practice regarding Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) reporting and pharmacovigilance in Jordan.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between July 16, 2022, and July 30, 2022, in Jordan. During the study period, an electronic survey consisting of 4 sections was administered to a convenience sample of Jordanians (aged 18 or above) using 2 social media platforms (Facebook and WhatsApp).
Objective: A limited number of educational interventions among health care providers and students have been made in Jordan concerning the pharmacovigilance. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to evaluate how an educational workshop affected the understanding of and attitudes toward pharmacovigilance among healthcare students and professionals in a Jordanian institution.
Methods: A questionnaire was used before and after an educational event to evaluate the pre- and post-knowledge and perception of pharmacovigilance and reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) among a variety of students and healthcare professionals at Jordan University Hospital.
Objectives: In this systematic review, we aimed to evaluate the clinical features, therapeutic options, and outcomes of children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and to investigate whether MIS-C is a new variant of Kawasaki disease.
Materials And Methods: Adhering to PRISMA principles, we searched for eligible studies between December 2019 and June 2020 through the following databases: PubMed, ISI Web of Science, SCOPUS, and Science Direct. Studies including original data of patients aged <21 years with MIS-C and descriptions of clinical signs, laboratory or radiological investigations were selected.
The present study aimed to see how well the newly designed internet hospital drug delivery platform model worked in the pharmacy department during the COVID-19 pandemic to make it easier for patients to get their prescribed drugs during the home quarantine. The internet hospital drug delivery platform was designed and activated by the pharmacy department in collaboration with the information technology department. The pharmacy department, in partnership with the information technology department, built and launched the internet hospital drug delivery platform (IHDD) immediately after the Jordanian government declared a full lockdown.

Study Design: Cross-sectional survey.
Methods: An online, self-administered questionnaire was instrumentalized to assess the factors affecting the Jordanian public's knowledge about COVID-19 vaccines and the influence of that knowledge on their decision to get vaccinated.
Objectives: To measure the prevalence of cases of potentially inappropriate prescribing (PIP) for older patients and to identify the risk factors for identified cases of PIP.
Methods: STOPP criteria version 2 were used for identifying cases of PIP for older patients (>65 years) who were admitted to a tertiary hospital in Jordan over a period of 18 months. Data were collected by prospectively reviewing the clinical and prescription records of included patients.
The Global Point Prevalence Survey (Global-PPS) provides a standardised method to conduct surveillance of antimicrobial prescribing and resistance at hospital level. The aim of the present study was to assess antimicrobial consumption and resistance in a Jordan teaching hospital as part of the Global-PPS network. Detailed antimicrobial prescription data were collected according to the Global Point Prevalence Survey protocol.
