Purpose: The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate the patterns of postsurgical site infections, pre-surgical antibiotics prophylaxis, and related clinical outcomes in the recently published literature.
Methods: This systematic review is registered with PROSPERO registration number CRD42023398963. Several databases and individual journal websites were used to collect data from PubMed/Medline, TRIP, SCOPUS, Elsevier, Springer, ProQuest, and EMBASE.
Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in hospitalized companion animals in China in 2022-23.
JAC Antimicrob Resist
February 2025
Zoetis Reference Laboratory, Shanghai, China.
Objectives: In this study, bacteria isolated from companion animals in China were taxonomically identified and assessed for antimicrobial susceptibility to evaluate the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pets.
Methods: From October 2022 to October 2023, 5468 samples were collected from pets, predominantly from cats and dogs, in China, of which 5253 bacterial strains were identified (>98%). Antimicrobial susceptibility was assessed using the VITEK 2 COMPACT system and the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method.
The Global Prevalence of Reported Penicillin Allergy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
J Infect
January 2025
Department of Infectious diseases- Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London.
Objectives: Patients labelled with penicillin allergy (PenA) often receive broader spectrum antibiotics, associated with antimicrobial resistance and poorer outcomes. However, ~95% of patients are likely mis-labelled. Whilst de-labelling programmes are gaining momentum, they have been restricted to a few countries.

January 2025
Second Surgical Oncology Department, Regional Institute of Oncology, Iasi, Romania.
Introduction: Antibiotic overuse is driving a global rise in antibiotic resistance, highlighting the need for robust antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) initiatives to improve prescription practices. While antimicrobials are essential for treating sepsis and preventing surgical site infections (SSIs), they can inadvertently disrupt the gut microbiota, leading to postoperative complications. Treatment methods vary widely across nations due to differences in drug choice, dosage, and therapy duration, affecting antibiotic resistance rates, which can reach up to 51% in some countries.

February 2025
Division of Medical Microbiology, University of Cape Town, Cape Town, South Africa.
Background: Research on the contextual drivers of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programme interventions in neonatal units is limited.
Methods: As part of a prospective mixed-methods multidisciplinary neonatal AMS (NeoAMS) interventional study in 14 South African hospitals, we applied a three-phased process to assess implementation barriers and contextual drivers experienced by participating health professionals. The study included: (Phase one; P1) a survey of pre-intervention barriers and enablers; (P2) written feedback during the study intervention phase; and (P3) semi-structured exit interviews.
