Antibiotic resistance in Europe is linked to prescribing

Alexander Project; FINRES; STRAMA; DANMAP; Cars et al., 2001

SLIDE 5

European Community Strategy 2001

Promoted public education campaigns to avoid

veruse and misuse of antimicrobial agents

Through:

 raised awareness of resistance  proper prescription  good patient compliance  the value of hygiene  the impact of vaccination

SLIDE 6

Why educate school children through e-Bug?

But as important Half of children consulting their GP have an infection Majority are respiratory Antibiotics are the most common childhood medicines Children are our future generation of antibiotic users If we reduce childhood infections we reduce antibiotic use

SLIDE 7

 Primary mode of illness transmission via contaminated hands  Hand washing interventions reduce illnesses and absenteeism  Respiratory transmission important especially during flu outbreaks

Master et al. Fam Med 1997;29(5):336-9

Education in schools can help break the chain of infection

SLIDE 8

e-Bug aims

 Research, design & produce a teaching pack & website

for: 9-11 years and 12-14 years Covering: Prudent antibiotic use Hand hygiene Respiratory hygiene Importance of vaccines

 Translate and disseminate across Europe

Student Age (years) Junior packs Senior packs

Research period: Science school curriculum in associate partner countries

SLIDE 10

School curriculum: Microbes, hygiene and antibiotics

 All countries teach about microbes &

structured hand hygiene in the curriculum

f both target age groups

 All countries teach the importance of

covering the mouth and nose when sneezing

 Education on antibiotic resistance is limited

across Europe

SLIDE 11

Public antibiotic or hand hygiene campaigns and existing websites

SLIDE 12

In 2005 no ‘European’

campaigns

No similar character or slogan
No school campaigns on

antibiotic use

Lack of respiratory hygiene

campaigns that focus on spread of infection

Public antibiotic or hand hygiene campaigns and existing websites

SLIDE 13

Focus groups with teachers

 MUST link closely to the National Curriculum  MUST be adaptable  Important to have IT links  Cover a range of teaching styles  Student and teacher friendly
