1. Improve

Infection

Prevention and

Control

practices

Every infection prevented means less

antibiotics used

Lowering the use of antibiotics lowers the

risk of resistance

“We need to get to a point where:

good infection prevention and

control measures to help prevent

infections occurring become the

norm in all sectors …..”

Healthy Eating: “The Route to

Health and Wellbeing”

Peter Stevenson

Compassion in World Farming

Most antibiotic use is in intensive sector

• Prophylactic use is “particularly prevalent in intensive agriculture,

where animals are kept in confined conditions”: The Review on

Antimicrobial Resistance, December 2015

• Around 90% of UK farm antibiotic use is in pigs & poultry, the two

most intensively farmed species

• WHO: growing demand for meat “especially when met by intensive

farming practices, contributes to the massive use of antibiotics in

livestock production”

• FAO: “the prevalence of resistance in the agricultural sector is

generally higher in animal species reared under intensive production

systems”

Do we need to increase food production to

meet the demands of a growing population?

• Many argue we need to increase food production by

• And so, driven by that imperative, we must further

intensify agriculture including livestock sector

• And that will mean increased antibiotics use – and

increased resistance

Do we really need a major increase in production?

• Worldwide 25% of food calories are lost or wasted post

harvest or at the distribution/retail & consumer levels: High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition, 2014

• 9% is used for biofuels & other industrial purposes: Cassidy et al, 2013

• 36% of global crop calories are used as animal feed: Cassidy et al, 2013

What happens to the 36% of the world’s crop calories

used as animal feed?

For every 100 calories of human-edible cereals fed to animals, just 17-

30 calories enter the human food chain as meat or milk: Lundqvist et al,

2008; UNEP, 2009

Some studies indicate the conversion rate is even lower for meat

Waste Fruitful

Many recognise that feeding cereals to animals is wasteful

Chatham House: “staggeringly inefficient”

International Institute for

Environment and Development: “colossally inefficient”

FAO: “potential to threaten food security”

Bajželj et al, 2014

“a very inefficient use of land to produce food”

Feeding the 2.6 billion extra people anticipated by 2050

People (in billions)

Extra people (in billions) that couldbe fed by reducing over consumption

Based on data from UNEP, 2009; Cassidy et al, 2013;High Level

Panel of Experts of the Committee on World Security, 2014; World

Resources Institute, 2013,

The false premise that we need to hugely increase

production will drive further intensification of livestock

–and with it increased use of antibiotics

Transformation of the role of

livestock

• Research funded by the FAO examines a reduction (possibly to

zero) in use of grain as animal feed as this competes with crop

production for direct human consumption: Schader et al, 2015: two of

the authors work for FAO

• The study argues that the role of livestock “is to use resources that

cannot be otherwise used for food production”

• Pasture

• By- products

• Unavoidable food waste

• Integrated crop-livestock farming - in line with circular economy

principles. The waste products of one component serve as a

resource for the other: animals are fed on crop residues & their

manure, rather than being a pollutant, fertilises the land.

Reduction of use of grain as feed would lead to

reduced production of meat & dairy

• What would happen if we were to move to healthier diets – more

fruit, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts & seeds and less red

& processed meat?

• Animals could be farmed less intensively with an end to routine

preventive use of antibiotics

• Need to “develop health-orientated systems for rearing of animals”:The Lancet Infectious Diseases Commission, 2013

Reduced consumption of meat & dairy would

bring many benefits

• This would bring health benefits:

• reduced use of antibiotics in livestock sector

• reduced heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, diabetes: European

Commission 2012; Friel et al, 2009; Aston et al, 2012

• consumption of red meat in Europe is on average more than twice

as much as the recommended limit: Westhoek et al, 2015

• average per capita protein intake in the EU is about 70% higher than

required: Westhoek et al, 2015

Well below 2°C

By 2050 our diets alone likely to have taken us

above the ‘well below 2°C’ target: Bajželj et al, 2014

presentation by Antony Froggatt “Putting

Meat on the Climate Negotiating Table”,

December 2015

Reduced meat & dairy consumption could bridge over a quarter of the gap

between emissions pledged & emissions needed to meet ‘well below 2°C’ target

Reduced consumption of meat & dairy would bring

environmental benefits

Factor affected by

Antimicrobial stewardship: Changing risk-related

behaviours in the general population

Jacqueline Sneddon

Antimicrobial Pharmacist

Disclaimer

• I am a ‘topic expert member’ for the guideline on

‘Antimicrobial stewardship: Changing risk-

related behaviours in the general population’

• I am not a NICE employee

• NICE has not had prior sight or approval of this

presentation

The background: why NICE was

set up• Established in 1999

• Aim: to reduce variation in the

availability and quality of

treatments and care (the so

called ‘postcode lottery’)

• To resolve uncertainty about

which medicines and

treatments work best and

which represent best value for

money for the NHS

Core principles of NICE’s work

• Based on the best evidence available

• Expert input

• Patient and carer involvement

• Independent advisory committees

• Genuine consultation

• Regular review

• Open and transparent process

• Social values and equity considerations

NICE Guidance by Year

Antimicrobial stewardship:

Changing risk-related

behaviours in the general

population

Guideline due for publication

2016• This is a Public Health Guideline and has

been in development for about 18 months

• Core PH committee members plus 6 topic

experts

• Limited evidence base impact of

interventions

• Public consultation on guidance:

8 September to 20 October 2015

• Interventions to change public behaviours

to reduce development of AMR and stop

spread of resistant microbes

– Includes measures to raise awareness and

knowledge about antibiotic use and AMR

– Includes measures to prevent and control

infection

Target audience

• Those with responsibility for prescribing and

dispensing antimicrobials

• Those in public health

• Those who give information and advice to the

public

• Those responsible for preventing and controlling

infections

• The public themselves – especially vulnerable

groups

Draft guideline - Seven areas of

recommendation1. National and local information

campaigns

2. Public interventions to prevent

infection

3. Interventions to reduce inappropriate

antimicrobial demand and use

4. Childcare settings

5. Schools

6. Educational and residential settings

for young adults

7. Healthcare settings

Setting-specific

recommendations

1. National and local information

campaigns

• Raise awareness of AMR and appropriate

antimicrobial use

• Give info on preventing and controlling

infections e.g. “Now wash your hands”

• Using range of modes of delivery (verbal

advice, multimedia, written, mass media)

2. Public interventions to

prevent infection

• Advice on hand washing (including when

and how to wash hands; when hand

sanitisers are / are not appropriate)

• Food hygiene advice

• Wider aspects of infection prevention

(such as the need for vaccinations)

3. Reduce inappropriate

antimicrobial demand and use

• Educating patients and the public about the

natural course of self-limiting conditions

(including red-flag symptoms)

• Educating the public about where to seek

help/advice if/when they need it (e.g. use

pharmacies rather than A&E)

• Advising people to use prescribed antimicrobials

appropriately – complete the course, don’t

share, don’t keep

Role of community pharmacy

• Expertise of pharmacists in managing symptoms

and providing advice on medicines often under

utilised

• Accessible to all 7 days a week

• Promote as first port of call for patients with

symptoms of self-limiting infections

• Can refer to GP if required and highlight signs of

serious illness

Personalised symptom advice

4. Childcare settings

• Clean premises and equipment appropriately

• Provide hand washing facilities for staff and

children

• Educate children about hand washing, involving

parents and carers

• Ensure parents and carers are aware of the

importance of preventing spread of infections and

appropriate antimicrobial use to reduce AMR

5. Schools

• Take a ‘whole-school’ approach

• Provide hand washing facilities, and teach hand

washing in an age-appropriate way

• Use teaching resources such as PHE’s “e-bug”

to educate children about microbes and AMR

• Consider integration of wider messages within

curriculum as well as involving parents and

carers

E-bug resources

http://www.e-bug.eu/

6. Educational and residential

settings for young adults

• Awareness raising activities, including about

hand washing (with posters in strategic

locations) and food-safety campaigns

• Raise awareness about other aspects of

infection prevention (e.g. vaccinations)

• Help students to understand about self-care and

where to seek help

7. Healthcare settings

• Give advice about self-limiting conditions,

including natural course and where to seek help

• Consider using decision-support aids to

encourage health professionals not to prescribe

antibiotics for self-limiting conditions

• When not prescribing antibiotics, explain why,

and give written information including safety-

netting advice

• When prescribing antibiotics, explain why, and

give written information on antibiotics

Research recommendations

• Cost-effectiveness

• Multi-component interventions

• High-risk groups

• Workplaces

Overarching implementation

• Consider developing a local area

antimicrobial stewardship strategy linking

public health, local authorities, healthcare,

and social care.
