ANTIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP ENGINE

Antibiotic Resistance Checker & Risk Calculator

Evaluate antimicrobial treatment failure probability and drug-resistant bacterial infection risk. Powered by WHO AWaRe stewardship guidelines, historical broad-spectrum exposure analysis, and inflammatory laboratory biomarkers (WBC, CRP, Procalcitonin).

Why Broad-Spectrum History Matters

Repeated use of fluoroquinolones (Ciprofloxacin) or 3rd-gen cephalosporins (Cefixime) creates selective pressure, increasing odds of ESBL-producing enterobacteriaceae or MRSA colonization by over 3.4x.

Understanding Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) & Clinical Biomarkers

Antimicrobial Resistance occurs when bacteria evolve to withstand medications designed to eliminate them. When first-line antibiotics fail due to resistance, treatments become less effective, leading to prolonged illness, higher healthcare costs, and elevated mortality.

Prior Antibiotic Exposure

Patients taking broad-spectrum antibiotics within 90 days harbor altered microbiome flora, giving resistant strains competitive advantage over susceptible organisms.

WBC & Neutrophil Shift

Leukocytosis (WBC >12,000 cells/mcL) combined with a left-shift (neutrophils >80%) indicates acute bacterial burden requiring immediate targeted bactericidal therapy.

CRP & Procalcitonin

Elevated Procalcitonin (>0.5 ng/mL) specifically differentiates severe bacterial infection from viral origin, preventing unnecessary antibiotic overprescribing.
