BackEntry title:

Antimicrobial resistance in E. coli bacteriuria added to the dashboard

Last updated on Thursday, 31 July 2025 at 12:12pm

Entry category: New metric
Entry description:

More data has been added to the dashboard under the Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) theme. This includes data for antimicrobial resistance to E. coli bacteriuria (bacteria in urine samples).

Timely monitoring of susceptibility test results for Escherichia coli (E. coli) supports the government’s 5-year action plan on confronting antimicrobial resistance.

Sharing this data will help to identify emerging trends in AMR. Antimicrobials presented in this metric have been selected due to their clinical importance when treating E. coli infections in urine specimens.
