Geographic Mapping of Escherichia coli Susceptibility To Develop a Novel Clinical Decision Support Tool

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) varies regionally. This study longitudinally maps susceptibility leveraging Wisconsin antibiograms (  = 202) collected from 2009, 2013, and 2015 to inform the development of a novel clinical decision support tool. Spatial interpolation methods were tested with suscepti...

Description
Summary:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) varies regionally. This study longitudinally maps susceptibility leveraging Wisconsin antibiograms (  = 202) collected from 2009, 2013, and 2015 to inform the development of a novel clinical decision support tool. Spatial interpolation methods were tested with susceptibilities to create geographic AMR visualizations and to estimate susceptibility in areas without AMR data. These visualizations and an interactive mapping tool, the AMR Tracker, provide a proof of concept for empirical antibiotic treatment decisions.
