The need to improve antimicrobial susceptibility testing capacity in Ugandan health facilities: insights from a surveillance primer

BACKGROUND: Lab-based surveillance (LBS) of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is not systematically implemented in Uganda. We aimed to identify the gaps in establishing regular LBS of AMR in Uganda. METHODS: This was a retrospective records review. It was done at Mulago Hospital (MH) Microbiology Lab (...
