Antibiotic resistance in Bangladesh: A systematic review

Abstract: Background: Antibiotic resistance (ABR) is a worldwide problem and Bangladesh is a major contributor to this owing to its poor healthcare standards, along with the misuse and overuse of antibiotics. This systematic review was conducted to summarize the present scenario of ABR in Bangladesh, to identify gaps in surveillance, and to provide recommendations based on the findings. Methods: Google Scholar, PubMed, and Bangladesh Journals Online were searched using relevant keywords to identify articles related to A… Show more

“…Studies show that low-income countries like Bangladesh are more affected by AMR because of the widespread misuse of antibiotics, non-human antibiotic use, poor quality of drugs, inadequate surveillance and factors associated with individual and national poverty indicators like poor healthcare standards, malnutrition, chronic and repeated infections, unaffordability of more effective and costly drugs [9, 10]. Research regarding antibiotic resistance epidemiology may ultimately guide to interventions for AMR.…”

“…Among them, food from animal sources, especially poultry is in main list. Due to its potential to cause enteric disease, the detection of Salmonella isolates in poultry is of great concern which are globally recognized as food borne zoonoses (52, 55, 56). The severity and length of such diseases could reduce by antimicrobial therapeutics in human (53) and poultry as well (57, 58).…”

“…Epidemiological surveillance of resistance to antibiotics is essential in developing countries like Bangladesh where infections caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria which have resulted in increased morbidity and mortality [19][20]. Antibiotic resistance is an increasingly serious threat in Bangladesh which is most likely a result of unrestricted use of antimicrobial drugs [21][22].…”
