Antimicrobial resistance is a major threat to the well-being of patients and health systems the world over. In fragile health systems so challenged, on a day-today basis, by the overwhelming burden of both infectious and non-communicable disease, it is easy to overlook the impacts of AMR. The Maternal Sepsis Intervention, focusing on a primary cause of maternal death in Uganda, demonstrates the systemic nature of AMR and the gains that can be made through improved Infection Prevention Control and direct engagement of laboratory testing in antibiotic prescribing.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLouise Ackers holds a Chair in Global Social Justice at the University of Salford, UK, and has recently been appointed as a consultant for the World Health Organization.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eGavin Ackers-Johnson is Researcher at the University of Salford, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eJoanne Welsh is Researcher at the University of Salford, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSamuel Opio is Secretary General of the Pharmaceutical Society of Uganda.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDaniel Kibombo is a Microbiologist at Fort Portal Regional Referral Hospital and the Infectious Disease Institute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 November 2020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUniversity of Salford Manchester\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePalgrave Macmillan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783030626617\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e191\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"University of Salford Manchester","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50805786509452,"sku":"9783030626617","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030626617.jpg?v=1781792315","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030626617","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
