Infection Prevention & Antimicrobial Stewardship Programme

Why it matters

Infection prevention and antimicrobial resistance are system problems: they depend on recognition, isolation, cultures, prescribing, stock, exposure history, facility signals, and audit. WHO IPC and AMR guidance emphasizes core components, antimicrobial stewardship, surveillance, and patient-safety systems.

InBasket AI keeps this programme pathway connected to one continuous patient record so a small care team can work from a single, trustworthy source of truth — part of expanding access to care for the next billion people.

Designed with reference to recognized global, national, and clinical standards

This care area is designed with reference to a standards ecosystem, including global guidance, national protocols, specialty-society recommendations, interoperability standards, and programme reporting requirements where applicable:

• WHO infection prevention and control core components
• WHO global action plan on antimicrobial resistance
• CDC / ECDC infection-control and antimicrobial-stewardship guidance where locally adopted
• National IPC, AMR surveillance, AWaRe, culture, antibiotic, and facility-outbreak reporting requirements
• National Ministry of Health standard treatment guidelines, essential medicines lists, and local scope-of-practice rules for the implementation setting
• HL7 FHIR, ICD-10, LOINC, SNOMED CT, and local terminology/coding standards where adopted
• National programme registers, surveillance definitions, DHIS2 or equivalent reporting requirements, and donor-reporting mappings where adopted
