An invitation to participate in the ESCMID/ISC Worldwide Antimicrobial Stewardship Survey
Dear Colleague
ESCMID/ISC Worldwide Antimicrobial Stewardship Survey
On behalf of ESGAP [ESCMID STUDY GROUP FOR ANTIBIOTIC POLICIES] & ISC [INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR CHEMOTHERAPY], we invite you to complete the first worldwide survey on Antimicrobial Stewardship. The survey is based on previous national surveys from around the world, and has been piloted and refined across all five continents. The results will be presented at each both ISC & ESCMID meetings, and data will be available to allow continental, national and local benchmarking of antimicrobial stewardship programmes.
We would like one person from each hospital to complete the survey. It would be helpful, where appropriate, if you could disseminate this survey link through your contacts or organisations. The survey uses the web-based software SurveyMonkey®. It will take between 30 to 45 minutes to complete the survey completely. Could you please complete the survey NO LATER THAN MARCH 19TH 2012. After this time we will not be able to include your data in the analysis for ECCMID 2012 but we are still happy to hear from you. THE FINAL DEADLINE DATE IS 10/4/2012.
We have also sent you a PDF version (CLICK here) of the survey to allow people to know what information is needed (click on icon on right), but we need the survey completed on line to analyse the results.
The link to the survey is http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/ESCMID-ISC-AMS
