Antimicrobial resistance is recognized as a top public health threat and is estimated to be directly responsible for 5,400 deaths and $1.4 billion in health care costs in Canada in 2018 which underlines the critical importance of wise prescribing of antibiotics. Every time I prescribe an antibiotic now, I check the Bugs & Drugs guidelines via PathwaysBC.ca.
We all used PathwaysBC.ca to help us find specialists for our patients, to look up wait times and what information to include in a referral, but we learned that Pathways could help streamline our clinical work in so many more ways.
