Economic Costing of bacteriology testing in Sierra Leone for Sustainability of Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) Surveillance: a micro-costing analysis

2026-06-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens Sierra Leone’s public health, driven in part by limited routine Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing (AST), implying extensive empirical regimens, which could fail, prolong hospital stays, and increase mortality. Given the limited domestic health budgets and uncertain donor support, this study identified the costs and cost components of...
