Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global health concern addressed through a One Health approach that examines its presence and transmission among humans, animals, and the environment. In commercial poultry farms, antibiotics are widely used for disease treatment and growth promotion, contributing to the development of resistance. In Nepal, information on AMR in poultry-associated Staphylococcus aureus remains limited. The emergence of methicillin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus strains in both humans and poultry represents a serious public health threat. This study investigated the prevalence of multidrug-resistant S. aureus and the distribution of key resistance genes in litter and soil samples from poultry farms in the Kathmandu Valley.

👉 Publication Notice
Pleased to share the publication of our research study in KUMJ. The work was in collaboration between CHDS, EDCD, Sukraraj Tropical Hospital and Ministry of Health, GoN.
The study concludes: Given that
COVID-19 patients manifest symptoms resembling many tropical infectious diseases,
the study underscores the clinical importance of testing for multiple circulating
infections in patients from endemic areas. This approach ensures appropriate and
timely management reducing the risk of severity or mortality.
