EASSI-PC Newsletter - Issue 2
EASSI-PC is advancing antimicrobial stewardship through practical, evidence-based strategies for Australian general practice. This issue explores lessons from implementing AMS interventions at scale, highlights patient-centred resources supporting shared decision-making, provides Therapeutic Guidelines insights on sinusitis, and offers opportunities for GPs to engage in national research and education initiatives.
Antimicrobial stewardship is most effective when evidence, education, and clinical practice work together. This edition of the EASSI-PC newsletter showcases Australian research exploring sustainable strategies to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use, including insights into implementing educational interventions across primary care settings. Readers will also discover co-developed patient information tools that support shared decision-making, practical guidance on antibiotic use for acute rhinosinusitis, and opportunities to participate in the national EASSI-PC trial and upcoming GP education sessions. By supporting collaboration, research, and practice-based learning, EASSI-PC continues to empower GPs to strengthen antimicrobial stewardship across Australia. Click here to access the full newsletter
