<p>The United Kingdom’s five-year antimicrobial resistance (AMR) strategy, published
in January 2019, includes the commitment to develop a real-time patient level data
source of a patient’s infection, treatment and resistance history which will be used
to inform their treatment and the development of interventions to tackle severe infection,
sepsis and AMR. This commitment was reaffirmed in the open consultation ‘Advancing
our health: prevention in the 2020s’, published by the Department and Cabinet Office
on 22 July 2019.</p><p>Public Health England continues to raise awareness of the signs
and symptoms of sepsis by building sepsis messaging into the national Start4life Information
Service for Parents email programme which targets parents of zero to five-year olds.
Any nationally supported campaigns must be aimed at appropriate audiences and deliver
measurable outcomes. The Department looks to NHS England and NHS Improvement’s Cross-System
Sepsis Programme Board, which brings together a group of front-line experts from across
the health and care system including the UK Sepsis Trust, for advice on the best interventions
to improve patient outcomes.</p><p>NHS England and NHS Improvement will consider other
recommendations of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Sepsis Annual Report 2019
in the context of its overall work on infection prevention.</p>
