iSHARP – Integrated Stewardship in Hospitals for Antimicrobial Resistance Control Platform
Hospital-acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remain major challenges for the healthcare system in Viet Nam. Although the Ministry of Health has issued multiple national strategies and guidelines on antimicrobial stewardship (AMS), infection prevention and control (IPC), and AMR surveillance up to 2030, implementation at provincial and district hospitals still faces certain challenges, particularly in the context of uneven resources and infrastructure. In practice, hospitals already operate multiple data systems that mainly serve specific professional purposes; as a result, data connectivity and integrated use across systems have not yet been fully harmonized or optimized.
