| Popis: | Background: Educational interventions targeting undergraduate medical students provide a great opportunity to strengthen the efforts to promote rational prescribing and to decrease antimicrobial resistance. A better understanding of knowledge and beliefs of students about issues of antimicrobial use and resistance, and analysing the improvement after educational session, can assist in devising an effectively tailored educational intervention. The objective of this study was to comparison of knowledge and attitude about antimicrobial prescribing and awareness about resistance amongst medical, dental and nursing undergraduates before and after an educational session on antimicrobial use and resistance. Methods: A pre-validated questionnaire on knowledge and attitude about antimicrobial use and resistance was distributed to second year medical (80), dental (61) and nursing (37) students before and after an educational session. Results obtained were compared within and between the groups by using paired t-test and one-way ANOVA respectively. P-value |
