GLASS early implementation protocol for inclusion of Candida spp.
Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS)
6 September 2019
| Technical document

Overview
This early implementation protocol was developed to support countries to
strengthen or build their national fungal AMR surveillance, and enable
incorporation of AMR surveillance for invasive Candida into GLASS.
The
protocol describes the objectives and methodology, and provides details
of the proposed approach and defined targets for the surveillance of
resistance in Candida BSIs. Using the evidence collected during the
early implementation and the lessons learnt, the protocol will be
finalized, and the Candida spp. resistance surveillance component will
be fully incorporated into GLASS.
