In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is recognized as one of the major threats to global health \[1\], causing up to 25.000 deaths in the European Union every year, longer hospitalizations and increased healthcare costs. It is well known that antimicrobial use is the main driving force towards AMR and up to 50% of antimicrobial prescriptions are either inappropriate or unnecessary \[2\]. It is then important to understand how to optimize antimicrobial usage not only in adults but also in infants, as they show different resistance patterns and have peculiar characteristics that may lead to incorrect administration and alteration of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the drug \[3\]. Antimicrobials are the most prescribed drugs in children \[4\]\[5\] and this excessive usage has been recorded not only in developed countries, but also in low-income and middle-income ones \[6\].
