5. But of what resistance are we speaking?

6. Prevent emergence of resistance: but of what resistance?

7. 7 The 4 human risks associated to the use of antibiotics in veterinary medicine to minimize 1.Decrease in susceptibility or full resistance of zoonotic pathogens passing from animal to man either directly or throughout the food chain 2.Development of resistance in commensal flora and passage of resistance gene throughout the food chain or the environment 3.Release of antibiotics in the environment with different consequences including emergence of resistance (gene, pathogens) 4.Antibiotic residues in food

8. Q1-For AR, what are the critical veterinary ecosystems in terms of public health (commensals)

17. It was shown that antibiotic resistance genes increased in abundance and diversity in the medicated swine microbiome despite a high background of resistance genes in nonmedicated swine. Some enriched genes, demonstrated the potential for indirect selection of resistance to classes of antibiotics not fed.

20. Q2-What is the actual veterinary contribution to the human AR

21. What is the actual veterinary contribution to the human AR 1.A direct contribution to resistance for zoonotic pathogens (Salmonella, Campylobacter…) 2.A possible transmission of commensal bacteria that may transmit resistance determinants to human pathogens 3.An indirect contribution for MRSA (pets as carriers and reservoirs)

23. Reported zoonoses in UE, 2010 23 VTEC: E Coli verotoxinogène Within Y. enterocolitica, the majority of isolates from food and environmental sources are non-pathogenic types.

24. Deaths due to salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis & E coli (report2010) Based on the reported fatality rates and the total numbers of reported confirmed cases, it is estimated that there were approximately 130 deaths due to salmonellosis, 212 due to campylobacteriosis and 16 due to E coli in EU. 24

25. Treatments of salmonellosis & campylobacteriosis Usually no antibiotics Only to treat sever cases in a risky patients 25

26. Antibiotics used to treat salmonellosis & campylobacteriosis Salmonella –Fluoroquinolones –Cephalosporins (third generation) –No quinolones for children Campylobacter – Macrolides –Fluoroquinolones

27. Antibiotics used to treat Verotoxigenic E coli The use of antimicrobials for the treatment of human infections with VTEC is controversial. In general, antimicrobials are not recommended as their usage may exacerbate symptoms, particularly haemolytic uraemic syndrome. 27

32. Whilst there has been much debate about the contribution of antibiotic use in veterinary medicine to the overall resistance development in human pathogens, these data suggest that clinical resistance to fluoroquinolones in E. coli and nontyphoidal Salmonella is uncommon, except for a few countries.

37. 37 Q3: What are the transmission pathways between animals and man

38. 38 Pathways of transmission between animals and man Slaughter house meat Direct professional risk Soil Water Air 3 possible pathways Environment

39. 39 Campylobacter: prevalence The food chain is a critical pathway for resistance transmission of resistance from animal to man Prevalence: 60- 100% in feces Prevalence: 0-32% for carcass Prevalence: 0- <5% for meat

40. Prevalence of salmonella contamination (EU 2009) 40 The high prevalence in poultry is due to some anatomical and physiological specificcity

41. Several critical steps when processing chickens Feed withdrawal –Not too long, not too short Collecting and transportation of the chickens –Stacked several raw high and top to bottom contamination during transportation Feather removal –Scalding tanks to remove the feather Removal of the internal organs –Carcass contamination

42. Transportation of poultry –Campylobacter : Top to bottom contamination by feces during transportation

43. Feather removal in a contaminated environment by feces (scald tank)

44. Contamination of the carcass During evisceration, some degree of faecal contamination is inevitable no matter how stringent the hygiene measures that are applied

45. 45 Direct transfer from animal to man (professional risk ) Also direct contact with antibiotic

46. The case of Methicillin- Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) 46

47. MRSA

48. MRSA prevalence in animals There are differences in the occurrence of MRSA between companion animals (pets and horses) and livestock (mostly pigs, poultry, cattle and sheep).

49. MRSA: animal reservoir The most common MRSA isolates from animals are ST398, the main reservoirs being pigs and veal calves. –This type, which is also isolated from chickens and horses, can be transferred to humans. –There is a limited overlap with humans, and transmission to humans is rare. – Most isolates are multidrug resistant, and some PVL- positive isolates are found. MRSA is rarely found in meat and then only in low quantities; the source is thought to be the butcher/meat handler rather than animals

50. MRSA in pigs The prevalence of MRSA-positive herds was 67% in breeding herds and 71% in finishing herds. The most likely explanation for the observed increase in MRSA-positive herds is that MRSA is easily transmitted between herds (e.g. when purchasing animals).

51. MRSA in pigs

52. MRSA: Risk factor analysis

53. Risk factor analysis Multivariable logistic regression analysis was then performed on data from 171 breeding herds. The number of MRSA-positive herds increased from ∼ 30% at the start to ∼ 75% at the end of the study, most likely due to transmission between herds. The prevalence of MRSA increased with herd size, as ∼ 40% of smaller herds ( 80% of larger herds (>500 sows). Other risk factors (e.g. antimicrobial use, purchase of gilts and hygiene measures) were not significantly associated with MRSA, though associated with herd size. Herd size appeared to be a compilation of several factors, which made larger herds more often MRSA positive

54. MRSA carriage in veal calves Prevalence in veal calf far higher than in adult cow. A study carried out on 102 farms in the Netherlands found that 28% of calves carried MRSA and 88% of the farms sampled had calves with MRSA. The farmers and their family members were also sampled, and 33% of the farmers carried MRSA but only 8% of family members. –The isolates from both animals and humans belonged to the clonal complex ST398.

55. MRSA in calf Studies in humans show an association between antimicrobial use and the occurrence of MRSA, and batch-treated calves were more often MRSA positive than untreated calves

56. Pfizer Paris 2009 - 56 MRSA colonization is an occupational risk for veterinary professionals To read the full article MRSA was isolated from nares of 27/417 (6.5%) attendees at an international veterinary conference: 23/345 (7.0%) veterinarians, 4/34 (12.0%) technicians, and 0/38 others.

65. 65 Sewage management is in order Anaerobic digestion destroyed only 59% of oxytetracycline in manures in 64 days. However, composting destroyed 95% of oxytetracyline in manures within first week. Also, levels of oxytetracycline resistant bacteria were 10-fold lower

66. 66 Hazard due to the presence of antibiotic residues in food No public health issue – No observance of the withdrawal time – Inappropriate withdrawal time (generics) – Surveillance from the french ministery Positive sample: 0.3% for antibiotics and 0.4% for sulfamides Many control for milk (technological risk for chees production etc.)

90. For a same dose of marbofloxacin, early treatments (10 hours after the infection) were associated to – more frequent clinical cure – more frequent bacteriological cure – less frequent selection of resistant bacteria than late treatments (32 hours after the infection) Conclusion Early administrations were more favourable than late administrations

91. Metaphylaxis and Very Early Treatment (VET) I suggest to replace metaphylaxis by VET because metaphylaxis convey negative values – Confuse with mass treatment, – Confuse with prophylaxis

92. When to finish a treatment? ASAP Should be determined in clinics Should be when clinical cure is actually achieved Should not be a hidden prophylactic treatment for a possible next infectious episode
