Coupled with insufficient investment in discovering new treatments, multidrug-resistant infections are an increasingly urgent public health concern.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo curb the growth of antibiotic resistance and prevent major morbidity and mortality from multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, the overuse of antibiotics must be addressed and research and development for antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action actively promoted. This requires appropriately designed incentives for health and regulatory systems, in addition to economic incentives to attract academic interest and industry investment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, commissioned by the Swedish Government from the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, analyzes many proposed policies and incentive mechanisms and sheds light on the key issues that will help policy-makers reach informed, concrete decisions on how to avert this potential public health crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elias Mossialos,Chantal Morel,Suzanne Edwards\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9289042133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789289042130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Health Organization\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/06\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.60d","brand":"Elias Mossialos","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450183430399,"sku":"9789289042130","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4ab7132d-fe5e-4b1f-9677-3b61a135d561.jpg?v=1777266563","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/policies-and-incentives-for-promoting-elias-mossialos-9789289042130","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
