2AI&7D Model of Resistomics to Counter the Accelerating Antibiotic Resistance and the Medical Climate Crisis

The antimicrobial resistance (AMR) crisis is referred to as ‘Medical Climate Crisis’. Inappropriate use of antimicrobial drugs is driving the resistance evolution in pathogenic microorganisms. In 2014 it was estimated that by 2050 more people will die due to antimicrobial resistance compared to cancer. It will cause a reduction of 2% to 3.5% in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and cost the world up to 100 trillion USD. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics for COVID-19 patients has accelerated the resistance rate. COVID-19 reduced the window of opportunity for the fight against AMR. This man-made crisis can only be averted through accurate actionable antibiotic knowledge, usage, and a knowledge driven Resistomics. In this paper, we present the 2AI (Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Intelligence) and 7D (right Diagnosis, right Disease-causing-agent, right Drug, right Dose, right Duration, right Documentation, and De-escalation) model of antibiotic stewardship. The resistance related integrated knowledge of resistomics is stored as a knowledge graph in a Neo4j properties graph database for 24 × 7 access. This actionable knowledge is made available through smartphones and the Web as a Progressive Web Applications (PWA). The 2AI&7D Model delivers the right knowledge at the right time to the specialists and non-specialist alike at the point-of-action (Stewardship committee, Smart Clinic, and Smart Hospital) and then delivers the actionable accurate knowledge to the healthcare provider at the point-of-care in realtime.
