1 Winter is Coming: An Overview of the DoD s Multidrug Resistant Organism Repository and Surveillance Network (MRSN) CPT Joshua G. Martinez, MT(AMT) Laboratory Manager/Quality Assurance Manager Disclaimer The views expressed in this presentation are those of the speaker and authors, and do not reflect the official policy of the Department of Army, Department of Defense, or U.S. Government Learning Objectives Understand the role of the MRSN and how it is involved in infection control Understand the importance of participating in a MDRO surveillance program to reduce potential future MDROs and/or outbreaks Understand the concept of antibiotic stewardship and how the MRSN can play a significant role within any medical treatment facility 1

12 Summary Be prepared! The MRSN/ARMoR program is the only large-scale repository of MDR bacterial isolates within the U.S. DoD, derived mainly from patients within the MHS located throughout the world. CAP-certified clinical laboratory; molecular lab with DNA sequencing and bioinformatics capabilities. Produce specific and aggregate reports, including 48hr support for outbreak investigations; unique collaborations allow for correlation of MRSN isolate data with AMR and antibiotic use metadata. Public-facing website in development for access to ARMoR-D.
