Description:$673,763 Funding for AR Activities Fiscal Year 2017
Funding to local health departments:
$481,569 - RAPID DETECTION & RESPONSE to emerging drug-resistant germs is critical to contain the spread of these infections. With 2016 funding, Kansas worked with partners to increase the number of healthcare facilities reporting to National Healthcare Safety Network from 80 to 182. This data sharing increases the state’s capacity to use timely and accurate data to target its HAI/AR prevention and response efforts.
$192,194 - FOOD SAFETY projects protect communities by rapidly identifying drug-resistant foodborne bacteria to stop and solve outbreaks and improve prevention. In Fiscal Year 2018, Kansas will ramp up testing to include whole genome sequencing of all Listeria, Salmonella, Campylobacter and E. coli isolates and simultaneously monitor these isolates for resistance genes. States upload the sequence data into PulseNet for nationwide monitoring of outbreaks and trends. When outbreaks are detected, local CDC-supported epidemiologists investigate the cases to stop spread.
