“…Various methods for collecting data are presented in academic studies. These include farm-level surveys/questionnaires [ 51 , 52 ], farm and veterinary records [ 53 , 54 ] and garbage can audits [ 53 , 55 ], which is a methodology in which all packaging is collected and audited. Studies that tested the agreement between methods show a lack of consistency between data sources [ 53 , 54 ], but the methods involving software are better than manual collection [ 54 ], and one found almost perfect agreement between a garbage can audit and data collected from veterinary invoices [ 53 ].…”

The aim of this paper is to explore and assess various strategies for monitoring antimicrobial consumption (AMC) in animals, within the context of the One Health approach. Recent studies have shed light on the limited surveillance and data collection for AMC in animals. Using the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention Policy Analytical Framework, we assess global, national, and farm-level surveillance strategies on public health impact and feasibility using evidence from primary, secondary, and grey literature. From this, we identify key policy mechanisms that support the adoption of surveillance while providing specific recommendations. We find that a global strategy, though valuable for benchmarking and policy guidance, faces participation and data visibility challenges. National-level surveillance offers direct inputs into national action plans but struggles with data uniformity and comparability. Farm-level surveillance, while resource-intensive, provides the most granular data for informing specific interventions. We advocate for a multi-faceted approach to AMC surveillance, emphasizing that legal mandates and financial incentives are crucial for encouraging surveillance participation, along with international cooperation for enhancing participation and data quality. Drawing parallels with public reporting challenges in other sectors can provide valuable lessons on how to address data collection, analysis, and reporting barriers.

“…Although different metrics are often correlated, use of one metric may lead to different conclusions than another, and metrics can be selectively used to make a particular point about AMU. 4, [33][34][35][36][37] In the animal arena, because animal species have different products labeled for their use, dosing regimens, and disease challenges, AMU cannot be compared across sectors. 28 In fact, it can be difficult to compare across different types of production systems within a species sector.…”

A ntimicrobial stewardship has been defined for the veterinary profession as "the actions veterinarians take individually and as a profession to preserve the effectiveness and availability of antimicrobial drugs through conscientious oversight and responsible medical decision-making while safeguarding animal, public, and environmental health." 1 These actions may include making a commitment in one's veterinary practice by assigning a staff member to track stewardship activities, selecting antimicrobials in a judicious and evidence-based manner, or attending continuing education about antimicrobial use (AMU) decisionmaking. The AVMA has outlined 5 core principles of antimicrobial stewardship. Two important stewardship activities include evaluating AMU practices (Core Principle No. 2) and assessing outcomes of AMU (Core Principle No. 4). To accomplish these activities, veterinarians and their partners in animal health are being urged to work together to develop methods of collecting and evaluating AMU data.
