| Abstract | Slowing the emergence of antimicrobial resistance is essential to ensuring antimicrobials remain an effective treatment for infections. Professor Dame Sally Davies, the UK Chief Medical Officer, has compared the threat posed by resistance to that from global terrorism. Antimicrobial use is a key driver of antimicrobial resistance, so reducing unnecessary prescriptions is a high priority. NICE has developed guidance aimed at optimising prescribing within publically-funded health and care services. With primary care dentists responsible for 5% of all NHS antibacterial prescriptions, the dental community has a role to play in guarding the effectiveness of antibacterial drugs. This article describes three recent NICE publications that have implications for dentists. Antimicrobial Stewardship: Systems and Processes (NG 15) is an overarching guideline for the NHS aimed at commissioners and providers of health and care services, together with more specific guidance for prescribers. Prophylaxis against infective endocarditis (CG64) was reissued in 2015 following a review of the latest evidence prompted by concerns that the incidence of infective endocarditis had increased since initial publication of CG64 in 2008. Changing risk-related behaviours of the public in relation to expectations for antimicrobial prescriptions is currently in production (PHG89) . This paper outlines the key recommendations from these NICE guidelines as they relate to the dental community. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
