AMR オンラインセミナー 「耐性百日咳の現状から見る小児感染症診療の課題と展望」

2024年末から日本国内で百日咳が流行しています。百日咳は、百日咳菌（Bordetella pertussis）による急性呼吸器感染症であり、乳幼児期の子どもで重症化しやすく、生命を脅かす恐れのある深刻な疾患です。そのなかでも、特にマクロライド系抗菌薬と呼ばれる治療薬に耐性を示す「耐性百日咳」の流行が相次いで報告されており、日本小児科学会や国立健康危機管理研究機構も注意を呼びかけています。

こうした背景を踏まえ、日本医療政策機構およびAMRアライアンス・ジャパンでは、薬剤耐性の問題を小児医療の視点から多角的に捉え直し、より広く社会に共有することを目的として、本セミナーを実施します。今回は、小児感染症学会として長年AMRアライアンス・ジャパンにもご参画いただいている尾内一信先生と、これまで小児医療・救急医療領域で市民社会の立場からアドボカシー活動をけん引されてきた阿真京子氏をお迎えし、耐性百日咳をはじめ、小児医療、AMR対策の課題についてお話いただきます。

「耐性百日咳」の流行という具体的なトピックを起点に、薬剤耐性問題が子どもたちの健康、そして将来の医療や社会に与える影響について考え、皆様ともに理解を深める機会としたいと思います。

(Webinar) AMR Online Seminar “Current Status of Drug-Resistant Pertussis: Challenges and Prospects in Pediatric Infectious Disease Care” (May 15, 2025)
*Please note that this seminar is available in Japanese only.

Since the end of 2024, pertussis has been spreading throughout Japan. Pertussis is an acute respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis, which can become severe in infants and young children and is a serious disease that can be life-threatening. Within this context, there have been successive reports of outbreaks of "drug-resistant pertussis," which shows resistance to macrolide antibiotics, and both the Japan Pediatric Society and the Japan Institute for Health Security. have issued warnings.

Based on this background, Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) and AMR Alliance Japan will hold this online seminar to reconsider the issue of antimicrobial resistance from a pediatric healthcare perspective and share it more widely with society. For this seminar, we will welcome Dr. Kazunobu Ouchi, who has been involved with AMR Alliance Japan for many years as the Japanese Society for Pediatric Infectious Diseases, and Ms. Kyoko Ama, who has been leading advocacy activities from a civil society perspective in the fields of pediatric and emergency medicine. They will discuss the challenges of pediatric healthcare and AMR countermeasures, including drug-resistant pertussis.

Starting from the specific topic of the outbreak of "drug-resistant pertussis," we would like to consider the impact of antimicrobial resistance on children's health and the future of healthcare and society and deepen our understanding together.
