Antimicrobial Resistance, Sepsis, and the Invisible Threats to Women’s Health focuses on the burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and sepsis on women's health, providing the latest information to educate both global researchers and healthcare professionals. The book begins by introducing the fundamental concepts of antimicrobial resistance and sepsis, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of their impact on women's health. It examines the epidemiology of sepsis and antimicrobial resistance in women, highlighting key risk factors, research gaps, reproductive health, antimicrobial resistance, and sepsis in detail, and further emphasizing their disproportionate impact on women's health. Additional coverage includes strategies for recruiting women in clinical trials and research studies, exploring the One Health approach integrating women's health into the broader context of AMR and sepsis and the role of artificial intelligence and technology in combating AMR and sepsis. The book concludes with case studies of female patients and their families affected by AMR and sepsis.
