抗生素耐药性（AMR）是影响动物和人类医学的全球公共卫生问题。家禽生产是许多赞比亚人的主要收入来源之一。然而，对家禽产品需求的增加导致了随后抗菌剂使用的增加。本研究评估了赞比亚蛋鸡养殖户对抗生素耐药性的认识及其相关因素。于2020年9月至2021年4月期间对77名参与者进行了横断面研究。使用Stata版本16.1分析数据。农民对抗生素耐药性的总体知晓率为47%（n = 36）。蛋鸡生产中抗生素的使用率高达86%（n = 66）。大多数抗生素是在没有处方的情况下从agrovets（31%，n = 24）和药店（21%，n = 16）获得的。与中等规模的农民相比，商业农民更有可能意识到AMR（OR = 14.07，95%CI：2.09-94.70），使用处方获得抗生素的农民与未使用处方获得抗生素的农民相比，（OR = 99.66，95%CI：7.14-1391.65），未使用抗生素治疗上市家禽的农民与使用抗生素治疗的农民相比，（OR = 41.92，95%CI：1.26-1396.36）。部分蛋鸡养殖户对抗生素耐药性的知晓率较低。因此，促进抗生素合理使用的政策需要与旨在遏制AMR的加强监测活动一起实施。
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health problem affecting animal and human medicine. Poultry production is among the primary sources of income for many Zambians. However, the increased demand for poultry products has led to a subsequent increase in antimicrobial use. This study assessed the awareness of AMR and associated factors among layer poultry farmers in Zambia. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 77 participants from September 2020 to April 2021. Data was analysed using Stata version 16.1. The overall awareness of AMR among the farmers was 47% (n = 36). The usage of antibiotics in layer poultry production was high at 86% (n = 66). Most antibiotics were accessed from agrovets (31%, n = 24) and pharmacies (21%, n = 16) without prescriptions. Commercial farmers were more likely to be aware of AMR compared to medium-scale farmers (OR = 14.07, 95% CI: 2.09–94.70), as were farmers who used prescriptions to access antibiotics compared to those who did not (OR = 99.66, 95% CI: 7.14–1391.65), and farmers who did not treat market-ready birds with antibiotics compared to those who did (OR = 41.92, 95% CI: 1.26–1396.36). The awareness of AMR among some layer farmers was low. Therefore, policies that promote the rational use of antibiotics need to be implemented together with heightened surveillance activities aimed at curbing AMR.
