EARSS
The European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (EARSS) is the first independent long-term project to
be focused on antimicrobial resistance (AR) of invasive isolates at both the national and European levels. The
international EARSS network of the national surveillance systems was created by the European Union EU organizing and
supporting this project in the EU member states only. The EARSS activities have been coordinated by the National
Institute of Public Health and the Environment, Bilthoven, the Netherlands (RIVM). The objectives of this Project are
collection of comparable and valid data on AR for the needs of public health of participating countries and early
identification of AR newly emerging in Europe.
