Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical challenge to global public health. Effective antibiotic stewardship requires precise tools to quantify antibiotic use and assess antimicrobial pressure. This study explores the development and clinical utility of the Days of Antibiotic Spectrum Coverage (DASC) metric, which integrates the breadth of antimicrobial activity with days of therapy. A narrative review and integrative systems design approach were adopted to evaluate the applicability and limitations of DASC. We propose a smart biomedical engineering framework that incorporates automated data integration, localized ASC calibration, AI-based resistance risk prediction, and integration with clinical decision support systems. This architecture aims to enhance DASC’s sensitivity, interpretability, and clinical utility. DASC has the potential to serve as a core indicator for antimicrobial stewardship, enabling real-time, precision-driven decision support. Its successful implementation will require interdisciplinary collaboration and a robust information system infrastructure. |
