Abstract
Background and Aims: Salmonella considered as one of the most important causes of foodborne disease and one of the public health problems around the world. Antibiotic resistance in salmonella is currently one of the most important concerns because it can put human and animal health at serious risk. The purpose of this paper is to review the existing literature on the epidemiology, Factors affecting the occurrence of the disease, vaccine and antibiotic resistance.
Materials and Methods: In this study, every domestic and several international databases between 2000 and 2017 with sensitive keywords such as Salmonella, Epidemiology, Antibiotic Resistance, Prevention and Vaccine were reviewed. The researchers evaluated 150 articles and finally 77 articles were reviewed. In this study, antibiotic resistance percentages with 95% confidence interval were reported.
Results: A total 472 samples was included in this systematic review. The average antibiotic resistance was 34.2% (95% C.I: 20.33- 20.23%).
Conclusion: Due to increased antibiotic resistance to salmonella strains, more extensive studies are needed to determine the dimensions of this challenge and to consider the rational use of antibiotics..
