Table 1. Study inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Inclusion criteria
Blood culture is positive for non- Salmonella Enterobacterales or Acinetobacter *
Patient is an inpatient at QECH or can be contacted for admission or assessment
Exclusion criteria
Blood culture is positive for Salmonella enterica (any serovariant)
Patient is unable to provide informed consent and there is no representative to provide informed consent
Patient speaks neither English or Chichewa

*During the set-up period for the study, it became clear that 3GC-R Acinetobacter spp. were an emerging problem at QECH, particularly amongst neonates. Acinetobacter are closely related to Enterobacterales, often sharing similar AMR profiles, and given their importance as a nosocomial pathogen, these patients will be included. However for analysis purposes we may do the primary analysis on the whole cohort and then Enterobacterales alone
