Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the most important bacteria that cause hospital-acquired infections. Therefore, surveillance of the antibiotic resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii is necessary, especial...
متن کاملISOLATION OF LYTIC BACTERIOPHAGE AB72P AGAINST MULTI-DRUG RESISTANT ACINETOBACTER BAUMANNII ISOLATES OBTAINED FROM BURN INFECTION
Background & Aims: Acinetobacter baumannii is a gram-negative pathogen that causes a wide range of hospital-acquired infections. Due to its intrinsic traits and its remarkable abilities to quickly acquire resistance genes, it has become resistant to most antimicrobial agents and a major problem for hospitals. In recent years, application of lytic bacteriophages has been considered to eradicate ...
متن کاملA multi-center study on the risk factors of infection caused by multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) is critical for healthcare-associated infections (HAI) with significant regional differences in the resistance rate, but its risk factors and infection trends has not been well studied. We aimed to explore the risk factors, epidemiological characteristics and resistance of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB) in intensive care unit inpatie...
