dynamic assessment to guide fluid therapy was associated with reduced mortality (RR 0.59; 95% CI 0.42–0.83), ICU length of stay (MD −1.16 days; 95% CI −1.97 to −0.36), and
To assess Gram-positive bacterial (GPB) bloodstream infection (BSI) in neonates, covering incidence, morbidity, mortality, antimicrobial resistance pattern
S. epidermidis is an important reservoir of drug resistance genes, which they can transfer to S. aureus and Enterococcus spp., thereby driving the emergence of more virulent hospital-associated strains, particularly methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) [142,143]. The high genetic heterogeneity ...
Objective: This study was performed to determine the prevalence of MDRO in the ICU, the site of infection, and the association of MDRO or site of infection with mortality. The secondary outcome was determined by ascertaining the association of MDRO or site of infection with ICU-LOS. Methods: ...
This suggests that secondary adjusted antibiotic therapy had no disadvantage in VAPs in this population. In addition to the concordance of colonization and infectious agents, many studies are primarily concerned with the identification of risk factors for the acquisition of MDR bacte- ria. We found ...
