|ResearchHighly drug-resistant pathogens implicated in burn-associated bacteremia in an Iraqi burn care unit
Abstract
In low- and middle-income countries, bloodstream infections are an important cause of mortality in patients with burns. Increasingly implicated in burn-associated infections are highly drug-resistant pathogens with limited treatment options. We describe the epidemiology of bloodstream infections in patients with burns in a humanitarian surgery project in Iraq.
