- Abstract
Despite the single-room structure, which is unusual in many countries, 271 events of MDRB colonisation or infection occurred in 217 of the included 750 patients (29%). Multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB) are a significant threat in modern medicine and are responsible for many healthcare-related infections. However, data from critically ill patients colonised with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae indicate that these organisms accounted for relatively few infections (e.g. 15% of infections diagnosed at the time of ICU admission, and 10% and 27% of first and second episodes of ICU-acquired infections) [[9]].
