Abstract excerpt
We have recently characterised the epidemiology of P. aeruginosa blood stream infection (BSI) in a large retrospective multicentre cohort study [1]. Utilising corresponding patient BSI isolates we aimed to characterise the genotypic virulence profile of the P. aeruginosa isolates that were associated with rapid death in the non-neutropenic host. Five P. aeruginosa BSI episodes were identified from a larger cohort...
